WordPress Blog Add On for Carterlake Templates updated for WP 2.9+

Hi Mike,

My footer.php didn't have the code ...

<?php echo $footer ?>

My footer.php was as follows ...

  <br />
  </div>  <!-- end blog-main -->
   <br class="clearfloat" />

  <!-- End wordpress code -->

<?php
############################################################################
include("../footer.php");
############################################################################
# End of Page
############################################################################
?>

I added the code ...

     <?php
      wp_footer();
      echo $footer
      ?>

... after 'End Wordpress code' and the admin bar appears.

Thanks for your help, now just need to get the gizmo working.

I corrected my post, leave the       echo $footer out

It should look like this:

Code: [Select]

<?php wp_footer(); ?>
 <!-- End wordpress code -->

Changed the code to reflect your new coding, Mike and everything is working as it should.

Thanks!

I still need to get the current conditions on the gizmo working. It works fine on all other pages on my site but all I get on the blog is the large temperature displayed (see here). Anyone have any ideas?

Alan, view the source there is an error tag:
ajax-gizmo not loaded .. no wxtags specified

I am not sure what that means, but
double check all the gizmo settings in step 5

I think we may be getting somewhere here Mike. I have all my data, including clientraw.txt, in a sub-folder of my weather folder called 'data'. So, although the weather site URL is http://www.brackenhouse.net/weather, the path to the data is http://www.brackenhouse.net/weather/data.

Something somewhere is not finding the WXtags because of this. Does that make sense?

If so, we need to tell the program that clientraw.txt testtags.php is located in a folder called 'data' in such a way that it can be found be all the other pages. But how?

SUCCESS !!!

In Settings.php, I changed ...

Code: [Select]

// default settings needed for various pages when the weather software plugin is not installed.
// do not change these
$SITE['WXsoftwareURL'] = '#';
$SITE['WXsoftwareLongName'] = '(unspecified)';
$SITE['WXtags'] = ' ';
to ...

Code: [Select]

// default settings needed for various pages when the weather software plugin is not installed.
// do not change these
$SITE['WXsoftwareURL'] = '#';
$SITE['WXsoftwareLongName'] = '(unspecified)';
$SITE['WXtags'] = 'testtags.php';
... and it works.

Not sure if this is the correct way of fixing the problem, or if it affects anything else, but it's looking good.

HAPPY.
