In reply to: Moved WordPress to root and now get a 500 Internal Server ErrorGreat that you got it sorted.
unfortunately I can only change my permalink structure to /blog/postname (or whatever the syntax is). Which is my problem. I had /postname and cannot now return to it.

In reply to: Moved WordPress to root and now get a 500 Internal Server ErrorI have had much the same problem – I think if in the last line you re-write it as index.php instead of /brunel/index.php you may find this helps. I had a similar problem – which was solved by doing what I have suggested only now all my permalinks are classified “blog” instead of under the classifications I gave them.
This is terribly annoying as most of my site is now a 404 to search-engine visitors! Since you know a little about the htaccess file, is there anything you can suggest I do? At the moment in Settings/Permalinks I get the following
Default http://thecatswhiskers.nl/?p=123
Day and name http://thecatswhiskers.nl/blog/2013/02/27/sample-post/
Month and name http://thecatswhiskers.nl/blog/2013/02/sample-post/
Numeric http://thecatswhiskers.nl/blog/archives/123
Post name http://thecatswhiskers.nl/blog/sample-post/
Custom Structure http://thecatswhiskers.nl/blogWhere it used to be without “blog”. What I want is
Custom Structure http://thecatswhiskers.nl/%classification*%?%Sample-post%/ (*or whatever it was termed – I don’t know the specific terminology).
Any suggestions?

In reply to: Add Posts To Pages By Tag.I now use another forum for WordPress help. There are forums where people actually know how to use the WordPress interface.

In reply to: WordPress Network AdminIs that supposed to be an answer?
I will try a better quality forum where answers are given instead of held onto.
You can consider the topic closed because of lack of interest.

In reply to: Failed to upload media picture on the webHave you checked that the picture can be uploaded?
Sometimes people don’t allow “right clicking” with the mouse which acts as a defense against image poaching.
There are work-arounds if you have experience with image manipulation.

You say “It’s these kinds of subtle, but important, differences that can sometimes make our questions and requests for exact details seem rather petty at first glance.” – in regard of your question about editors, you were asking the wrong question in my eyes. I saw **no difference** between the visual and the text editors. You assumed that I did, and that was one root of the problem.
I have used editors of this kind for decades, and never have I had a problem moving from the source code editor to the visual editor.
Nor can I imagine any sensible reason for it stripping out code in the way it does when moving. To me this state of affairs is astonishing.
That however, is not for me to judge. I need now to find an editor that will work sensibly with the WordPress interface so that I can get about my work and let WordPress organize itself in any way it chooses.

In reply to: Posts Having Links DisabledThankyou Samuel. There was much that was of interest, if rather technical.
I think for the moment I am better off using an off-screen editor and posting it into the text editor later. Had I known of the problem, I would have done this from the start!

In reply to: Posts Having Links DisabledAaron,
do I have multiple accounts? Which is my other one? I could use that instead … if you wished.Have you any idea why the interface annuls the changes I make? It makes no sense to me.

In reply to: Posts Having Links DisabledThankyou Esmi. I had no idea that moving between two elements of [what appears to be] the same web page would have such disastrous effects!
When you said “different text editors” or whatever, I imagined you meant … different as in, well, totally different.
Why is it that I can move from ‘visual’ to ‘text’ on my old Seamonkey composer, and not in a super-advanced system like WordPress??? I am astonished! I had simply no idea that such a simple and obvious move would hit back with such force.
Does this have effects when I am composing posts too? Am I losing data unawares??? I guess the answer is “yes”.
I will have to tread more carefully in WordPress now, as these land mines cost much time and waste a lot of effort.
Oh, and when posting as a senior on forums and there is a hot debate going on, I usually state that I am signing off for a while. It means those who can’t see me driving off to Utrecht will at least know I am not present on the web.

In reply to: Posts Having Links DisabledMay I point out that the problem seems to be with the WordPress interface – or has to do with some kind of exception that I can manage should I know where the button is hidden.

In reply to: Posts Having Links DisabledAaron,
my problem is that I would like to have posts that match the heading of the page that visitors can access through the navigation bar.
I tried sorting something out that is automatic – but haven’t gotten around to making up my own page templates.
In the mean time, I am adding links manually. The problem is that the WordPress interface is removing them once they are published – or when I move from “visual” to “text”. Has this perhaps anything to do with “moderate any comments with more than one link” – only these aren’t comments, they’re fully blown pages. It puzzles me that this should happen, as I could post as many links as I chose when using my hand-cranked html site.
I will add that I am an active member of several forums and give advice freely – just as long as I can help. I think this needs a little understanding.

In reply to: Posts Having Links DisabledCan anybody – saving Esmi – give me a hint as to what I can do about these links that are deadened on publishing my page?
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Posts Having Links DisabledIs there any answer to this problem? All I have had so far are more questions!
It is not looking very good, is it? The support is only to make you think that there is help available whist not actually answering the points involved.
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Posts Having Links DisabledThis is using the standard WordPress interface for pages. The one you find under “Page”.
I could use a standard text editor to edit my pages of course, the problem with the links being disabled would probably persist once this code was pasted into he WordPress editor.

In reply to: Posts Having Links DisabledThis page has no working links at all, despite trying to re-insert them.
