Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: Error when using theme editorI was able to download theme-editor.php, make a small change, and re-upload. (When I opened it in Notepad, there were lots of “square” characters that I assume are returns. I deleted one square at the end.) Going back into the editor, I’m still getting the same error message when I try to update.
For some reason, permissions don’t show up on my FTP client, FileZilla. The area under the “Permissions” column is blank. When I try to to set permissions using the right-click tool, FileZilla says “command not understood.”
I’m starting to think this is a problem with my host, as a friend of mine who wrote a script for my site once expressed great frustration with the Windows server on which my site is hosted. Yet I don’t know exactly what to ask tech support to do for me.
Thanks for your help so far.

In reply to: Error when using theme editorAlso, I just tried to install a new theme, and got this error message:

In reply to: Error when using theme editorWell, I cleared out my old database, set up a new one, and uploaded a new copy of WordPress, and I’m still getting the same weird error message if I try to make any changes to the two templates that come with WP.
Warning: fopen(C:\Inetpub\vhosts\slowpokecomics.com\httpdocs\blog/wp-content/themes/classic/rtl.css) [function.fopen]: failed to open stream: Permission denied in C:\Inetpub\vhosts\slowpokecomics.com\httpdocs\blog\wp-admin\theme-editor.php on line 60

Could this be a bug with the new version, or some problem with my host? As usual, everything else works fine. Have not tried creating my own template yet, or installing another.

In reply to: Error when using theme editorHmm, thanks. Helpful to know that it’s probably not permissions. I’m not sure what could have gone wrong since I’ve done so little so far (aside from carefully moving the files) but I will try to reinstall.

In reply to: Error when using theme editorAdding: I had to move my WP files to a subdirectory from root after installing, which may have messed with permissions, although everything has been working great up till now.
Also, I believe my site is hosted on a Windows server, not Unix, which may be complicating attempts to CHMOD. Just a guess.

In reply to: How to make index page same as my old URL?Yes, that answers my question, thank you very much. I’m going to move the files to a sub-directory as you mention.

In reply to: How to make index page same as my old URL?Thanks; I actually installed WP in my root directory, since that’s where my current blog is located. But the issue is that I don’t see how to make the front page of my new WP blog have the same URL — example.com/blog.html — as opposed to example.com/index.php. The blog is not located on the front page of my site… see http://www.slowpokecomics.com/blog.html Know what I mean?
