Does anyone have any ideas?

I checked my new WordPress install and compared it with an older install that I had updated to 2.6.3. * It appears that the new install is missing the wp-includes/js/tinymce folder, along with several other js folders. I’m not sure why these folders were not uploaded with the first install, but it happened twice, because I reinstalled WordPress the first time the tinymce didn’t work. * I uploaded the tinymce file, and the subfolders didn’t upload. So I went in and uploaded those too. So try uploading just those missing folders in the js file and make sure the subfolders upload too. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Plugin: phpbb_recent_topics] Activating in 2.6 doesnt work](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-phpbb_recent_topics-activating-in-26-doesnt-work/) * [desertmagic](https://wordpress.org/support/users/desertmagic/) * (@desertmagic) * [17 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-phpbb_recent_topics-activating-in-26-doesnt-work/#post-812035) * I have the same problem. Any ideas on how to get this plugin to work with WordPress 2.6? * Update: I got this to work. I had to go in and issue a SQL command to give read access to my WordPress database user because I am running two databases (one for WordPress and the other for PHPBB3).

It didn’t. I have a linux server and any permalink with %postname% in it is not working-shows 404 error. Never had this issue previous to 2.6 release. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [WordPress 2.6.1 Error 404s with Permalinks](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wordpress-261-error-404s-with-permalinks/) * [desertmagic](https://wordpress.org/support/users/desertmagic/) * (@desertmagic) * [17 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wordpress-261-error-404s-with-permalinks/#post-846988) * Same exact issue here using Linux hosting. WordPress is in a subfolder called blog. I tried all documented changes and nothing worked.

Previously I was using %postname% and it broke. Tried using index. php/%postname%/ and that didn’t work. * Solution: Use custom structure: %PATHINFO%/ * This will yield the following permalink: * [http://yoursite.com/postname/](http://yoursite.com/postname/) * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Permalinks in 2.6.1 still not working](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/permalinks-in-261-still-not-working/) * [desertmagic](https://wordpress.org/support/users/desertmagic/) * (@desertmagic) * [18 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/permalinks-in-261-still-not-working/#post-835335) * Add me to the list.

I understand I won’t see any effect. But I’m running a membership site with WordPress housed within amember. Amember is not syncing with WordPress because of the auth_key, secure_auth_key and logged_in_key . I already added the info to amember, so I just want to make sure there’s nothing else I need to do with auth_key, secure_auth_key and logged_in_key besides just adding them to wp-config? I’m going to submit to amember too, but their site is down…so any help is appreciated. * Forum: [Installing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/installation/) In reply to: [2.6 unable to login, tried everything](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/26-unable-to-login-tried-everything/) * [desertmagic](https://wordpress.org/support/users/desertmagic/) * (@desertmagic) * [18 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/26-unable-to-login-tried-everything/#post-819155) * Try clearing your cache and cookies.

I inserted into my the htaccess file, which already had some stuff in it.
