Re: WhoAmI in PHP and getting Wordpress plugins to work witout PHP

[Aaron Bartell <aaronbartell@xxxxxxxxx>]

I actually have WordPress on Windows also - that's what the
www.mowyourlawn.com/blog runs on (unfortunately :-)

I am not sure I follow you with how I would test it with an *ALLOBJ user?
 Are you saying make QTMHHTTP and QTMHHTP1 *ALLOBJ?

Note this is happening while I am in WordPress and trying to add additional
plugins.
