How do I unblock a domain? (5 posts)

    I have a network of sites, two of which run on WordPress.

    On my main blog (not done with WordPress, sorry) my sidebar features the RSS feeds from my two WP blogs. Today I noticed that the links don't work -- I get 404 errors.

    I thought I might have done something wrong with htaccess, so I deleted my htaccess files from the two WP blogs entirely. The links still don't work.

    Any ideas?

    My blog is here: http://mikeboas.com

    Try clicking the links under "Subterranea Entertainment" and "The Mad Dog Movies Podcast."

    To clarify, I'm wondering if my domain has been accidentally blacklisted by my WordPress blogs.

    Is there an area in the WordPress dashboard where I can control blocked sites?

    It's worse than I thought. I can get the main page of each of my WP blogs to show up, but each of the individual post links is broken. Also, pages such as "About" are broken. All I get are 404 errors.

    so, all this really boils down to: My Permalinks aren't working on my blogs?

    Check out the Permalinks page in the docs and look through the trouble-shooting tips.

    If you have your blogs set to non-default permalinks and then deleted their .htaccess files, things will certainly not work as desired!

    I bit the bullet and upgraded one of my blogs from 2.1.2 to 2.6. I'm always afraid that I'll screw up my template changes this way, but today it seems okay. I lost all my post and link categories, but I'm slowly going through and re-inserting them.

    At least my 404 error problem has been fixed! I'll do the other blog next and see if there's problems there.
