Non-comic blog showing in reverse order

Hi,

Love the work that you've done with stripShow, makes it really easy to get a comic site up and running!

Anyway, on my – presently unfinished – comic/blog: http://www.phasetoground.com the comics show up in the correct order but the non-comic posts show up in reverse order. I'm using stripShow 1.6.1 with WordPress 2.6.1 and PHP 5.1.4 (I think) on a Windows Server.  Also, I'm using the default stripShow single category for comics.

I've checked the sql statements in the template and in stripshow.php, and they all seem to be in proper order (ordered by date, Descending).  Is there another place to look, or is this an issue with WordPress 2.6.1 and/or the Windows setup?

Thanks In advance.

Do you happen to know what version of MySQL your server uses? This sounds like the same problem from this thread… I think we resolved that issue by upgrading MySQL.

It looks like the server is running 5.0.51, would there be that much of a difference between that and 5.0.67?  The only difference between mine and the post you linked was that my comics are all showing up properly, it's just the non-comic categories that aren't working. I have 2 other categories (random, tech) with 1 post each in them, and i've tried putting them in the same category and also re-entering the dates to make sure that there wasn't anything wonky with them, but still the same results.

Thanks for your patience!

OK, so here's what we found out: This appears to be a bug in MySQL 5.0.51, which affects the results from the query_posts function — it happens in WordPress in general, not just stripShow.

A discussion of this issue can be found here, along with a plugin you can add to work around the issue.

Awesome, that fixed the problem right up! I just copied the text from that post into a new php file and uploaded and activated it in wordpress, and now the blog posts work fine.

Thanks again, you're the best!

Dunno if this helps anybody, but I installed Ubuntu server just yesterday (v 8.04.i386) and it came with MySQL v5.0.51a-3ubuntu5.1

Go figure.

    While I don't maintain stripShow for a living, I wouldn't say no to a little donation, if you think the plugin is worth it...
