Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Suddenly not working – all 404 errorsI didn’t have any plugins enabled but thank you anyway SupersonicSquirrel 🙂 I took the default 2 that were there and removed them just in case.
I did manage to solve the problem though (yeah!)
I disabled my .htaccess file and tried to get to the admin and of course got a standard 404 error page showing me the wp-login.php couldn’t be found. Well, since I could see it there in the directory I realized that one of the changes I had made in the settings was the site url. My WP is in a subdirectory, and I was hoping one of the url options would actually allow me to have a link back to my main index page… apparently that isn’t possible as I just found out.Anyway, I got into the mysql db and adjusted the setting back to include the subdirectory name that wp is in, and now it all works again. Phew!
Thanks!

In reply to: Suddenly not working – all 404 errorsI just can’t find the problem and not sure where else to look.
I closed my browser and rebooted, tried to get back to my WP admin area but I don;t get a login even though all the wp directories appear to be in tact. All I see is a 404 error with post and page remnants, no theme (yes, the theme directory and theme still do exist).As a last resort I suppose I could remove WP and start from scratch (ugh!) unless anyone has a better idea?
Thank you 🙂
