You implement it once and then it will work forever. Comment policy is a really good think. You implement it once and then it will work forever.

And I help in WP Forums whenever I have time. Unfortunately, I cannot reproduce your error, so I have no idea what the solution would be. If it is about the blog linked to your name here... to be honest, I couldn't wait for it to load: I never look at webpages that are soooo long. Sorry. I just click Stop and Back - it is very, very not userfriendly. I don't think any normal visitor is willing to wait until the km long page is loading. What about making it shorter? Less queries to the database. Plugins deactivated? On this blog my “offer” is basically related to my articles. And I help in WP Forums whenever I have time.

Could you take a look at these questions I left in the WP forums regarding getting redirected to the install.php page 99% of the time after upgrading to WP 2.5? http://wordpress.org/support/topic/164607 http://wordpress.org/support/topic/168505 http://wordpress.org/support/topic/168505 I've already tried a lot of stuff...

It's your site, your blog, and, presumably, your nickel that pays for all this, so why should you have to put up with anyone writing things here that you don't approve? Right, there isn't any reason. Frankly, that's a good policy right there. "I will not put up with any nasty, mean-spirited bullshit from commenters and I get to interpret what that means. If you don't like it, don't comment. Thank you."

It is either turned on or off in your WP (options > Writing): if the rpc.pingomatic.com is the proper field and your blog's privacy settings allow it, WP will do the rest. And thanks for the comment!

I agree with your thinking about comments. People should have an abstract freedom of speech in public forums. When a person is at home and trying to get something done in the privacy of their blog-space it is better to be more selective about who you let in the door. Just a question about Dark Maple (nice theme - thanks!). Does it use the Update Services? In other words, when I create a post is rpc.pingomatic.com fired automatically? If so, where is it (in case I want to turn it off!). I looked around the Technorati tips, WordPress help and the php code for a minute or two but didn't see anything obvious so I thought I would ask you directly. I'm using your theme at http://emsjuwel.com/kitqc2blog (please delete this line if you feel that the link is inappropriate in this comment - just thought that you would like to know) Thank in advance Andrew Hi!
