    <p>Thank you very much for this nice addition to your great theme!
    But I have some problems with authordata and category data :)
    I am using WP 2.02 and K2 SVN r343. It doesnt show authordata nor categorydata images in my posts.
    Could you help me with that?
    Thanks,
    Mark</p>

    <p>Thanks a lot or this fine add on!
    I found a problem in the code fields: There is a space between the braket and the next html tag, like you can see here: \&lt; \s\p\a\n\
    It is only in the code field, not in the downloadable txt.
    Code with this spaces in it will not work.</p>

    <p>Thanks again for this nice sniplet.</p>

    <p>Thank you very much for this addition to your theme.
    But I want to modify this theme(http://www.4null4.de/wordpress-binary-blue-theme/), Can you tell me what can i do? Thanks.</p>

  7. 7 Brian

    <p>Steve there is an error on the svn instructions.</p>

  8. 8 steveo

    <p>Thanks. Fixed it.</p>

  9. 9 Phil

    <p>Thanks, I have the package now</p>

  10. 10 Brian

    <p>Does this hack support UTW?</p>

  11. 11 steveo

    <p>Yup. I haven’t modified the UTW code.</p>

  12. 12 Brian

    <p>I guess UTW must be the problem then…Thanks Steveo.</p>

  13. 13 Brian

    <p>Okay UTW tags show up on the post itself, but not on the homepage, why?</p>

  14. 14 steveo

    That’s how k2 handles it :) Look for the following:

    <code>< ?php if (is_single() && function_exists(UTW_ShowTagsForCurrentPost)) { ?></code>

    and change it to:

    <code>< ?php if (function_exists(UTW_ShowTagsForCurrentPost)) { ?></code>

  15. 15 Brian

    <p>Okay that’s giving me an error I’m going to try again.</p>

  16. 16 Brian

    <p>It’s still not working maybe you could try editing it It’s the svn.</p>

  17. 17 Brian

    <p>Nevermind I got it working.</p>

  18. 18 Brian

    <p>Sorry, me again can I get the tags to show up on the same line as categories?</p>

    Heya,

    Just applied the DateStamp “hack” but only the second page works (got only ~20 posts so it’s spanning on two pages) but when i click of specific post it’s also working..

    Any ideas?

  20. 20 Brian

    Nice site redesign.

  21. 21 steveo

    Thanks. It’s a work-in-progress.

  22. 22 Brian

    Well I’m liking all the rounded corners, and comment bubbles.I hope it isn’t too big though.

  23. 23 Brian

    Hey steveo I’m redesigning my redisign is it possible to have the post title underlined, like in datestamp1.0 Thanks.

  24. 24 steveo

    Brian: add a bottom border to .itemhead:

    <pre>
    .itemhead {
    border-bottom: 1px solid #999;
    }
    </pre>

  25. 25 Brian

    Sorry Steveo I figured that out right before your comment and I decided to use border-bottom instead.

  26. 26 Brian

    But how do I center the title of the post.

  27. 27 Brian

    I don’t think it’s possible.

  28. 28 Brian

    I fixed my problems sorry to bother you.

    I am working on a blog with K2 Beta 2 and cant get it to seem to work, I am running the K2 beta 167 right out of the “box” but I cant get it to appear is it possibly due to a wordpress cache since I got it to work once while refreshing but then never again.

    Is there a popular trick to get it working other then the edits you have under the advanced section I have them match what I am using.

    Any help would be great I am at the end of my knowledge rope.

    This mod does not work with r403 of k2 SVN.

  31. 31 steveo

    Manas: Yup. it’s a few months old. I Need to update it.

  32. 32 steveo

    Bad at Sports: You need to style it. Just copy and paste the contents of either: datestamp-imageless.css or datestamp.css into BAS.css.

  33. 33 Alok

    hey I’m using the 3k2 by Bharat .. available at http://www.obharath.net . Can I apply the mod without any modifications ? As in are the instructions applicable to 3k2 as they are applicable to k2?

  34. 34 Manas

    So,when are you updating this mod to work with the latest version?

  35. 35 Bad at Sports

    Thank you for the advice I will do that right away. I love the plugin very much you did a really nice bit of code.

  36. 36 bluesaze

    Nice Plugin … I am tryin to get it to work for comments i.e make a comment stamp :)

  37. 37 Brennan

    I’ve gotten the date stamp image to work but I can’t figure out how to get the post title and categories, # comments/user/edit, to show.

    http://www.bcollectin.com

    Any thoughts? :(

  38. 38 Brennan

    I’ll accept help from ANYONE

  39. 39 Jason

    What if the post title was longer than one line? How would this alter the look?

  40. 40 Paul Reid

    How can I make the text body of the post to be inline left below the date stamp?

    My installation here http://ausmaced.org/ means I have an indent with too much white space to the left below the date stamp.

    Like this plug-in very much Steve.
