I don’t think this is exactly what you meant. I guess how can I tell the REST API calls apart from all of the other ones and also I’m assuming you are looking for what is in the Response tab correct?

Downloading tar.gz file and manually installing it. I’ve done it a bunch with older versions of WordPress and haven’t had anything weird with those but maybe something is different with this one as far as permissions or something.

.htaccess looks like:

# 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

also as far as .htaccess files go, I’m a big noob. I didn’t create any of these rules or anything so no idea what they do or why they are there.

So I totally clicked on the wrong site files and gave you a .htaccess for a completely different website.

Here is the correct .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

also for the permalinks we are using “Post name”

When clicking update it gives the updating error still but if I leave the page and go back to the same post it tells me there is a more recent version of the post in an autosave.

I can publish pages/posts even though I get an error “publishing failed”. I leave the page and look at the posts/pages and its there. The preview feature still doesn’t work though.

Yes, WordPress is installed in a subdirectory right below the root directory. The main website is in a different CMS and WordPress is installed in a directory “blog”.

@otto42

They both have /blog at the end.
