   Hello everyone,

   After moving a wordpress installation from a sub folder to the root all the posts have an extra long address redundancy:

   http://shenandoahweddings.org/http:/shenandoahweddings.org/category/brides

   How to fix?

   THanks a bunch!

   Could you be a little more specific? Do I have the symlink problem or do I need to modify the login.php?

   Thanks a million,
   Andrew

   No - it's not a symlink problem nor do you need to modify the login.php.

   Does it have to do with my .htaccess file from:

   10. If you are using Permalinks, go to the Administration > Settings > Permalinks panel and update your Permalink structure to your .htaccess file, which should be in the same directory as the main index.php file.

   My .htaccess file:
   # BEGIN WordPress
   <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
   RewriteEngine On
   RewriteBase /
   RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
   RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
   RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
   </IfModule>

   # END WordPress

   No. what urls are entered in Settings -> General? Have you tried resetting your custom permalinks back to the default setting. If this works, then review Using_Permalinks before setting a custom permalink structure back up again.

   Under settings general I have:
   Wordpress Address: http://shenandoahweddings.org
   Site Address: http://shenandoahweddings.org

   Under Permalinks I have the custom structure:
   /http:/shenandoahweddings.org/%postname%

   I saw there that I have /http:/ instead of /http://shenandoa... But when I try to change it it says the permalink is updated but removes the / leaving only /http:/shend...

   Now go and read Using_Permalinks again...

   I changed the custom permalink to just /%postname% and that fixed it.

   Thank you for your help!!!
