# Post Referrer Problem/Concern

 * I just upgraded to WP 2.0 and I’m thrilled! I’ve only run into one problem: when
   I tried to post it gave me the “enable sending referrers” error. I looked that
   up and have determined that the problem is that my bookmark is directly to my
   post.php page, and therefor the referrer isn’t a wp-admin page and thus it isn’t
   letting me post. If I click on a different admin page first, then back to post.
   php and try, it lets me.
 * I’ve had post.php bookmarked for years now, and that’s really the way I prefer
   to do it – going to the dashboard takes forever to load. So I need some way of
   disabling the referrer for this page, or even setting it up so that any referrer
   from my domain is accepted. I understand it’s an extra security measure, but 
   it already checked that I logged in, correct? I don’t need/want to turn this 
   feature off for everything, just my post.php would be fine.
 * Thanks for any help you can provide.

 * Okay, I’ve solved the problem. I did find out how to disable it in post.php, 
   but in doing some testing I found out that I SHOULD be able to post even with
   a direct bookmark to post.php, even with it enabled – the problem was my urls
   didn’t quite match (www.domain.com vs domain.com) and that was causing the issue.
   Touchy thing.
