Got a Gmail account, will probably use that as point of contact for my open source development work.

    (got an error saying that my last email did not get through. sending again. sorry if you get this twice)

    i’ve written to you earlier this evening
    thanking you for neuron. its a great wp
    style and is the basis for the new web
    site for my company (see
    http://ttoy.net)

    anyway, got a problem and i’m wondering
    if you have a fix. i’m going a static
    page kludge:

    % cat .htaccess
    DirectoryIndex index.php?cat=10

    FYI: ?cat=10 is my “splash page” stuff.
    if you look at the web site, it works
    quite well (IMHO) BUT, all the
    auto-generated links in the current
    system use (e.g.) http://ttoy.net/?p=27
    which .htaccess catches and throws to
    ?cat=10.

    now i’ve done some tests and if the
    auto-generated links generated (e.g.)
    http://ttoy.net/index.php?p=27 then
    .htaccess does not ignore them and take
    you to ?cat=10

    hence, “all” i need to do is find were
    auto-generated links are generated and
    add the string “index.php” and all will
    be well. problem is, there EVERYWHERE in
    the code and my php ain’t good enough to
    find the MASTER location where that
    string is initialized.

    since you know this stuff MUCH better
    than me, i write to ask: is there such a
    master location? or do i need to
    (horror) multiple patches all over the
    place?

    t

    p.s. i’m going to change the “blue”
    look so it does not clone your site
    (i.e. change top graphic, make the tabs
    and sidebar headers some color OTHER
    than blue). after all, don’t want to
    detract from your great site!
