Gotta tell you, I just tried this a few weeks ago according to the codex link above & had no end of problems. Did NOT work. At all. Had to back out of the whole thing. Am going to try it again using different instructions.

Same deal here after upgrading to 3.0. Have tried a bunch of suggestions; now Akimet seems to be working, but the feeds are still showing the ‘couldn’t resolve host’ error for wordpress.org feeds. Hmm.

Don’t understand the volvoxsoft’s suggestion either. Not that smart ;); how do you reset/reconfigure DNS at server?? I’m not sure that’s the problem anyway.

I found it easier to just punt the pretty permalinks & set them to default after upgrading to 2.7. Otherwise nonw od my internal links would work. Then today once again my internal links would not work for no apparent reason. So, I visited my web hosting panel — I have a WordPress blog through Yahoo Small Business — then the blog control panel & found I had to “update” my blog name to ensure that the entire URL was typed accurately, then go back into WordPress into my settings & make sure that my blog’s URL was typed out completely & accurately. It was not (“www” left off the beginning). Now, why my blog worked just fine for this entire past month, but suddenly did not work today because of missing it’s “www” is a mystery, but perhaps Yahoo or my browser are getting fussier about their X/HTML code & URL’s. Good luck.
