The funny thing about your recommendation is that I copied it straight into my functions.php file and it didn't work. It wasn't until I fixed the single quotes that wordpress dorked up that it worked properly. Thanks.

I noticed that you provide a lot of PHP code in some of these posts... and silly WordPress tries to add "smart quotes" to them. If someone tries to copy and paste them verbatim into a PHP script, it won't work. To fix this, go into your WordPress "themes" folder, and the subfolder of the theme you have activated, open the functions.php file and add these lines: remove_filter('the_content', 'wptexturize'); remove_filter('bloginfo', 'wptexturize'); remove_filter('comment_text', 'wptexturize'); That will remove the smart quotes from the blog entry, title tag, and comments areas. Hope that helps. Hey Dave, nice start to the blog. I noticed that you provide a lot of PHP code in some of these posts... and silly WordPress tries to add "smart quotes" to them.
