Anyone handy with Wordpress?

I cant for the life of me work out why my install thinks that some pages are in categories and some are not!

Piddly annoyance

Alas, I am only handy with the old version, not the new.
There's a setting somewhere where you can tell it what to call uncategorised posts, instead of "uncategorised"

I'm quite nifty with wordpress. What version are you using and, perchance, could you post an example, or a link so I can have a look.

Cheers.

oo cheers for the offer, and sorry for the late reply - ive been off sunning myself a bit.

one page is here:
http://www.sackthemanager.co.uk/about/
it has no related articles etc

here is another page
http://www.sackthemanager.co.uk/test-2/
which, (as all new created pages are) has "more articles" on the side, as though it is in a category of some sort.

if you need more info or want to peek at the admin section let me know.

No worries, good trip?

As for your problem. Sense, it makes none. You shouldn't be able to assign a page a category unless you're using a custom page template or have fiddled with the inner workings of wordpress. But then you know this.

Obviously you're using a custom style for the site, have you checked that the about page is using the same template as the other two?
I use a couple of custom templates on one of my sites and it only takes a bit of if else and the

Code: Select all

wp_list_categories('title_li=&show_count=1&hierarchical=0');

gubbins to have the categories show up one one page and not on another.
