In reply to: I can't edit the "WordPress address (URL)". It is grayed out.Hi Ializ,
The theme is selected on the backend but on the front side it goes entirely white and has no style or formatting just rows of the content. it looks just like a page does when you use Firefox and view > page style > no style. The only difference is that the page is also missing the images.
It’s really weird.
Am I allowed to put a link in a comment? If I can, I can screenshot what is going on and my settings and put it on my Dropbox. I don’t want to break any forum rules.
Best,

In reply to: I can't edit the "WordPress address (URL)". It is grayed out.Hi laliz,
I did make the recommended changes to my wp_config. Unfortunately when I did it made my site lose the theme. I was wondering if there is a way around that.
My .htaccess is directed to the folder where the site is installed so I’m confused as to why the wp_config when changed to the site url loses the theme.
Thanks,

In reply to: [Bad Behavior] Bad Behavior Destroyed My Website!Thanks for replying.
I no longer have the file to show you the lines before & after line 18, because I fixed the issue early this morning. Basically what it appeared to be was that Bad Behavior left droppings all over the config while removing some on the SQL but not all. So the SQL was looking for files that still had _wp (which Bad Behavior fixed), yet further on in the SQL _randomnamingBadBehaviorsuggestedasbestpractice was still called.
I fixed it by doing a search for it on the SQL & removing it manually. It left behind traces under “active_plugins”. SQL _randomnamingBadBehaviorsuggestedasbestpractice was still called for in the wp_config so I then uploaded an original wp_config & my site came back up.
I guess the take away is to do back up’s before every install (which I do) & uninstall (which I will now do)
I came across 1 problem with Cpanel & R1Soft backups that my host does. They NOT download the current SQL file with a full site backup for whatever reason anymore (they used to). I have found that this is a configuration issue. So be warned – download your Cpanel full backup & also a separate backup of your SQL to be on the safe side. 🙂
Let me say that Bad Behavior WORKS! I luv it as a plugin & will reinstall it on my websites. I also will install it on clients websites now that I have a heads up on potential issues. I like to be the Guinea Pig & then use software on client websites + I always tell them to give a bit to the authors to keep the software free & awesome.
Again Thank You & I hope that my info helps the community 🙂
