Forum: Localhost Installs
In reply to: Database connections failing on localhostThanks for the information. I got you message after I trying many things and what got me in was turning off password requirement for phpMyadmin. Then once I got logged in all my databases were gone but one. I have no idea how all this happened. At first I updated WordPress on one of my local sites. Everything was fine. Then I tried fixing the issue where the wamp icon would not change from orange to green. So a combination of changing files and logging in with command line changing the password and flushing privileges screwed it up. I also had an early install of MySQL and I removed that. Lucky none of my files were deleted. I removed MySQL and Wamp. Reinstalled and imported a database from the online version.
Any idea why the login would get corrupted like this? Does if have to do with not shutting down or logging out?

In reply to: Define upload images folderThis should work if you want to do it this way.
<img src='/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/images/xyz.gif' />
It depends on if you have wordpress in its on folder. But You should move away from HTML content so everything can be more flexible with dynamic links using PHP. If your URL changes you change one file and everything doesn’t break.Forum: Fixing WordPress

In reply to: Define upload images folderI don’t know if you are putting this directly in a post or page. Or are you putting it in a function? You can try this:
$upload_dir = wp_upload_dir(); echo '<img src="'. $upload_dir['basedir'] . '/images/xyz.gif" />'; or this: echo '<img src="'. site_url() . '/wp-content/uploads/images/xyz.gif" />';Forum: Fixing WordPress

In reply to: Can't access admin cpJust trying to help. There was a reason I was asking what your “site” URL was not your URL. Your WP site URL. You said emilniemi.com/a So do you log in at emilniemi.com/a or emilniemi.com

In reply to: Define upload images folderIs the images folder like this?
…/wp-content/uploads/images/ You need to work out where you uploaded images will be stored going forward. Such as date and year. Then there are WP functions to display the directory path.Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Repair database not workingIf you are not on a dedicated server then that is not the problem. If you do have control over it you should be able to reset it.
