 * I have this same problem but the upload fails even if I log in, it just places
   the blog frontpage in the upload window. I thought it may be a conflict with 
   other image plugins like photopress but doesn’t look like it…

 * Ugh. Messy. This will break a lot of the pages on my main site. 🙁

 * Okay, I fixed it. Since WP 1.5 had the desired behaviour, I took the .htaccess
   from the 1.5 backup dreamhost makes automatically and replaced wp 2.0’s htaccess
   with the older version, and I now have access to the stats folder.
 * I dunno if this will break other things, but it looks like so far it hasn’t.
 * Yay for me!

 * Heh, well I’m happy with them, so let’s not get into that.
 * It’s a fake url, wp 1.5 respected it before (Once I told it to put permalinks
   in a subdirectory /archives that is) but now it doesn’t.
 * Real directories are OK. Hm, I’ll see if I can find a “real url” for the stats
   script and look at it there
 * Incidentally, you want to put your stats in a protected directory, else you’ll
   give free PR to referrer spammers.

 * Tried adding
 * RewriteCond%{REQUEST_URI}!^/path/to/excluded/files
 * this doesn’t work because the directory is virtual too…

 * So am I getting no replies because this is blindingly obvious to fix or because
   it’s too difficult? I’ve searched around and the only suggestion I’ve found was
   to switch off the permalink structure, look at the stats then switch it on again,
   which is less than ideal.
 * Any idea how I can manually edit the .htaccess so it will respect that directory?

 * If you go with dreamhost use the promo code BATTY it gives you a 50$ discount.
   I’ve been with them for a year and I’m happy enough. WP is available as a 1 click
   install, and recently they added a one click upgrade too (Which is nice since
   I really hate upgrading scripts on my sites).
