Thank you Peter for the reply.
All in One previously matched the RSS feed to the META descriptions with no word or sentence stoppage. I recently updated both Wordpess (to 3.7.1) and All in One together and the RSS matching broke. I’m not sure which update was the cause.
I really liked the manual excepts in both my RSS feeds and META descriptions, as I could dictate what text was relevant to put in there, in addition to not having line breaks in the middle of sentences. It just made everything flow perfectly for me.
Was it WordPress or was All in One that changed the matching? I have tried to revert back to older WordPress and older All in One, but the funny thing, it still does it now. So now, I’m not sure where or what to begin editing to change it back, i.e., match the RSS to the manual META description. I’m trying to wrap my head around this.
Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: WordPress, Xampp, and Virtual Hosts "Error: PHP is not running"When installing WordPress locally, i.e., via xampp, etc., you CANNOT simply just open your web browser and file open to the install.php file. If you do you’ll get the “Error: PHP is not running” message. What you need to do is run the file locally, i.e., type “http://localhost/path-to-install-file” replacing the correct path to the install.php file in the URL. If your database permissions are correct for the user listed in your wp-config.php file, as well as the password, and of course the DB_HOST is set to ‘localhost’, then the page will render properly.
127.0.0.1 can replace ‘localhost’ if so desired.
I hope this helps those trying to do a local install. It’s pretty common to just file open to a particular file on our computer and expect it to render. But in this instance, your computer is acting like a server and you must tell it where to go but do so as if it were a proper http:// URL (as opposed to file://) which will then activate the usage of the php and mysql applications behind xampp or whichever virtual host you are using.
