Images and registration not correct

    I have been searching for hours on these forums and on Google. I have a site: http:derbycitynews.com/blogs and I have two major issues.

    1. Everytime I try and upload a pic it will not show up. I keep getting a box with a broken image.

    2. Others cannot register for the site. Whenever someone clicks register and fills out their info, they never receive an email. They can’t retrieve a lost password either.

    Did I install WP wrong? I have a cloud computer I use and my host set up an IP address for WP specifically. However I already a site: derbycitynews.com so I copied all the files from that one IP and placed them in my existing IP under the folder blogs.

    I’m lost.

    You mention moving the files but what about the database? And also the directory changed from / to /blogs so did you correct that aftethe move?

    Well I thought I did everything right because the site itself works. It wasn’t until I tried to do those two things that it didn’t work. Where do I change those things?

    1. Check your uploads path in settings/Media.

    2. Review this Codex page

    Did you check Settings/General???
    Also make sure everything is correct in wp-config.php
    Lastly you might want to look at your database in PhpMyadmin and make sure where anyh paths or URL’s are listed they are correct.

    I checked settings/general and I had already changed it to http://derbycitynews.com/blogs

    I don’t know what phpmyadmin is.

    I looked at the codex page. Still reading the posts. Will update soon.

    I contacted my web host and he is looking into it. I really wish I knew more about WP. Thank you both for your help!

    You did not mention who your hosting comp. is. But you should have a Control panel (cPanel or Plesk are common) and in there should be a choce for PhpMyadmin. It lets you view and edit the database directly for WOrdpress. If you google the you can find directions on how to use.
