Thanks for this. The override is working, but I can’t get the pages to load with display=yes. It’s still just the echo.

I used to be much more than pleased to seek out this internet-site.. some times its a pain in the ass to read what blog owners wrote but this website is really user friendly ! . A lot much more A lot much more.

Yes, so if you wanted to see your page you would do this:

http://www.website.com/?page_id=8&display=yes

Adding that extra variable in the url will tell you code to show the site instead of the message

Great idea, but now none of the pages work eg http://www.website.com/?page_id=8 now brings up the echo’ed string.

do you need to append the ?display=yes string into the page urls???

@dillinger you’ll want to rename index.html to something else.

If though, you have an index.html and index.php (in other words keeping the old site going pre launch) would Google pick up index.php at all? Or would this need a rewrite?

Anyway I will try it and see. Thanks a lot for sharing this.

I find your website very amusing. I love coming back to it each day to read additional content. Your site has been one of my favorite ones for the last few weeks and I would love to become a full time subscriber. I hope your content keeps going the way it is, and I will participate in many discussions if given the opportunity.
