I realise it’s not your site, was merely drawing a comparison to the content, keywords, url etc. The point I believe I’m trying to make is your site is extremely similar to that of failblog. So I’m not sure what your point is posting here?

“Just because you build it, it doesn’t mean they will come”.

A high ranking, good SEO and AdWords doesn’t automatically translate into traffic is another point.

After it refreshes, try going to yoursite.com/wp-admin/, as sometimes I find the referrer url is the login page, which continues to display, but you’ve actually logged in.

See if you can access the Admin panel anyways.

No problem.

I normally download the Boiler Plate from their site and build a theme from scratch or I have a theme I prepared myself where I have stripped out what I don’t need. But I find it the best, I see you use the 960 grid CSS along with it, so both get the thumbs up from me. I find they reduce the incompatibilities across browsers, leaving me free to concentrate on smaller issues.

I’m only going by the error report my system produced, and keeping in mind it was on a Windows XP VM running a native IE8 browser, that was the file it reference in the report. It could simply be browser being unable to understand the html5 stuff, and without sufficient backwards compatibility it just gives up and crashes out.

Try to re-enable Modernizr and see if it stops the issue from happening. I haven’t really started developing fully in HTML5 due to cross browser and backwards support, so I thankfully haven’t encountered similar issues before.

Any chance that is has to do with your use of HTML5, which isn’t supported in < IE8…

I would suggest trying to use Modernizr which I see you have installed, but perhaps there is some extra configuration you can do to ensure stability. I generally use the HTML5 boilerplate as well, and usually have no issue with backwards compatibility.

My IE8 VM crashes, and quickly recovered. The .dll that complaining was mshtml.dll, which I’m sure I could do a bit of background research on.. it might have something to do with parsing the DOM, and when it’s encountering ‘article’ or ‘section’ tags it may be throwing errors and thus crashing the browser.

Hope this helps somewhat. Good luck with the fix. It’s very frustrating for you I’m sure.

SaaS means as you say, renting as it’s software as a service. So of course you have to pay. It’s a given that you have to spend money to make it. Just like a physical shop pays rent.

I have used the wp-ecommerce plugging previously. I can’t speak for any third party themes as I normally develop my own from scratch. Just trying to help you out with suggestions. If the client want to pursue a serious online business they’ll probably need to invest in this, so the rent should be pretty minimal to them. Anyways, just ideas to consider.

It will not stop you entering any links. But you could write your own javascript to remove any links.

Good luck.

adding a plugin so that the address ends in .html

Did you try removing the plugin? To see if this is the problem?

WordPress can try to create the code for the Permalinks in Settings > Permalinks? See if it matches what you have?

Remove the plugin, and regenerate your Permalinks file (.htaccess) file and see if that fixes the problem.

It looks as though there may be a conflict with it.

If you can post the code from your .htaccess file that would be handy.
