Renamed WordPress Folder – Can’t access, archives, comments or about page
-
I tried to fix something that wasn’t broke and broke it!
I wanted to change the web address of my blog so changed the name of the folder in dreamweaver, updated all links and uploaded.
Didn’t save the folder first…
I know, I know Bad move!
Was getting fatal error messages etc but have managed to get back to the point of having the main page up.
Here are my continuing problems…
Can’t access archives when I use my custom option in permalinks. I have cleaned out the htaccess file. I chmod it to 666 and 777 but in admin continues to say it’s not writable. So have done it manually but still no go.
It works in default mode and before people suggest mod_rewrite and allow override. Everything worked perfectly before I changed the folder containing all my wordpress files.When I change permalinks to default I can access post archives but still can’t access comments pages or my about page.
Also when in admin under manage files when I click edit post or edit page all the information exists but it won’t allow me to view the file from there. I get webpage not found.
I’m thinking this has to be something pretty simple since all I did was change the file name but I’ve been at it for a day now and fear my tiredness has me unable to see the elephant in the room.
