temp IP url – problem with admin interface

    Hi,
    Have an odd issue I need to resolve.

    Am redesigning an existing site, so have installed WP on the new server.
    I’ve edited the wp.config file to define the WP_HOME and WP_SITEURL with my temp IP-address/~username

    I can now see the site in the browser fine, but the admin interface is only loading html… no css (unsure if php or js are being loaded either)

    My client will need access to populate the site with me, so need to get the dashboard loading properly

    am I missing a setting somewhere?

    using chrome’s inspector, and hovering over the links in the <head>, it looks as though it’s trying to call http://xx.xx.xxx.xx/~username/xx.xx.xxx.xx/~username/[wp-path-to-css]
    ie…. looks as though it’s doubling up on the temp url (though this may just be a bug/feature of the inspectors’ hover function?)

    Ahhhh… fixed the issue

    When editing the config file, I entered IP and Username for both
    xx.xx.xxx.xx/~username

    but…
    didn’t prepend with http://

    switched both to
    http://xx.xx.xxx.xx/~username

    and now works fine

    Sorry for pointless post – though maybe this will help someone else out with the same issue !

    thanks 🙂
