 * I have just installed wordpress on my site today. I have two issues happening.
   1_ when you go to my URL [http://www.carlsondesignco.com](http://www.carlsondesignco.com)
   where it is installed it does not load the page. If i go to [http://www.carlsondesignco.com/index.php](http://www.carlsondesignco.com/index.php)
   it did load up. BUT now when i go there it loads the page as simple text, no 
   CSS is applied. When i try to go to my wp-admin page, it loads the same thing.
   My dashboard does not come up. I don’t know what happened or how to fix it.
 * Any help?

 * Hi everyone. Guess what I’m also facing the same thing that kalynna is going 
   through. I tried reinstalling the entire WP from scratch(after deleting everything)
   but with no luck. There are no extra themes or plugins added. The website is 
   in text form with no CSS. Even the login page is also in simple text!

 * ZGani, I believe you responded to my last post and thanks for that, but I guess
   my explanation wasn’t that great. Whatever kalynna is going through I going through
   the same. Here is the link for the my previous post [http://wordpress.org/support/topic/301491?replies=6](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/301491?replies=6)
 * Do you thing it has anything to do with the database on MySQL? (P.S. I haven’t
   touched anything there!)
 * P.S.S. When I actually do try to login, it redirects me to [http://biz-mania.com/index.php/wp-login.php](http://biz-mania.com/index.php/wp-login.php).
 * Many thanks!!!

 * The default site was installed along with the new re-installation of WP. There
   were no other themes uploaded when I tried to login.

 * This can be caused by the setting for blog url being incorrectly set to **[http://biz-mania.com/index.php](http://biz-mania.com/index.php)**
   rather than **[http://biz-mania.com](http://biz-mania.com)**
    If this is the 
   case, it will probably prevent you from being able to log in. You can check whether
   this is the case and correct it by connecting to the database using phpmyadmin
   and looking at the value for **site_url** in the **wp_options** table and correct
   it.

 * [@tknass](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tknass/) – check your .htaccess–
   fantastico’s rewrite rules are inccorect.
    That was the problem with Kalynn’s
   blog, renamed the .htaccess and all’s working fine now.
 * See the result here: [http://healthwealthmatters.com/](http://healthwealthmatters.com/)
 * Rename your .htaccess then reset your permalinks and let wordpress write you 
   a new one. If it doesnt due to permissions issue then creat one and add this:
 * >  # BEGIN WordPress
   >  <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine On RewriteBase /
   > RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule./
   > index.php [L] </IfModule>
   > # END WordPress

 * numeeja – I went to the phpmyadmin and there were no **site_url** in the **wp_options**.
 * ZGani – Not sure if it matters but I have windows hosting plan. At any case I
   tried creating .htaccess through notepad and uploaded it through FTP as I don’t
   have fantastico, changed it to .htaccess file and there was nothing. I’m currently
   using Filezilla.
 * The hosting company is blacknight.com. Not too blog friendly unfortunately.

 * Mkamylink, sorry i didn’t get back to you. I tried to change the default theme
   but couldn;t find how and where. Can you please let me know how? If there is 
   a link I can read and follow the instructions (which goes to everyone) that would
   be great.
 * Many thanks!

 * Are you sure? There should be one & it should be set to your site address, ie
   [http://www.carlsondesignco.com](http://www.carlsondesignco.com)
    can you have
   another look? There’s a guide here: [http://www.tamba2.org.uk/wordpress/site-url/](http://www.tamba2.org.uk/wordpress/site-url/)

 * Ah ok, windows server have their own way of handling rewrite rules. What OS are
   you on?
 * There are modules you can add to handle the rules but am told they are only for
   Windows 2008, Vista and Windows 7 with IIS 7.0 running php under FastCGI mode.
 * Do you have a web.config file in your installation folder?

 * RESOLVED!!!
 * Hi… I thought I already replied to this issue!!! I guess the broadband wasn’t
   very reliable where I was on holidays.
 * Please note I managed to fix the issues I had above. I managed to find the site_url
   in phpmyadmin and changed all the urls to the right one. That fixed everything.
 * many thanks to all the helped with their advice.
 * Regards,
 * tknass
