The .htaccess files couldn’t be seen in cpanel/file manager, so I did it through filezilla- located ht.access/ highlighted it and selected edit with notepad/ add the text to the bottom of ht.access and click save, another box pops up to say do you want to over write existing, select yes and job done. All is running again!! I have paid for my Hosts back up facility, basically it automatically backs up all websites so you can restore to many points! I know we can manually download backups and restore but I have done that and it took me over two weeks to solve all issues, it costs £28 a year! So think is well worth it if it does what it says on the tin! Thanks Samual B/MOD and hope this is of help to someone else!! * just add the rules # BEGIN WordPress RewriteEngine On RewriteBase / RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}!- d RewriteRule . /index.php [L] # END WordPress to the root .htaccess after the other stuff * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Main page links/pages not found on server/404 error](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/main-page-linkspages-not-found-on-server404-error/) * Thread Starter [kenty](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kenty/) * (@kenty) * [13 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/main-page-linkspages-not-found-on-server404-error/#post-3382602) * Found the solution from a post two years ago – Samual B posted the solution as follows!!

This is my website file path, it just keeps redirecting here even though my webfiles are uploaded and database has no errors. I think my web guy may have tried a work around, hence the wp-admin/install.php file was not found. When this was found the WP install page loads. * [http://www.koolorchids.co.uk/wp-admin/install.php](http://www.koolorchids.co.uk/wp-admin/install.php) * The requested URL /wp-admin/install.php was not found on this server. * Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request. * Head against a brick wall situation now as my Host have said it is a third party issue and my install looks good. * The only thing that really has changed is that my website now is not a primary domain and is a add on domain at my Host, Hostpapa. Is WP trying to load my primary thus not finding my add on domain? * Really appreciate anyone giving advice here, I am desperate to get the site back up and concentrate on more important things… * Forum: [Installing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/installation/) In reply to: [Transferred host and now website loads at WP install page](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/transferred-host-and-now-website-loads-at-wp-install-page/) * Thread Starter [kenty](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kenty/) * (@kenty) * [13 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/transferred-host-and-now-website-loads-at-wp-install-page/#post-3378364) * Just to add I have checked my database structures tables and it comes back clean with no errors at all. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Site constantly being hacked](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/site-constantly-being-hacked/) * [kenty](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kenty/) * (@kenty) * [13 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/site-constantly-being-hacked/#post-3377899) * I had the pharmacy hack, and someone hacked my main page to another basically to swear and prove they could. The easiest way is to do a clean install from a back up you should have taken. * Once WP is working again, take security measures, I found plugins, login lock, wordfence and there are others, do a plugin search and look at reviews etc. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [This site is under developement](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/this-site-is-under-developement/) * [kenty](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kenty/) * (@kenty) * [13 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/this-site-is-under-developement/#post-3378312) * Works for me too! * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Hack attempt, or just spammer?](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/hack-attempt-or-just-spammer/) * [kenty](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kenty/) * (@kenty) * [13 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/hack-attempt-or-just-spammer/#post-3377360) * I also found loginlock very good and it locked out many false login attempts. If you install the above and login lock it should keep you clear of most trouble. Without these and my WP site was troubled with hacks, pharmacy hack was a nightmare and site had to be installed again and got me blacklisted by google! * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Error saving media attachment](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/error-saving-media-attachment-9/) * [kenty](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kenty/) * (@kenty) * [13 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/error-saving-media-attachment-9/#post-3265425) * Hi, I have got the same error and it is doing my head in, surely WP should put out an update for such issues… * Regards Keith Viewing 12 replies - 1 through 12 (of 12 total)
