Plugin Conflicts

October 23rd, 2007

I have been having a few problems with plugin conflicts.
I just wanted to take a moment to remind myself what I have done for sake of reference.

The problem occurs between a pagination plugin, and a category exclusion plugin.

What I am trying to achieve is to exclude photo posts from main page. Done, But with this working my pagination gets screwed up.

I found this little hint on the wordpress codex forum. Here, bottom of page
and is a nice solution, because it does away with the need for the plugin that causes my pagination to go squiffy.

So I have turned off advanced category excluder in favor of the in code solution, and it seems to be working well. My only concern is, and I havn’t checked to be sure…

My page is now set to display max 5 posts, and on a number of pages I get only two. I think these are the pages where the photo posts would have appeared had they not been excluded. This will have to do for now.

I am currently beginning a clean re-code of blog, because with gained experience I know things can work in a more harmonious manner.

I have just finished a site for a client Lynsey Birchall, Photography, and as a addition have added a blog for photographic retouching, using the same base as with this blog, that being blix
It being an example of how a site should be coded.
