In reply to: Link to old blog no longer worksYep, you were right!
.htaccess was the problem, indeed!
I restored the old version that I deleted, and now it works again.The only problem I’m now having, is that the redirect to my new 404.html is not working.
I added ErrorDocument 404 /404.html all the way at the end of the htaccess file, but it doesn’t accept it. It goes to the 404 of the old blog’s installation.

The old .htaccess was replaced when I switched to the new config.So here’s the story.
I took over with WordPress installed in the root.
I left everything of the old WordPress in the root, built a new website of which the files are also in the root, and a separate blog which I installed in camiguin.ph/blog.The new website is running from index.html (and the index.php from the old blog is still in the root).
I made a link from the new blog to the old blog which I called archives. That link used to work.
Then a week or two ago I updated to WP4.2.2. I didn’t check all the links, but yesterday I got a mail from someone who tried to access the archives and got the 404.So the weird thing to me is that I can’t find the db file with the content of the old blog on the server (it’s supposed to be in the themes folder, right?).
But when I log in to the old dashboard, I can still see the posts, and edit them. But when I click View post or the permalink, it returns the 404 again.Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Link to old blog no longer worksI can access the posts via the dashboard. Can edit them and all that, but when I click view, the permalink doesn’t work anymore.
Everything is there, it just won’t open the pages in the browser.Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Link to old blog no longer worksI know where the old stuff “should” be, but it isn’t there anymore in my FTP/file manager. As I stated in my message, the old link did work, but it stopped working, after I updated to WordPress 4.2.2.
It’s not in /oldblog. The link to the old blog is in the link in the navigation on the new blog. THAT particular link is not working anymore for some reason.Forum: Fixing WordPress

Starting over indeed was the quickest way to solve it. Deleted everything and reinstalled. Now it’s working.Check for the next “problem” in my next post 😀

In reply to: Problems logging in to dashboardThanks for your reply.
I tried the above, and as soon as I change the wp-config I get an error message that there was an “Error establishing a connection with the database” (even if I wait for awhile and refresh).
As soon as I change back the wp-config to its original file, it loads again.
I found the username and password from the wp-config file, but when I enter that information it won’t let me in.As far as I know the info in the wp-config is correct, my only problem was that I couldn’t login to the WP dashboard and with the information from the wp-config I thought that would be solved, but apparently it isn’t…
