I can't speak for anyone else who has run into this problem, but I know I have run into it on more than one occasion. Having just figured out my particular issue this time, I'm making a note for myself (and anyone else who may have the same problem).
You may run into this problem if [...]
When using WordPress as a CMS, I often repurpose the "posts" as other types of content a site may need. For example, news or press releases, or any information that might need the ability to be catgorized and/or tagged (like testimonials). However, this may mean that you need a completely different template for your news [...]
On a site I was working on recently, the client was using the Featured Content Galleries plugin for their homepage (you can download it from here) – but they wanted to add a gallery like this to other pages on their website and have other featured content on those pages. This is not a feature [...]
Background: For a site I was working on, I was pulling in content from another page onto the homepage. However I wanted to just bring in an excerpt not the whole page. (And actually, a customized excerpt at that – not a default set character or word limit). I also didn't want any images brought [...]
I just saw this plugin show up on the WordPress Plugins list. WOW! I haven't had a chance to use it yet, but can think of a dozen places where I can use this feature!!! Very excited to see it!

One of my clients had set it up so that one particular page in their WordPress install would load as https:// and even though they changed all links they could find in their template to use root-relative links, they were still getting complaints from IE about the page loading some secure and non-secure items. A [...]
One problem with the WYSIWYG editor in WordPress is that if you are trying to manually add in a block of HTML, the editor may try to translate that block into paragraph format, inserting <p> tags where you didn't intend, possibly (and most likely) ruining what you were intending to do with your HTML code [...]
This is possibly the most bizarre thing I've ever seen. (This is relevant to version 2.8.4). If you have your WordPress install set up to be http://www.yourdomain.com but your blog install set up to be http://yourdomain.com (note the missing "www") and you try to search for posts from with the WordPress admin, you get redirected [...]
I was recently asked by a client how they could easily add anchor links within a particularly long post they had made in WordPress. (Ie. a list of links at the top of the page that would jump the user down to the appropriate section where they needed to be.) I thought about maybe explaining [...]
