Thanks, looks very promissing. Get into it this weekend. This evening was a late one, working at XML webservices, so time was running out. Cya Diane…

Okay. I'd suggest inquiring at weblogtoolscollection.com or, if that doesn't work, at the WordPress Forums. For instance, this search at the WordPress forums might be of help.

You mention a good PHP programmer…Were to find such a person. And what's more, how to define one? Ah well, I will find one I am sure.
I will keep an eye out for more niceties here on 'developedtraffic' :0) Happy blogging Diane.

Yep … that's what I was afraid of. Although it's curious that the post links should display in default mode but not when something category was selected.

If all else fails, you might get a good PHP programmer to take a look. They usually make short work of these things.

Hi Diane, I haven't touched line 134. Other lines I have touched. The line you suggesting for the link to the category titles for instance wasn't right. I changed that one to make it work. It is appr. at line 123. The error was in the $siteurl. That will not work if WP is located somewhere else then in the root. My WP is in a subdir with index.php in the root referring to the subdir. So I changed the link to href=/index.php/category/'.sanitize_title etc.etc. But still I see those ':::::'. I think it has something todo with the way the SQL statements are made. But how.... oh boy, this is beyond me. I found another blog at < href="http://orangepolitics.org/">Orangepolitics. Maybe they can help. Still have to write to them. I will let you know. And hey... compliments are well ment, this IS a very sophsaticated and tasteful website.

I'm wishing I could have been of more help. I'm just thinking that, if you implemented the code as I've shown, then it should work. Since it doesn't (at least, for the Category selection), I'm wondering whether it's perhaps a coding error or a difference in WP2.01. My suggestion would be to look over your code first to see if there are any errors. For instance, I believe I specified a change "around line 134" ... that could be quite different in 2.01. Or perhaps we're changing it to something that doesn't work for 2.01? And ... thanks for the compliments regarding this blog. Much appreciated.

Okay Diane, thanks anyway. I will try elsewhere. Ah yes, I am using WP 2.01.

Martin, I'm not able to go through it at this time. Unless you've seen another WP2.x blog using narchives, it might be that you'll need an updated version of narchives.

Have you tried asking the software writer?

Sorry for the inconvenience Diane. Here is a better one. I think this goes better. Do you mind and have a go at it once more? Thanks!

Actually, your link won't allow me to download just the coding, as the page is parsed via php, so I can't really look at the raw code. Are you using WordPress 2.x? If so, there are some comments about problems on the Weblogtoolscollection.com narchives thread.
