Sorry, Marcus, for some reason I never saw your original reply, and had forgotten about it. I’ll try to recreate the situation in the morning.
Thanks. Dennis.
I have this problem as well, and implemented the fix, which “sort of” worked. If I type in domainname/index.php it does display my blog, where WP 2.7 unmodified would display my index.html page.
But … in the WP dashboard, clicking on the view site will display the html page. Because … domainname/index.php/ (with the trailing slash) isn’t the same as index.php
So more work to do unless someone has a fix to that. I looked at frisco’s site that he mentioned, and he has the same situation also, index.php/ will go to his html page, so it isn’t must my failure to install the change properly, I guess.
