 * True!
 * So when moving an established WP install from one location to another, what should
   be done?
 * Backup existing site and DB
    Remove current site (SSH) Upload new site (FTP)
 * Last time I did not update my .htaccess girl but when I compared them, they were
   both the same.
 * Can anyone help?

 * Hi James,
 * No it’s not Multisite. I have just removed the site and FTP’d the old site back
   for now.
 * Can anyone advise on transferring a WP site from a sub-domain on the server to
   the root directory of the same server? What steps should I take?
 * Could it be a database connection issue since the PHP files are in a different
   location?

 * Thank you James.
 * I have not tried changing themes or disabling themes as the site worked fine 
   when parked over at the sub-domain – plus I also cannot access wp-admin so it
   would be difficult.
 * When I changed the file name of my .htaccess to .htaccess2 the error changes 
   to:
 *     ```
       Not Found
       The requested URL /eoyummywp/wp-admin/ was not found on this server.
       Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
       Apache Server at thefieldfl.com Port 80
       ```
   
 * And when I change i back to .htaccess the server goes back to:
 *     ```
       Internal Server Error
       The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.
       Please contact the server administrator, jayyyoh@gmail.com and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.
       More information about this error may be available in the server error log.
       Additionally, a 500 Internal Server Error error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
       Apache Server at thefieldfl.com Port 80
       ```
   
 * The code inside of my .htaccess file is:
 * <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On RewriteBase / # RewriteRule ^index\.
   php$ – [L] RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}!-
   d RewriteRule . /index.php [L] </IfModule>
 * Any other ideas?

 * Thank you so much! No idea why it works without that on my other slider posts,
   but hey, whatever works!

 * No. Not in the existing working sliders that load the image or the new ones that
   do not.
    If you look at the source of the page, you will see how the last slider
   image only partially loads. I’ve also tried changing the slider settings to reverse
   load order, randomize it, change the number of slides loaded etc.

 * Thanks Kevin.
 * It’s only for the (new) development of a small restaurant site. Since it’s not
   some load of existing data etc, I can surely take that risk—it’s just never nice
   to lose a few days work.
 * I have been tirelessly researching Git, GitHub and using a versioning control
   system more robust than Dropbox. It’s just that it’s really, really complicated
   for a graphic designer like me.
    I have set up a GitHub account (paid for private
   repositories) but am not so hot on command line Terminal stuff so tried to install
   their Mac client (fail)—needs to have Mac OS X 10.7 or higher. Then I got [Tower](http://www.git-tower.com/index.html),
   a Git GUI. One of the best I hear. Can’t seem to access the repositories I have
   created with it after an hour.
 * Can anyone advise if they feel Git/GitHub is the correct solution for a 2-person
   design team working on the same WordPress site at the same time?

 * Hi Kevin,
 * Many thanks for the link to your website post! I too have read the blog posts
   about syncing a MySQL database using Dropbox and they all seem to be for single
   developers working between a desktop and notebook at DIFFERENT TIMES. I am wary
   of the potential corrupted database files. Also, I hear you cannot run both instances
   of MAMP simultaneously which is what I am trying to do to work with my partner
   on the same site at the same time.
 * Have you tried this or do you think it is possible?
 * Thanks,
    Jay

 * Just got the site back up and copied CSS, Uploads etc. So it’s working in the
   eoyummywp directory as before. The issue, as I thought, was the ORDER in which
   I attempted to restore. I resolved by:
 * wiping the DB but maintaining same access and settings.
    Clean WP install Theme
   reinstall / activation Plugin reinstall / activation Copy of Uploads directory
   Removing all the MySQL tables created through PHPmyAdmin Adding last working 
   DB backup of tables Viola!

 * ***SLIGHT EDIT TO ABOVE POST***
 * I’m running WP 3.1 with the Gensesis Framework and a child theme too with very
   few plugins (Google Analytics, Scribe, VaultPress and NextGEN). I was developing
   a site on a live server in a directory. I went live, moving index.php and my .
   htaccess to the root and made the appropriate tweeks in each to reference the
   directory with the rest of the files. Finally, I was attempting to get rid of
   the WP directory appearing in the permalink structure and modified site_url and
   home under the main settings from [http://mysiteulr.com/directory](http://mysiteulr.com/directory)
   to [http://mysiteulr.com/](http://mysiteulr.com/)
 * WHITE SCREEN OF DEATH!
 * Since I could not access wp-admin and I have VaultPress I thought it would be
   simple to wind back to the last stable backup of the DB. Problem is, after I 
   re-install WP and point it to the last good version of the DB I still have the
   whitescreen which generates no source code at all. On the VaultPress website 
   they give you the way to resore plugins, themes, uploads and the database ([https://dashboard.vaultpress.com/1228/support/](https://dashboard.vaultpress.com/1228/support/))
   although it does not give a particular order in which to do this. Is this why
   my full-reinstall is not working?
 * My question is, should I do this re-instal in a certain order? Like create a 
   new empty DB for my new WP install, reinstall themes, then plugins and then uploads–
   lastly updating my DB with the old MySQL tables?
 * I have a feeling that because I am connecting a new install of WP to a themed
   and modified version of a database, it’s referencing some things that are in 
   the themes that breaks WP and gets the whitescreen.

 * James,
 * I feel a little stupid now 🙂
 * PHP is _now_ turned on and running. That install.php also seems to work now as
   well.
 * Thanks so much
