Hello, does XPressMe work with the latest version of Wordpress?

Okay, I downloaded XPressME_Integration_Kit_Ver2.4.1
(had to go to the authors site... in Japanese (: )

And then I downloaded the latest version of Wordpress-3.2.1

I then made a new folder called BLOG (how original)

I then put all of the files from the xpressme_integration_kit folder into this folder.

I then put all of the files from the wordpress folder into this folder.

When it complained about duplicates, I allowed it use the wordpress file.

I then modified the wp-config.php file to switch it to default to English

from
define ('WPLANG', 'ja'); // language support to Japanese
to
define ('WPLANG', ''); // language support to English

(okay, okay, so I did this later after it all came up in Japanese... ;) )

I then put the BLOG folder into the modules folder and uploaded it to the site.
and installed the module.

I then changed the XpressME integration settings to allow privileges for certain uses. I guess I need to make a group for BLOGGERS, and then use that to allow those who I want to blog in the location. I made the WEBMASTER2 group an administrator and as soon as I did, that person got privileges to post in the Wordpress blog... COOL !

Um, I had to change the display settings. I used translate.google.com with a cut and paste to translate the japanese words over to english.

I think that was it.

Before we go live with it, is there anything we have to watch out for?

I installed the Askimet and Jetpack pluggins.

So far, it looks fully functional (at least after I finished uploading the group of files that did not transfer up.)

Any issues?

www.ladads.info/modules/blog should bring it up.

Oh, and I love the switch to go back and forth between the XOOPS view and the WORDPRESS view.

Any suggestions on how to set the themes so I don't give viewers themelash?

Resizing a graphic.

We put in a test graphic - a chicken - and it will not resize. In the basic word press blog setup, we can grab the graphic and resize it to any size.

In the XPressME XOOPS installation of the same software, the chicken will not resize.

Any idea as to what code controls the resizing of the chicken?

Well
