In reply to: Upgrading WordPress on WindowsNo – that does make sense. No mud – that does make sense. Now let me ask this.
If I reconfigure IIS with an IP and domain – will I still have to correct the URL’s in the code?
And – if that answer is yes – is there a way to correct the URL’s so they are correct as I create the site?
If we change the URL’s, can I still get to it to develop the site.
In my case – what is the best thing to do? I am lost… as far as what is the best scenario…. maybe what you said earlier – load all of this on a workstation – develop on the workstation – then migrate it to the server?
Sorry I don’t know more about WordPress – but I am trying to learn.

In reply to: Upgrading WordPress on WindowsOk – but I still have my problem. The URL’s are wrong – correct? Do I need to change something somewhere to correct it? Or is it just a matter of getting IIS set correctly? I have not started development of anything because I am afraid it will be wrong – again.
I guess I will just leave the site where it is, and just work on the live site?
As you can probably guess – I am completely lost – and the more I get into it – the more confused. I can get my web site to the point of it looking great – it’s just a matter of getting it so it works to the outside world.

In reply to: Upgrading WordPress on WindowsLooking under WordPress Settings -> General – The WordPress Address (URL) and Site Address (URL) are the same – http://localhost/myeventdj.com. Should either one be changed? In a perfect world – I would like to have a developement/test area, and then a separate live web site area. That way – I can have the development area where I work on the site and make changes, and the live site area where the site is in production and I would copy the development site to production for it to go live.
If that isn’t possible, I’ll just go with where the areas are one and the same. Anything I change effects the live site.

In reply to: Upgrading WordPress on WindowsIt is an actual server here in my server farm/active directory domain at home. Yes – I am using the server to develop my web site. I also want to use the same server in production and host my site. Thought that the server could provide both functionality. Should I do something different? I am just a newbie trying to do it right here.
I tried 2 plugins to change the urls. The velvet one didn’t change anything – and I tried another one and it made my site inaccessible.

In reply to: Upgrading WordPress on WindowsOk – I am worried here. As I mentioned in my previous post – the url’s in the source code seem to be messed up again. Before I did anything else – I brought up the sample page that comes with the default site – and localhost is in all of the URL’s. Did I do somehting wrong? Example – http://localhost/myeventdj.com/wp-content/themes/blogolife-pro/images/favicon.ico”

In reply to: Upgrading WordPress on WindowsWell- as you saw before – I had problems with the links in my web source code being all wrong. I just installed my server again from scratch.
The problem was localhost being in the url code. I just noticed when I logged into my wordpress – that localhost is in the url of the login. Is that normal, or am I messed up again?
I may also have some IIS questions later. Think you might be able to lend a hand there too?

In reply to: Site looks ok on localhost, not on the webWell – unless you guys have a better idea – I guess I will wipe the server and start over. I am not a SQL guru. I did run the plug in at least 4 times. It only fixed things the first time. You can see in the source that the paths were not changed. I don;t know what else to do with my knowledge level.
Dang!

In reply to: Site looks ok on localhost, not on the webOk – may have found the problem. The plug in says itis compatible with WordPress up to version 3.5 I am on 3.6. SHOOT!
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Site looks ok on localhost, not on the webFurther update. Ok – the source is still showing wrong paths. Any other ideas? I thought that that plug in would fix all of them.

In reply to: Site looks ok on localhost, not on the webHello Mr. Bemdesign – I installed it – and put the old url and new url in the page and said go. It said that it fixed over 90 things… but it still shows up wrong. Any other ideas?

In reply to: Site looks ok on localhost, not on the webAnd – yes I do see the problem in the source. DANG – it s everywhere!
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Site looks ok on localhost, not on the webI used the codex to install the WordPress on the server. So – that is why I am confused.
I know I can start over. I would prefer not to. But – I don’t understand what it would take to fi my probe – because I don’t know what part of the article pertains to me problem. AND – even if I did start over – how do I know that I won’t have the same problem. I am not trying to be a pain – just trying to figure out what to do. If I keep what I have – I don’t understand what part of the document to follow to fix the problem. 😀

In reply to: Site looks ok on localhost, not on the webAND – let me ask this. I can wipe this server out and start over again – like I did 2 weeks ago and just build it again – but how do I prevent what happened here from happening again? I don’t know/understand what happened to cause this problem. Maybe something I did wrong on the install?

In reply to: Site looks ok on localhost, not on the webWell – again – I am a newbie. I did look at the article – but I don’t know what to do. How do I know which part to follow? Sorry…
