Thanks for telling me I wasn’t just missing something simple. Guess I’ll just have to live with a category prefix of “c” or something. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [Anyone connected WP and CVS for blog version control?](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/anyone-connected-wp-and-cvs-for-blog-version-control/) * [maphew](https://wordpress.org/support/users/maphew/) * (@maphew) * [19 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/anyone-connected-wp-and-cvs-for-blog-version-control/#post-405687) * the closest I’ve found so far is [http://www.watershedstudio.com/portfolio/software/wp-versioning.html](http://www.watershedstudio.com/portfolio/software/wp-versioning.html) and [http://rephrase.net/days/05/04/post-versioning](http://rephrase.net/days/05/04/post-versioning) but they haven’t been touched in a year and half so I’m reluctant to use them.

Very handy! Suggestion: add a “your statistics” link to the right hand menu which points to this same screen.

I tried setting the permissions again, to 755, taking care to include all `wp-content` files and subdirectories and this time it *did* fix things. I must have missed one last time. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [each post on own url](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/each-post-on-own-url/) * [maphew](https://wordpress.org/support/users/maphew/) * (@maphew) * [21 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/each-post-on-own-url/#post-92783) * I’d like to be able to do this too! * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [w.bloggar and WP](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wbloggar-and-wp/) * [maphew](https://wordpress.org/support/users/maphew/) * (@maphew) * [21 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wbloggar-and-wp/#post-93384) * 404 means page not found, which makes it sound like a configuration issue. I am by no means an expert, but I have managed to make a couple of posts using w.bloggar. I’ve since stopped using it though because it seemed to not get the Categories right all the time and I’ve been wanting to use the Markdown plugin which wb doesn’t support. * Forum: [Requests and Feedback](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/requests-and-feedback/) In reply to: [Easy Backup & Restore a must!!](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/easy-backup-038-restore-a-must/) * [maphew](https://wordpress.org/support/users/maphew/) * (@maphew) * [21 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/easy-backup-038-restore-a-must/#post-91813) * Being somewhere between an average user and a geek, I am comfortable using phpmyadmin to backup and restore the WP database. However I’d still really like to see something like Stoofa described for phpBB, largely because it would be more convenient. I’m using WP in the first place because of its famous 30 second install. There are a variety of other tools out there with similar functionality, and some of them have installation procedures which aren’t *that* much work. None that I’ve looked at though are as _convenient_ as WP. 🙂 I should have to install WP only once or twice at most, backup and restore though will happen much more often. So in my mind, having a 30 second backup/restore feature in WordPress is perfectly in line with its core goals. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [Markdown href bug](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/markdown-href-bug/) * Thread Starter [maphew](https://wordpress.org/support/users/maphew/) * (@maphew) * [21 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/markdown-href-bug/#post-89366) * eep, no, there are no spaces in my wordpress articles, just in the forum message( though how I managed to do that I don’t know). * Forum: [Installing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/installation/) In reply to: [Re-installing over broken install?](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/re-installing-over-broken-install/) * [maphew](https://wordpress.org/support/users/maphew/) * (@maphew) * [21 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/re-installing-over-broken-install/#post-81752) * yup, that did it.

I still get the login page instead of the install page when going to `wordpress/wp-admin` . Can phpmyadmin be installed on a server where I don’t have shell access?
