• I’ve got WordPress up and running on a server on my LAN. It works fine and dandy as long as I try to access it in a browser on the server itself: http://localhost/wordpress/
    If I try to access it from another machine on my LAN (which is what I really want to do) it doesn’t work so hot, because all links point to “localhost” instead of the static IP (169.254.1.1, for example) for the server.
    I can see the blog entries, but it’s not formatted right since the CSS stylesheet can’t load, and links that point to the admin function, etc. don’t work either.
    Where do I go to change the “localhost” setting to the static IP? Thanks in advance for any help. 🙂

  • First, change the URI in general options. If it dosen’t work, you may try to revise all the “localhost” to “169.254.1.1” by accessing the database directly (phpAdmin). Actually, when I changed the host, I did it in the second way.
