You go to insert a picture. You can’t do it. * The workaround is simply this… * Switch from the Visual Editor to the Text Editor. Click the IMG tag. It will prompt you to enter a location for the image file. * You can enter the http from either an external source or the hard link from your Media library. * When you switch back to the visual editor, your image will be there. You will also be able to adjust it’s orientation (left, center, right). * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Add Media not working!

However, once I select an image and click “Insert into Post”, it…. just does nothing. It closes the box without inserting the picture. * Any thoughts? * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Moved Directory / 404 Problem](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/moved-directory-404-problem/) * Thread Starter [dpmsllc](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dpmsllc/) * (@dpmsllc) * [11 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/moved-directory-404-problem/page/2/#post-6079508) * Well, I can do Pretty Permalinks… but only if I move the installation to a sub- folder. Which is what I was trying to do… except when I move to the subfolder the site disappears. * That is the original problem that I was having that caused me to come back and post the problem that I did today. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Moved Directory / 404 Problem](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/moved-directory-404-problem/) * Thread Starter [dpmsllc](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dpmsllc/) * (@dpmsllc) * [11 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/moved-directory-404-problem/#post-6079504) * I moved it back to the root domain and it works exactly as it did before. * There’s got to be a setting somewhere that I changed when I changed directories that needs to be set back. * I made so many changes, I can’t possibly remember the process I did before. * Very frustrating. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Moved Directory / 404 Problem](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/moved-directory-404-problem/) * Thread Starter [dpmsllc](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dpmsllc/) * (@dpmsllc) * [11 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/moved-directory-404-problem/#post-6079502) * Yes, I am able to get into the admin panel there. * I already had the site running and active on an elegant theme. * I created the entire site in a sub-directory * inpiano.com/blog * I then moved it to the root domain where I got it to work with just a few updates to the links * However, Yahoo told me they don’t support WordPress in the root domain. * So, I created the /lessons subfolder and just moved everything back * I already have a theme active. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Moved Directory / 404 Problem](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/moved-directory-404-problem/) * Thread Starter [dpmsllc](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dpmsllc/) * (@dpmsllc) * [11 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/moved-directory-404-problem/#post-6079499) * OK, I just moved my site back to a new sub-directory. I used the method given in the very popular “Giving WordPress Its Own Directory” instructions. * All core files + the three wordpress folders have been moved. * I created a PHP redirect myself, and it is working fine. * However, here’s the new problem… * When I type in my root domain and it redirects to the new directory… OR if I just type in the subdirectory itself… * It displays a blank white page. * A couple of notes: * 1- I am able to get into the admin panel. * 2- The address is [http://www.inpiano.com/lessons](http://www.inpiano.com/lessons) if you want to look at it * 3- I did make sure to update both my WP location and site URL info in the General tab of settings * 4- I can’t update .htaccess because Yahoo doesn’t allow that * 5- Keep in mind… this was originally in a subfolder and I moved it out into the ROOT domain and get it working without being able to edit .htaccess * It stands to reason that I should be able to put it back in a subfolder and do the same. * I looked through the Codex for this, but nothing seemed to match this problem. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Moved Directory / 404 Problem](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/moved-directory-404-problem/) * Thread Starter [dpmsllc](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dpmsllc/) * (@dpmsllc) * [11 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/moved-directory-404-problem/#post-6079299) * I read the article you just posted… and that makes a lot of sense. * The only issue is… and I will put this on here just for posterity or anyone else who might find this thread: * You cannot update or create a .htaccess file at Yahoo for two reasons * 1: They are not running Apache so there are no .htaccess files * 2: Even if they did, Yahoo does not allow customizations like that (this is what the supervisor told me) because it messes with their custom Web control panel in Yahoo Small business * Now, having said that… do you think I could still Give WordPress Its Own Directory… even if I can’t update the .htaccess? * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Moved Directory / 404 Problem](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/moved-directory-404-problem/) * Thread Starter [dpmsllc](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dpmsllc/) * (@dpmsllc) * [11 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/moved-directory-404-problem/#post-6079295) * OK, that last post was incredibly helpful. Essentially, it says that with Yahoo Small Business and WordPress… I need to update the links in the Blog Manager. * So, I went to do that, and it showed my previous installation: * [http://www.inpiano.com/blog](http://www.inpiano.com/blog) * So, I just deleted “Blog” and hit update. * It gave an error. I tried this again, same error. * So, I contacted YSB support, and explained the issue to the tech guy. He sounded completely lost. I was kicked up to his supervisor. * Finally, after 40 minutes, they began to understand the problem and they told me the issue. * With Yahoo hosting, YOU CANNOT HAVE YOUR WORDPRESS INSTALLATION IN YOUR ROOT DOMAIN!!!!!!!!! * Essentially, the WP installation has to reside in a sub-folder and then Yahoo creates a redirect from the root domain. * So, this means I have one of two choices * 1- Keep the installation in my root domain, use the default permalinks, and take the slight hit on SEO * OR * 2- Move the installation BACK to a sub-folder, contact Yahoo and have them do the redirect and just be content with my homepage looking like this * “inpiano.com/blog” * or * “inpiano.com/content” * Or whatever name I choose to use for the sub-directory * Should I choose one over the other? Which of those two are the better options? Is it a neutral thing? * Personally, I like the “look” of the homepage just being inpiano.com with no amendment. I don’t know why. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Moved Directory / 404 Problem](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/moved-directory-404-problem/) * Thread Starter [dpmsllc](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dpmsllc/) * (@dpmsllc) * [11 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/moved-directory-404-problem/#post-6079251) * Well, I could contact them… * If I did, I want to make sure I’m prepared. * Do they simply need to copy that code above into the .htaccess file? Is that all it would take? Or is it more complicated than that / additional steps? * Thank you! * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Moved Directory / 404 Problem](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/moved-directory-404-problem/) * Thread Starter [dpmsllc](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dpmsllc/) * (@dpmsllc) * [11 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/moved-directory-404-problem/#post-6079233) * Yes, I moved it FROM inpiano.com/blog * to the root * inpiano.com * The homepage shows up, but nothing else. * UPDATE * Tried the default… I could have SWORN that I tried that before. * It worked. * So the question I have is…. is there any way to get it to show “post-name”? Isn’t that better for SEO purposes? Viewing 10 replies - 1 through 10 (of 10 total)
