In these cases you need to make changes directly in the database. * Let me know if you’re still having trouble. * Forum: [Localhost Installs](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/localhost-installs/) In reply to: [moving DB from remote server to desktop](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/moving-db-from-remote-server-to-desktop/) * [ibullock](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ibullock/) * (@ibullock) * [14 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/moving-db-from-remote-server-to-desktop/#post-2515366) * Hi mzimmers, * I was flagged for “spam” last week, so that might explain my posts not displaying. * Anyway, in your wp-config, did you check the name of the database there and the one you created on your localhost? If you named your database at all differently on your localhost vs. the remote server this would cause the error. * An error establishing database connection practically has to be a misconfigured wp-config file, since it handles the connection to the database. * Forum: [Localhost Installs](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/localhost-installs/) In reply to: [moving DB from remote server to desktop](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/moving-db-from-remote-server-to-desktop/) * [ibullock](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ibullock/) * (@ibullock) * [14 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/moving-db-from-remote-server-to-desktop/#post-2515364) * Do you have the WordPress install in the root of your localhost? * I generally install mine in a subfolder so that they can be accessed with URLs like [http://localhost/My-Website/](http://localhost/My-Website/) this helps avoid problems with any other files stored in the root. * For example, MAMP/WAMP have some files in the root by default that help you browse the directory. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [A bit of HTML and picture trouble.](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/a-bit-of-html-and-picture-trouble/) * [ibullock](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ibullock/) * (@ibullock) * [14 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/a-bit-of-html-and-picture-trouble/#post-2525925) * Hi incedo, * You’ll need to change: * `Error` * to: * `Error` * href is used for links where as src is used for images. * Hope that helps! * Forum: [Localhost Installs](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/localhost-installs/) In reply to: [New Page not able to publish and view](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/new-page-not-able-to-publish-and-view/) * [ibullock](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ibullock/) * (@ibullock) * [14 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/new-page-not-able-to-publish-and-view/#post-2525349) * Hi ashishpurohit, * This problem is likely with the permalinks to the pages. * With localhost installs you have to enable Apache’s mod_rewrite module to get permalinks to work. * There’s a tutorial here: [How to make WordPress Permalinks work in Xampp](http://www.lancelhoff.com/how-to-make-wordpress-permalinks-work-in-xampp/) * The tutorial is XAMPP specific, but it applies to MAMP/WAMP too. * Forum: [Localhost Installs](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/localhost-installs/) In reply to: [moving DB from remote server to desktop](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/moving-db-from-remote-server-to-desktop/) * [ibullock](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ibullock/) * (@ibullock) * [14 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/moving-db-from-remote-server-to-desktop/#post-2515362) * Hi mzimmers, * You’re probably going to have to change the username and password for the database in the wp-config.php file for your WordPress install. * By default the username for your localhost should be “root” and the password will probably not be set. * The lines of code in the wp-config should look like this: * ``` /** MySQL database username */ define('DB_USER', 'root'); /** MySQL database password */ define('DB_PASSWORD', ''); ``` * You might also need to change the WordPress address (URL)and the Site address( URL) in your WordPress admin under Settings>General Settings. * Forum: [Localhost Installs](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/localhost-installs/) In reply to: [Increase 2MB limit when uploading a Photo to a page](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/increase-2mb-limit-when-uploading-a-photo-to-a-page/) * [ibullock](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ibullock/) * (@ibullock) * [14 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/increase-2mb-limit-when-uploading-a-photo-to-a-page/#post-2508757) * You may also want to try changing the following in your php.ini: * memory_limit = 1000M * You might not need it at 1000, but you get the idea. * I’m not sure of the differences between WAMP and MAMP, but on my WAMP installation there are two php.ini files, one in the php folder as you’ve noted, and one in the bin for Apache. * As Chouby noted, make sure you restart your sever, or at least the PHP service. * Something else to check are any .htaccess files for the site or the root directory. Upload size can also be affected by changes there. That being said, I’ve made my fair share of WordPress installs and never had that problem. The php.ini seems to be the typical fix. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Code after wp_footer() not executing](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/code-after-wp_footer-not-executing/) * Thread Starter [ibullock](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ibullock/) * (@ibullock) * [14 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/code-after-wp_footer-not-executing/#post-2390943) * Looks like something got uncommented in the theme’s functions.php and was causing a bunch of errors down the line. * Thanks for the help! * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Code after wp_footer() not executing](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/code-after-wp_footer-not-executing/) * Thread Starter [ibullock](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ibullock/) * (@ibullock) * [14 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/code-after-wp_footer-not-executing/#post-2390941) * Hi Brad, * I’m just getting a start on debugging things this morning. Looks like a few plugins are having issues. “Headers already sent” seems to account for most of them. But some are also coming up with undefined indexes. * Thanks for the tip about the DEBUG setting in wp-config, I don’t know why I didn’t think about that. * I’ll post again once I’ve got things figured out. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Code after wp_footer() not executing](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/code-after-wp_footer-not-executing/) * Thread Starter [ibullock](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ibullock/) * (@ibullock) * [14 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/code-after-wp_footer-not-executing/#post-2390875) * Here’s a pastebin of what the page code looks like when I view page source: * [http://pastebin.com/8mqmUH0e](http://pastebin.com/8mqmUH0e) * Things look pretty normal other than the closing tags not rendering. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Code after wp_footer() not executing](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/code-after-wp_footer-not-executing/) * Thread Starter [ibullock](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ibullock/) * (@ibullock) * [14 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/code-after-wp_footer-not-executing/#post-2390873) * There’s really not much to put into pastebin.

Here’s what fixed things for me: * Changed reading settings for “Blog pages show at most” from 10 to 5. * That solved the 404, but then my query wasn’t working properly so I changed it to look like the follow: * ``` $year=$wp_query->query_vars['year']; $month=$wp_query->query_vars['monthnum']; $page = (get_query_var('paged')) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1; query_posts('cat=3&paged='.$page.'&posts_per_page=3&year='.$year.'&monthnum='.$month); ``` * Hope this helps anyone else looking to paginate their archive! * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[WP-Paginate] [Plugin: WP-Paginate] Archive Pagination redirects to home page?](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wp-paginate-archive-pagination-redirects-to-home-page/) * Thread Starter [ibullock](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ibullock/) * (@ibullock) * [15 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wp-paginate-archive-pagination-redirects-to-home-page/#post-1917592) * Any suggestions for something to look into as a solution? * This is happening on another site I’ve worked on as well, only on it there are some sections of the archive that paginate perfectly. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[WP-Paginate] [Plugin: WP-Paginate] Archive Pagination redirects to home page?](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wp-paginate-archive-pagination-redirects-to-home-page/) * Thread Starter [ibullock](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ibullock/) * (@ibullock) * [15 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wp-paginate-archive-pagination-redirects-to-home-page/#post-1917564) * The link for my localhost is: * [http://localhost/Wordpress/2011/02/page/2/](http://localhost/Wordpress/2011/02/page/2/) * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[WP-Paginate] [Plugin: WP-Paginate] Archive Pagination redirects to home page?](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wp-paginate-archive-pagination-redirects-to-home-page/) * Thread Starter [ibullock](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ibullock/) * (@ibullock) * [15 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wp-paginate-archive-pagination-redirects-to-home-page/#post-1917552) * They’re exactly the same, and also producing a 404. * Oh, and I’ve tried changing Permalink structure, but still get the same thing.
