I created a ‘contact’ subsite on the subdomain ‘http://contact.example.com’ I moved the contact ‘page’ from the main site to the sub site. I enabled comments on this new … Read more

Let me try to summarize what you want and answer: I want on main page (index.php) retrieve page(News) url and title.

It adds a “hide/show on….” checklist to each widget where you can select where the widget will display. Works great, but if … Read more
More information about your specific plans might help improve answers you’ll get on this thread. But in general RE: conflicting file names: if you install WordPress in a subdirectory (for example, “/blog/”), it doesn’t matter what you name the rest of your files so long as they’re not in the WP dir. This is what … Read more
You can use wp_query with different arguments to list the posts that you want to appear on that specific page (i.e. all the post that are assigned to the X category or all the post that belong to Y author a.s.o). You can find on the WordPress Codex a detailed presentation and examples on how … Read more
yes i tried both. it was still hapenning. at the end i discovered it was an error coming from the index.php – one line of code i had added following a tutorial which i forgot to remove after. removing it brought everything back to normal. sorry to bother, but it might help someone else.
