No, QuickPress is only meant for jotting down ideas or a quick draft that you can return to later with the full write panel.Seems like their is a lot of demand for just having the write panel on the first page you see when you log into the backend of WordPress. Maybe someone should create a plugin for that.

Re: [wp-testers] Change Attached to Gallery?
DD32, That's fantastic news! It's a pity I wasn't here earlier when it was brought up for 2.7. You can use the URL of the file you uploaded on one gallery and use it on the new gallery, but instead of uploading, you put it in the File URL section. Will, Unfortunately, that just embeds the file into the post. I'm also using a jQuery that pops it open and allows browsing back and forth between the images much like an iFrame, therefore those embedded and not in the gallery do not appear. So, if I were merely doing thumbnails and files, it would in theory work (aside from different thumbnail sizes, but that can be adjusted). Here is a link to my demo page: http://www.em2astudios.com/tests/illustration/ doesn't that just create a hyperlink to the external URL? Or does it upload the file again into the database Paul, Yes, it creates an img tag (with or without a hyperlink) and does not upload the file to the db again. Also, if you do make a plugin, I am more than willing to help test it out! Keep me posted on it ;) Thanks everyone! ~Emma ___ wp-testers mailing list wp-testers@lists.automattic.com http://lists.automattic.com/mailman/listinfo/wp-testers
Re: [wp-testers] Adding Add new tag as new tag
Wow, is there really a lot of demand for for having the Admin open up to the editor when a user logs in? Personally I wouldn't want that since TinyMCE is the most resource intensive page in the Admin out of all the them. Still, if it can be done by a plugin, perhaps a fairly simple redirect controlled by putting a check box on the login page that when checked, takes you directly to the editor instead of the Dashboard.

Re: [wp-testers] Adding Add new tag as new tag
I don't think people want the whole TinyMCE editor, Kirk, but I do think the QuickPress widget will be popular - it's more lightweight but allows quick post creation. The plan is, at least I think this is the plan, in 2.8 to allow people to customise the content of that QuickPress widget - with tickboxes for the different elements. You could choose to have a Categories dropdown visible, but no tags textbox, etc etc. A lead developer will have to confirm, but thats the rumors I've read. -- Alex On Tue, Dec 9, 2008 at 6:19 PM, Kirk M [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Wow, is there really a lot of demand for for having the Admin open up to the editor when a user logs in?

Re: [wp-testers] It seems we're outmoded...
Very True. Whenever a new thing comes out on the 'Net. It goes through what I call The Phase. 1. Experimentation 2. Implementation 3. Capitalization At first Blogs were like the new cutting edge thing. Once Wordpress.com and Blogger.com came along, the mass implementation started happening. Then, the Capitalists saw that money could be made, then ads appeared. The downside is this, the noise has gotten louder. Twitter is following suit. Already there are people out there trying to use Twitter to spam people. The challenge for Blog author's is this, to be Unique. Which many Blogs do well, and some, quite frankly, stink at it. There are two types of Blogs, the leaders and the echo chambers; this is true especially in politics. This is why I detest Memeorandum. It encourages Blog snobbery. I won't even get into what I think about Gabe or his politics. One thing I've noticed, is, many Blogs copy others, like Style, and because of this, and because of the PreFab themes, the Blogsophere is very, shall we say, Un-Unique. Of course, if you've priced Blog Design Services, you will see *why* many blogs go with a Prefab look. I personally think that the Blogsophere is here to stay.

You might be disconnecting from the internet or your wireless signal could be getting disrupted stalling, I doubt it though. You could however try hooking up and cable to your router instead of using wireless try that, if it's at all possible.

It only tends to be visible when connecting through SFTP on my server though.

I have upgraded these sites automatically in the past few days and as far as I know and control none of the settings on the server side have changed. I'm rebooting my computer now, just to see if that has any effect.

You could however try hooking up and cable to your router instead of using wireless try that, if it's at all possible. Also if a update fails you can remove the maintainence page by looking for a file called .maintainence in the root of your WP installation deleting it, that's just in case you didn't know. It only tends to be visible when connecting through SFTP on my server though. As for your update failing, if it's not the shaky connection it might be that WP needs to use FTP access you have entered the information incorrectly... I dunnot I'm just a tester not really great at the back end stuff. Hopefully a dev will beable to extend on what I've said, and probably correct a few mistakes I've made along the way. :) Paul. 2008/12/9 Jim Lynch [EMAIL PROTECTED] How involved is my connection in the upgrade process? Here's what's happening - I am attempting to upgrade several sites, but I am doing it over a rather shaky wireless connection. The process goes through part way - I see: Downloading update from http://wordpress.org/nightly-builds/wordpress-latest.zip Unpacking the core update Verifying the unpacked files Installing the latest version , but it never completes. At first, after waiting for the maintenance screen to clear, it would still show 10119 as the version, and the An automated WordPress update has failed to complete nag. Now it showing 10151 as the version but still shows the nag. Could it be a problem with my internet connection, or is it likely to be something else? -- Jim bRight Early -- http://brightandearlyblog.com Reclaim Conservatism -- http://reclaimconservatism.com/blog/ FloridImagine -- http://floridimagine.com/blog/ 4bauer.com http://floridimagine.com/blog/4bauer.com (Blogs.4Bauer.com Forums.4Bauer.com Wiki.4Bauer.com) Need a gmail invite?

[wp-testers] 10151 can't minimize modules in dashboard...
After upgrading to 10151 I can't minimize anything in the dashboard. I like two columns and keeping only the Right Now module open with the rest closed. I do see the down pointing arrow at the left of each module's header and there is a mouse-over tool tip that says click to toggle but nothing happens when it is pressed. I have done a hard refresh and cleared WP-Super cache... kimsch Musing Minds http://musing-minds.com [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ wp-testers mailing list wp-testers@lists.automattic.com http://lists.automattic.com/mailman/listinfo/wp-testers
