    It could be anything, maybe you didn’t uninstall wordpress correctly and now there’s a conflict with files.
    The best would be to contact your host and see what’s the problem they may be able to help you.

    Sorry for not being of much help

    If under network admin you cannot add a site that means your wordpress multisite install is somehow broken.

    I would indeed recommend to re-install wordpress and activate multisite if that’s not too much trouble for you. It’s hard to see what really is your problem if I’m not in front of your computer…

    So toppremiumproductgroup.com is already on your server parked as an add-on domain?
    If so then you should be able to add a subdomain or subfolder (whichever you use) in your wordpress network admin. Add that subfolder/domain and use the plugin Ipstenu gave you: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wordpress-mu-domain-mapping/ With that plugin you should be able to redirect that subdomain/subfolder towards toppremiumproductgroup.com. Then you can just configure it the way you want with a theme.

    To setup a ftp you only need the info from your webhost. It’s usually the same login and pass as your cpanel, the address is usually ftp.yourwebsitename.com and there’s no need for a port. If it doesn’t work there’s most likely some type of information in your cpanel telling you how to setup your ftp. Use filezilla for your ftp.

    Then once you access your files on your server you can just go into public_html and unzip wordpress in there or within a subfolder.

    You’ll also need to create a database on your server (usually done through your webhost cpanel) and then refer the info into wpconfig.php.

    Accessorily, most if not all webhost provide access to your server files the same way ftp do using your cpanel, so if an ftp is too complicated for you just use your webhost cpanel

    Bellow this comment box says:

    Did you include a link to your site, so that others can see the problem?

    That would be helpful to visualize your problem and us to help you… if something is overlapping something else try to clear your floats…

    I don’t really understand your problem…
    Are you using the same file above for both pages?
    If the blog categories show up on your portfolio page that means somewhere in your code in portfolio.php there is a php line retrieving those categories.
    Get rid of that line and your problem is gone!Unless I’ve misunderstood your problem

    There’s something you’ve done wrong.

    First, the add-on domain is not connected to wordpress in anyway.Which is why you’re having a problem.

    I’m going to assume that your WordPress Multisite installation is correct and working. What you need to do is create a subdomain called whatever you want but it’s gonna look like subdomain.mhdassoc.com (if that’s the main domain associated with your multisite installation). You create that subdomain from your wordpress backend, not your cpanel in your host. Then you install multiple domain mapping plugin, you should be able to make subdomain.mhdassoc.com look like http://www.toppremiumproductsgroup.com since you have that domain on your host.
    On a side note, whenever you want to have subdomains, you need to go to your server and have a wildcard activated, for that you just need to go into your cpanel of your webhost and click where it says add subdomain and write * and then it will add *.mhdassoc.com that way your subdomains will work.

    I hope this will solve your problem. Let me know

    Your .htaccess is extremely long! is it because you are using S2member or what?
    You also seem to have two different .htaccess, I doubt that is a good thing except if you run two separate wordpress installs…
    If you can I would suggest to erase everything and start the installation over, by then you’ve probably made so many tweakings to fix your problem that you might have forgotten everything you’ve modified. If you cannot, try to look into your .htaccess, wordpress gives you exactly what you need to copy/paste, there’s nothing to modify.
    On mine I just have

    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteBase /
    RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
    </IfModule>

    Also, don’t forget to add a wildcard to your server on your host. To do so just create a subdomain from your host cpanel and put a star like that : *.yourdomain.com it should work then.

    I think your website “disappeared” because your loop wasn’t done in the right place…
    Just in case, in the future if you have comments about your code that doesn’t work, please include your own.

    Yea, I highly recommend it.
    I got a coupon online just type coupon tuts+. I got my first month for $9.95 and got all the ebooks I needed.
    In the ebook called: “wordpress essentials” they have a section on how to transfer wordpress sites.

    it is simple once you make it work once. Then you’ll say “makes sense”
    As far as the excerpt, I don’t know what esmi is talking about but there’s a function you could add to control the length of the excerpt. Just add the following code in your functions.php (remember to always make a copy of the file you are gonna change, just in case):

    /****limit excerpt to first 15 words*****/
    function custom_excerpt_length( $length ) {
    	return 15;
    }
    add_filter( 'excerpt_length', 'custom_excerpt_length', 999 );

    Indeed, don’t use my code either then 😉

    Add the code bellow to your functions.php file, Anywhere but not between other code in case you mess things up. You can put it all the way at the end of functions.php.
    Make a copy of it and save it somewhere before adding the code just in case.
    What it will do for your is basically add the menus section in your wordpress backend. That should help you redo the menu naviguation.

    /****************************************************/
    /* Menus*/
    /****************************************************/
    function register_my_menus() {
      register_nav_menus(
        array( 'header-menu' => __( 'Header Menu' ) )
    
      );
    }
    add_action( 'init', 'register_my_menus' );

    There is no loop.php file, the loop is wherever you want it to be.
    The example I have you is on a template file I’ve created but I think for twentytwelve, the loop is in header.php.

    The example I gave you uses the_excerpt(), if you don’t want any excerpt just don’t put <?php the_excerpt(); ?>.

    My example above also has clickable titles, to do so just wrap the php code around tags. For title it would be <a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a>.
    <?php the_permalink() ?> returns your own address so you don’t have to change it.

    For an image it would be <a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>"> <?php the_post_thumbnail( $size, $attr ); ?></a>

    For more info on the thumbnail Checkout: http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/the_post_thumbnail

    Also, if you don’t already know it, I would suggest to learn some HTML and CSS, just the basics would greatly help anyone. start with w3schools.com for some basics but they do have some small mistakes here and there…

    I was gonna suggest copy pasting your whole folder including the wordpress install and then grabbing your database and save it to then import it into your new host.
    This is one of two methods, the other one is to export all your post and pictures from the wordpress backend , do a clean install of wordpress on your new server, add your template, re-import your post and you should be done. I don’t know if you’ll need to import your database as well but you might…Sorry if it’s not of any help…If you have tuts+ premium they have an ebook talking about moving wordpress and they go into details over those two methods…
