MichaelH Ya, you could be right. Niteblade, Actually I came across this fix from a link to the Doc area in another post string that about redirecting the sub-directory your wp blog is on so it shows as its own domain. I tried to retrace my steps back there but I couldn’t find that post or the information from Documents.

I’m glad this helped you retta.

Cheers

I finally got a fix on my problem.

Mine was a new install into a sub-directory and then I couldn’t log-in the same as everybody above.

What i did, I got the new URL pointed at the right sub-directory without any redirects in place.

Then I went into cPanel/file manager to the functions.php file located at here wp-content/themes/default/functions.php

Then Edit this file at the very top of the functions.php file on the next line after the <?php
add these two pieces of code:

update_option(‘siteurl’,’http://your-new-domain.com/&#8217;);
update_option(‘home’,’http://your-new-domain.com/&#8217;);

Then go and log-in to the blog admin a couple times.
like at the new address: /wp-login.php

Then go and remove the two pieces of code listed above from the functions.php file .

This was just for a new wp-install but I’ve done this on a couple that i was having the same trouble as above and that fixed it.

Cheers

Niteblade,

I tried what you’re doing, In /wp-admin/admin.php I put;

if ( defined(‘ABSPATH’) )
require_once(ABSPATH . ‘wp-load.php’);
else
require_once(‘../wp-load.php’);

if ( get_option(‘db_version’) != $wp_db_version ) {
wp_redirect(admin_url(‘upgrade.php?_wp_http_referer=’ . urlencode(stripslashes($_SERVER[‘REQUEST_URI’]))));
exit;
}

before the call to /wp-admin/includes/admin.php

but it didn’t do it.

Is it working for you after doing that?

Nightblade – Digg50 here – I’ve been following your posts around because you seem to be onto an answer, but I tried changing that code you have there at the top of /admin.php but I didn’t see any change as yet.

You have this string;
require_once(ABSPATH . ‘wp-admin/includes/admin.php’);
but where did you put it?

guioconner – Digg50 here with the same problem . I tried clearing the cookies but that didn’t help. these are new installs a couple i was able to get in after doing a 301 redirect, but this latest one I’ve tried a couple redirects where i can get in but then the browser won’t bring up the blog index.

good luck
