Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: Lynda.com – Building an online portfolioWow Andrew! Thanks for pointing that out! Such a minor detail that I totally missed. So in a Windows install, when the forward and back slashes are mixed up like that, does it not matter? Or is it because the theme name was not included, along with the underscore rather than a hyphen that caused the slashes to get mixed up like that?

In reply to: Lynda.com – Building an online portfolioHi Clarence,
I am noticing a mixture of forward and back slashes, but am not a hundred percent certain that is the cause. In your code:
<?php include_once(ABSPATH . 'wp_content/themes/posttypes.php'); ?>try changing the forward slashes to back slashes:
<?php include_once(ABSPATH . 'wp_content\themes\posttypes.php'); ?>Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: How do I create a private Dev site to test plugins?Hi djchriscruz,
Your best bet would be to install WordPress locally on your hard drive which would allow you to mirror your hosted site. This Codex article talks about ways of setting up a test environment: Test Driving WordPress, although the first option they provide won’t allow you to test plugins since it is meant only for styling. Check out the other options because I think they could be suited for your needs.
Good luck!

In reply to: wordpress update and plugin problemUpHi hica23,
Did you happen to disable any of your plugins prior to upgrading? It is optional per the upgrade instructions, but happens to be one of the most important steps due to potential plugin incompatibilities with the latest versions of WordPress. Please see the article Updating WordPress for more information.
If you did not disable any active plugins, try this:
From your hosting control panel file manager or through an FTP program, rename the wp-content/plugins directory to something else. That will force all plugins to get deactivated. You will then be able to visit the administrative control panel. Afterwards, you can rename the plugin directory back to plugins.
Hopefully this helps!

In reply to: Spam link in templateHi,
It will take some effort to find the spam link since there could be many possibilities. There was a post about a year ago by someone that had a similar issue with a response from one of the experts on anything WordPress. Read the post and then check out the links provided by Samuel B (aka Otto or Samuel Wood) who explains the whole thing. Here is a link to the post: Spam Link Insertion Hack. He also provides a link to an article on how to protect your WordPress installation.

In reply to: WordPress Post editorHi Noela,
What did you last do before you noticed the problem? Did you just upgrade to a new version of WordPress? What theme are you using?
Try the following:
1. Deactivate all plugins or reset plugins folder to see if this resolves the problem – How to Deactivate All Plugins When Not Able to Access the Administrative Menus
2. If the above works, re-activate the plugins one at a time until you find the plugin that is giving you problems
3. Switch to the default theme; sometimes non-default themes can cause issues including the one you are havingForum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: login page problemPlease try the steps recommended in the following Codex article: Login Trouble.

In reply to: Let someone work within adminHi shaunybhoy,
Based on your needs, am I correct to assume that you’d like to allow someone to be able to edit existing posts and pages? If not, can you clarify what other tasks will be done?
Have a look at the Codex article Roles and Capabilities to see the differences between available WordPress Roles.

In reply to: WordPress Timezone IssueHi fitzgerardv,
The problem is not in your WordPress installation, nor is it a problem with plugins. The source of the date/time information is the machine/server your WordPress installation is running on. Also, the server’s time may not necessarily be in synch with the database server time.
You can let your host know that the time on your WordPress timezone setting is not being reflected properly which may indicate that the setting of the server’s time may be incorrect.

In reply to: Restored database using cpanel but cant see any postsHi Zummatul,
Hopefully you created a child theme first, before editing the functions.php file directly or adding any other customizations. If you did, you can revert/switch to the default leetpress theme (the original one) just to find out if all of the errors go away. If they don’t go away, see if switching to Twenty Twelve theme works, also recommended by Esmi.
Good luck!

In reply to: error uploading photosHi Larry,
You are having some permission issues. Check out some of the older posts that contain the recommended solutions involving changing the permissions on your server. For Windows Error The Uploaded File Could Not Be Moved. The solution is the post by Samuel B in response to the poster of the problem.
Here is another one for Linux server based installations Permissions Problems Uploading Images.

In reply to: Scheduled posts not posting since upgrade to 3.5Hi,
Were you able to first try the recommendations in the Troubleshooting WordPress 3.5 Master List, specifically where the post text begins with:
- flushing any caching plugins you might be running, as well as server and/or browser caches.
- deactivating all plugins (yes, all) to see if this resolves the problem…
Scheduling posts hasn’t been an issue since the upgrade and technically, you shouldn’t need a plugin to schedule posts. Also check out the following post when this issue happened to another individual after upgrading to a prior version: Tags Schedule Post Problem After Update.
I hope those initial basic steps help solve your issue.

In reply to: Restored database using cpanel but cant see any postsHi,
Do you recall what you were doing in the cpanel just before your site went blank?
