Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Server Migration: Database issueI figured the issue out.
I wasn’t copying over my wp-config.php file since I was just using the new one that was created when I installed wordpress on the new server.
For whatever reason my old servers config file used:
$table_prefix = ‘wp_table’;
The fresh, new install of wordpress used:
$table_prefix = ‘wp_’;
What I did to fix my issue wasn’t just doing a simple delete of “table” from the string.
Just to make sure everything worked I copied over the username and database details with passwords from the new config file and updated the old config file with those details and simply uploaded the newly edited old config.php file and bam, the database was recognized and the site is working.
P.s, after uploading the edited config file I deleted/emptied the database via phpmyadmin and re-uploaded the database. The site didn’t render properly until I started from scratch on the database upload.
I have spent 2 days trying to figure this stuff out and so I hope that my “guide” here helps someone in the future.
Ok, so I tried it this morning and received a new error:
“site_inaccessible Error Details: The Jetpack server was unable to communicate with your site [HTTP 503]. If you are hosted with Go Daddy, they are aware of this issue, and we at WordPress.com are working with them to fix it. If your site is hosted elsewhere, please contact Jetpack Support: http://jetpack.me/support/”
I host with Hostgator.
After making my initial post on here with the 404 error I installed the Elegant Themes plugin called “Anticipate” and so I simply de-activated just that one and suddenly it worked.
Hope this helps someone else!
I’m thinking it must be new, but let’s see if maybe we can figure out why.
My situation:
Within the last 24 hours I have changed my domains DNS information to point at a new server and so I thought that might be my problem but I’m not sure anymore.
My site is literally brand new, latest version of wordpress and no other plugins installed other then the default ones (askimet, hello dolly, jetpack).
For others having this issue what are your circumstances?
I’m having the same issue right now as well.
Can anyone help?

In reply to: Internet Explorer & FireFox not showing banner. Chrome OKThanks for the replys, it had to be something with my internet connection at the time then. I was hitting reload and it wouldn’t appear but now it’s fine so I don’t really know.
Thanks for taking a look!

In reply to: Blog title issue.I had “Teky” as my blog title in the SEO Plugin settings so I went ahead and deleted that too tonight. The normal “settings” area for wordpress is blank too so I don’t know where google is pulling that info from. I know that I will have to wait for google to update again to see if any change has happened.
Nope, nothing that I can see if the source code :/
This sucks for my seo stuff. I went ahead and did a AIO SEO settings reset just now and reverted my format to ” %post_title% ” of course.
I did see what thing that was interesting though after the rest.
“SEO for Custom Post Types:” That box is no longer checked and compared to my other sites that I don’t have issue on this is the same with them
And:
“Autogenerate Descriptions:” is no longer checked.
Hopefully that was the issue as this is really annoying.
Thanks for your input.
Just thought I would add to this. I’m in the same boat, suddenly stats were not visible, hopefully all of us posting will get someones attention.

In reply to: Footer Issues.Shoot, yeah that looks like it’s a theme option. I can only hide comments and pingbacks.
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Footer Issues.Interesting. Where can I find that option in the dashboard area? I didn’t bother to look outside the themes settings area.
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Footer Issues.I went into my themes settings and from what I see I don’t even have that option anywhere. :/

You will most likely add that url your getting to the player and play it in the Flash Player anywhere on your site.
Try this one.

In reply to: How do I restore a backup?Opps just saw the links you posted.
Sounds to me like you need to re-create your databases in your MySql area. Just like when you first created the blog.
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: How do I restore a backup?What type of file is the backup?
If it’s in the form of a .sql you can go into your cpanel area and you will need to import the file back in. Make sure that you have your databases re-created if your starting over in order for your .sql file to work.
