   Hi All,

   Not a techie here, but think I did myself in. Was trying to shorten the page permalinks. Went into settings and deleted my http://urls and just left the ending. Guess this was a link to the server as can no longer login. (Supposed to be http://macsmilitary.com/sgtmacsblog, but took out the macsmilitary.com bit.

   IRC said to edit .htaccess. Got the file open on my host, but can't figure out how and what to do...any help appreciated.

   Blog is http://macsmilitary.com/sgtmacsblog

   Thanks for any help ;)

   You will need to change the urls back by using one of the methods described in this article. Changing The Site URL

   I recommend the phpMyAdmin method if that tool is available to you.

   Thanks...I just found it before you posted back...the first section didn't work, but the Relocate Method Worked Perfect...Here is the link for anyone else with the same problems.

   Hey...I just went back to the blog and see that I can't get to the home page, and the posts are messed up...I guess I need to do the phpMyAdmin to finish the process, is that correct?

   Thanks. ;)

   I can't see any problems on your site now. Remember to press CTRL and F5 simultaneously when viewing the updated site. Or try emptying your browser cache. This should ensure that your web browser fetches a fresh copy of the page rather than serving up an out-dated copy from your own cache.

   Found another fix and another problem...I went back into settings and see that I didn't have the url set up right. I fixed that and now able to get to the home page...Everything looks good, except when I go to look at previous posts...The text is all messed up?

   Any clues?

   It all looks good from here. Previous and next links both work, cats and posts work, pages and single posts all seem to be okay. Looks pretty good for me. I can't seem to duplicate the issue.
