  • Hi jasonskinner88, skinnnerartstudio.com is not a registered domain. Did you type it in correctly?

    If you don’t have access to wp-admin, you’ll need to use FTP or some type of File Manager to edit your files. It’s best to contact your web hosting provider if you’re not sure how to manually edit your files.

    Forum: Fixing WordPress
    In reply to: Custom permalink

    Hi Lanks, to confirm, you need to create this URL http://www.bullerswood.bromley.sch.uk/bbcschoolreport, but you’re not using permalinks in WordPress?

    There are many ways you can accomplish this. Some depend on this, that, and the other. For example, you’ll need apache’s mod_rewrite installed on your server to work with permalinks.

    I have a history of doing things in a manner that is easy for me, so the idea below is not really the ideal way for WordPress users to accomplish your task. This, however, should be very easy to setup.

    1. Create a folder in your WordPress site, call it bbcschoolreport

    2. In that folder, create an index.php file and put in the following code:

    <?
    	Header( "HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently" );
    	Header( "Location: http://www.bullerswood.bromley.sch.uk/?p=123 " );
    	exit();
    ?>

    This way, when someone visits http://www.bullerswood.bromley.sch.uk/bbcschoolreport, it will redirect them to http://www.bullerswood.bromley.sch.uk/?p=123

    Easy peasy, as long as the BBC is OK with /bbcschoolreport redirecting.

    Hi rehtaeh, sorry for getting back to you so late. With the cell padding issue, I recommend trying the following:

    Add the following code to your css file:

    table.padded_table1 { border-collapse: collapse; }
    table.padded_table1 th { border-width: 1px; padding: 4px; border-style: inset; border-color: gray; }
    table.padded_table1 td { border-width: 1px; padding: 4px; border-style: inset; border-color: gray; }

    … then, with your table, add a class to it like this:

    <table class='padded_table1'>

    … That should do the trick. I’ve used a few content management systems in the past that had default table styles that were a bit difficult to find and change, and I found that simply creating a new class and assigning it to my tables was the easiest solution.

    Hi Kevin, glad to hear you’re making some progress! Be sure to keep us updated, hopefully everything will get sorted out soon if not already.

    Hi CocoCarina, the plugins, while some of them may use a database, are not transferred over when you migrate the database. You’ll want to be sure that you use FTP to copy everything in your wp-content/plugins folder as well.

    Hi Walter, were you able to sort this one out? Keep us updated, as I’m sure we can help find the resolution for you.

    Hi khaos337, hoped I helped! Keep us updated, I’m curious to hear how this task goes for you!

    Hi Stephanie, yes! You should be able to find wp-config.php from within your FTP client (such as FileZilla, Cyberduck, or any number of free FTP clients available).

    Just on a side note, be sure you make a backup of any file you edit, it’s better to be safe than sorry.

    Hi khaos337, basically what you’re going to want to do is setup some type of ‘hook’ so that when your users log into your software, your software also attempts to log them into WordPress. In most software this is done with cookies, so your software will need to create a “logged in” WordPress cookie for the user.

    Things can get a bit complicated from here. I’ve never does this with WordPress before, but I’ve done it with Joomla, and it was a bit of a hassle.

    I did some searching, and hopefully some of these articles may point you in the right direction:

    Autologin a WordPress user in your PHP script

    …so I found the code that automatically logged in a user, which I then added to the top of my PHP-script, and voila, the problem was solved:

    WordPress Auto-Login

    A lot of what WordPress does is due to your .htaccess file. For example, if an file or folder does not exist, the WordPress takes over, reads the url, and then decided what data to show the user.

    For example, if you have a WordPress page at domain.com/category1/post-title, there is not actually a folder named “category1”, WordPress handles this.

    The opposite is going on here, however. This is a legit file on the server, so WordPress’ code should not be executed when trying to load this file:
    http://tactixarmory.com/wp-content/themes/twentyeleven/images/search.png

    Can you confirm that this file actually exists on your server?
    http://tactixarmory.com/wp-content/themes/twentyeleven/images/search.png

    It’s also strange that when you visit that URL it adds a slash to it as in:
    http://tactixarmory.com/wp-content/themes/twentyeleven/images/search.png/

    If the file is in fact there, I suggest disabling your .htaccess file (by simply renaming it to something other than .htaccess, such as .htaccess.bak) and then checking the URL to search.png again to see if it will load for you.

    Ah, gotcha. What software are you using for your site now? Or, are you trying to use BOTH blogger and WordPress at the same time?

    Hi khaos337, if I was in your shoes, what I would do is:

    1. Review the current structure of the table in WordPress that holds all user data

    2. Look into a way of importing your current user data so that all your current users are valid WordPress users in the database.

    One of the images that I see NOT loading is the following:

    http://tactixarmory.com/wp-content/themes/twentyeleven/images/search.png

    When I visit this page, I get a php error:

    http://tactixarmory.com/wp-content/themes/twentyeleven/

    If I test one of my own sites calling this url:
    /wp-content/themes/twentyeleven/

    … I don’t get an error. I suspect that maybe not all of your WordPress files uploaded. I would suggest either uploading wordpress again, or comparing your current files against a working version of WordPress to see if you are missing any files.

    Hi annalouis, I don’t think I can answer your question specifically, but I did want to chime in with this note as it may help.

    A default installation of WordPress already includes a version of jQuery, so you shouldn’t need to take any additional steps to install it. It may be that if you’ve “installed” jQuery twice, the two versions may be conflicting with each other.

    Hi vikkineal, I found this article they may help you:

    Enabling Line Break “
    ” in WordPress

    TinyMCE-Advanced from wordpress is a wordpress plugin, which adds the option to disable the removal of <p> and
    tags when saving a post and in the HTML editor (autop). After installing-activating, the option to enable line breaks can be found in the Settings->TinyMCE Advanced panel.
