So, in continuing to stamp on occasional fires in my blogs, Dave N. noticed that one of the WIST quotes<\/a> we were discussing yesterday was missing.<\/p>\n

Odd.<\/p>\n

Poked around a bit more.  One that I’d entered in on the same page yesterday was missing from the author (category) archive, too.<\/p>\n

After much poking<\/a> and prodding<\/a>, I discovered that:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Any quote (entry) with a citation (title) that started with a quotation mark was vanishing.<\/li>\n
  2. I was only seeing ten entries the page, regardless.<\/li>\n
  3. If I took out the sort-by-title parameter, I still got only ten, but a different ten.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Aha.<\/p>\n

    Turns out that one of the few significant changes in MT4 was the whole archiving stuff.  Some of the results:<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. If you don’t specify otherwise, an archive (e.g., a category archive) will only show the default “show N entries” value for the blog.  Which, in my case, was 10.  When I changed it to 1000, all the quotes showed up, huzzah.<\/li>\n
    2. The old pagination stuff I had previously didn’t get brought over — so my loooooong archives in my regular blog are not paginated.  That’s something I need to fix in the future by using MT’s new built-in pagination power.  (See: swapping out for all new templates again.)<\/li>\n
    3. But the problems I was having with my date (monthly) archives not working has magically been fixed, as has the problem that was in there with the Previous\/Next entries at the top.  So that’s a win.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      And so it goes.<\/p>\n

      Now, all I need is like two unoccupied days when I can replace the templates and get them cleaned up and looking the way I want, and I’ll be in great shape.  I just don’t think that’s going to happen this month. \ud83d\ude1b<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
