If I have to make changes to the permalink from phpadmin what should the new settings read like?
This is what my .htaccess reads like:
RewriteEngine off
<IfModule mod_suphp.c>
suPHP_ConfigPath /home/bisonsri/public_html/home/php.ini
<Files php.ini>
order allow,deny
deny from all
</Files>
</IfModule>
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /home/
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /home/index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
Which I changed to:
RewriteEngine off
<IfModule mod_suphp.c>
suPHP_ConfigPath /home/bisonsri/public_html/php.ini
<Files php.ini>
order allow,deny
deny from all
</Files>
</IfModule>
# 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
Hi Esmi
I did the steps mentioned in the link you provided. But after doing that I am unable to open the site, and getting a Error 500 message. I am not able to login to the dashboard as well to update the permalinks too
Have you reversed all of the changes you made when trying to move to root?
Yes I did. All that’s mentioned in the link you gave. After which i started getting a Error 500 and not able to login to the dashboard since. I am now going back to the previous state and starting over.
So what’s the problem with http://bisonsridehard.com/ ?
Have you tried using ftp to rename the .htaccess file and then try and see if your site opens if it does you can reset your permalinks so that a new .htaccess file is created.
Esmi,
What you see now is the site rolled back to its original state. All the content is back in its original folder.
Govpatel,
I tried to rename .htaccess to htaccess.txt but that was of no avail.
But what is the problem with that site? It seems to be functioning just fine.
What you see now is the site rolled back to its original state. All the content is back in its original folder.
When I click on menu I do not see any folder so you must have your wordpress in root.
When the blog was in a directory, I was unable to preview posts and used to open the homepage instead. That is where is entire story started. I guess I better search for a easier solution to the problem!
GovPatel,
The reason you see it like that is because the Site URL and WordPress URL have been changed in the settings>General
And can you preview posts now?
The reason you see it like that is because the Site URL and WordPress URL have been changed in the settings>General
and that is how they should be if you have wordpress in root
and all your permalinks are working fine as well.
If you had wordpress in folder home then you would get error
esmi
No its not. Its showing a error 404 now! :-/
