    Let me just begin by reitterating that I am a complete newbie to programming.
    I don't have a clue.
    If this is a really simple to anwser question, I apologise for wasting your time...

    Anyway...
    There is a hack available for WordPress that basically allows you to scrap the traditional achiving available with most blogs (By month)...

    It is called NicerArchives.
    here is the code for the <head>
    <?php require('wp-config.php'); $single = 1; $siteurl = get_settings('siteurl'); ?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">

<head profile="http://gmpg.org/xfn/1">
	<title><?php bloginfo('name'); ?><?php wp_title(); ?></title>

	<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=<?php bloginfo('charset'); ?>" />
	<meta name="generator" content="WordPress <?php bloginfo('version'); ?>" /> <!-- leave this for stats -->

	<style type="text/css" media="screen">
		@import url( <?php echo get_settings('siteurl'); ?>/wp-layout.css );
	</style>

	<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="print" href="<?php echo get_settings('siteurl'); ?>/print.css" />
	<link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="RSS 2.0" href="<?php bloginfo('rss2_url'); ?>" />
	<link rel="alternate" type="text/xml" title="RSS .92" href="<?php bloginfo('rss_url'); ?>" />
	<link rel="alternate" type="application/atom+xml" title="Atom 0.3" href="<?php bloginfo('atom_url'); ?>" />

	<link rel="pingback" href="<?php bloginfo('pingback_url'); ?>" />
    <?php wp_get_archives('type=monthly&format=link'); ?>
	<?php //comments_popup_script(); // off by default ?>
	<?php wp_head(); ?>
    Code (markup):

    So that is the original php file named narchives.php

    Where my problem start to arise is when I try to take what I perceved as being the actual PHP working code and paste it into my own skinned template that fits with the rest of the site.

    Here is what I have for that (Just the <head> again): 
    <?php require('wp-config.php'); $single = 1; $siteurl = get_settings('siteurl'); ?>
<?php
/* Don't remove this line. */
require('./wp-blog-header.php');
?>

<head profile="http://gmpg.org/xfn/1">
	<title><?php bloginfo('name'); ?><?php wp_title(); ?></title>

	<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=<?php bloginfo('charset'); ?>" />
	<meta name="generator" content="WordPress <?php bloginfo('version'); ?>" /> <!-- leave this for stats -->

	<style type="text/css" media="screen">
		@import url( <?php echo get_settings('siteurl'); ?>/wp-layout.css );
	</style>

	<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="print" href="<?php echo get_settings('siteurl'); ?>/print.css" />
	<link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="RSS 2.0" href="<?php bloginfo('rss2_url'); ?>" />
	<link rel="alternate" type="text/xml" title="RSS .92" href="<?php bloginfo('rss_url'); ?>" />
	<link rel="alternate" type="application/atom+xml" title="Atom 0.3" href="<?php bloginfo('atom_url'); ?>" />

	<link rel="pingback" href="<?php bloginfo('pingback_url'); ?>" />
    <?php wp_get_archives('type=monthly&format=link'); ?>
	<?php //comments_popup_script(); // off by default ?>
	<?php wp_head(); ?>

	<!--[if gte IE 4]>
	<link rel="stylesheet" href="http://www.softalien.com/ie.css" type="text/css" />

    This doesn't work...

    The actual message I get is this:
    I have been working on this for ages now and just can't seem to get anywhere...

    you can see the actual (non-working) file here... http://www.softalien.com/narchives.php

    Are there any PHP users out there who know what that error message means and what I have to do to get rid of it?

    Cheers

    Oliver

    Apologies for all the elongated posts...

    Too much code there...

    I think you need to use the my-hacks file. Have you done that?
    http://wordpress.org/support/10/5963

    May as well scratch that comment. I just uploaded the file; works great.
    Big help; aren't I?

    Your error message:

    Quote:
    Fatal error: Cannot redeclare show_year_select() (previously declared in /home/softalie/public_html/narchives.php:59) in /home/softalie/public_html/narchives.php on line 58

    leads me to believe that you are trying to show the year twice; something along that line. Look at the code in a text editor; specifically the code on line 58 and 59. What's it say?

    Here is the code from the original 
    
function show_author_select() {
58>>>>>>>    global $wpdb, $tableusers, $author;
59>>>>>>>    $users = $wpdb->get_results("SELECT * FROM $tableusers WHERE user_level > 0", ARRAY_A);
    $output .= '<option value="">All Authors</option>'.NL;
    foreach ($users as $user) {
        $output .= '<option value="'.$user['ID'].'"';
        if ($user['ID'] == $author) {
            $output .= 'selected="selected"';
        }
        $output .= '>'.$user['user_nickname'].'</option>'.NL;
    }
    $output = '<select name="author">'.NL.$output.'</select>'.NL;
    echo $output;
}
    Code (markup):
    The code on mine (What's there now)...

    
<?php
$posts_per_page = '-1';

$defaultorderby = 'post_date';
$defaultorder = 'DESC';

define('NL', "\n");

function show_year_select() {
58>>>>>>    global $wpdb, $tableposts, $m;
59>>>>>>    $m = substr($m,0,4);
    $years = $wpdb->get_col("SELECT DISTINCT YEAR(post_date) as year FROM $tableposts ORDER BY year ASC");
    $output .= '<option value="">All Years</option>'.NL;
    foreach ($years as $year) {
        $output .= '<option value="'.$year.'"';
        if ($year == $m) {
            $output .= ' selected="selected"';
        }
        $output .= '>'.$year.'</option>';
    }
    $output  = '<select name="m">'.NL.$output.'</select>'.NL;
    echo $output;
}
    Code (markup):
    Thanks for having a look...

    This has been driving me nuts.

    I'm not sure exactly what you're trying to accomplish ( I know what the file is for) but your code:

    function show_year_select() {
    58>>>>>> global $wpdb, $tableposts, $m;
    59>>>>>> $m = substr($m,0,4);

    Is what's flubbing the works. What are you trying to make it do, specifically?

    If you use the code in the original file; it should work. I did no tweaking whatsever; uploaded the original narchives.php to all of my blog sites and it works great; but I'm not doing anything special to it Looks good the way it is, more or less: http://jramer.com/narchives.php

    function show_author_select() {
    global $wpdb, $tableusers, $author;
    $users = $wpdb->get_results("SELECT * FROM $tableusers WHERE user_level > 0", ARRAY_A);

    The actual template that the hack has been built on, is the default wordpress template.

    I had to end up drastically changing the HTML provided in that template in order to make the site look the way I wanted.

    It's a pain in the arse, because I know all of this is my fault, but to have things work the way I want I have to get this to work...

    I've been trying everything and I just can't think of a way to get it to work...

    I don't even understand it :rolleyes:

    I'll keep trying and see if something works...

    No biggie. :)

    Cheers... :)
