Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Plugins and Appearance links in WP Admin don't workThanks esmi for the suggestions. Unfortunately, neither of those solutions worked. The theme is set to twentythirteen, and now in order to display any other theme I had to rename the new theme folder to “twentythirteen” via FTP.
I reset the plugin folder via phpmyadmin and also tried the FTP method by adding “.hold”, neither solution worked though.
That leaves the following option:
“- re-uploading all files & folders – except the wp-content folder and wp-config.php & root .htaccess files – from a fresh download of WordPress. Make sure that you delete the old copies of files & folder before uploading the new ones.”
However, I want to mention again that I did not do a manual install of wordpress, it was installed via a script (I think called fantastico) provided by my host. As such, there are a few additional files that probably should not be removed, and I don’t want to mess anything up further than it already is.
Thanks again for any help!

In reply to: Plugins and Appearance links in WP Admin don't workI deleted the plugins folder and replaced it, again within wordpress I can’t view installed plugins. This did not resolve the issue.
I tried reverting to the default theme, again I can’t do this via WP admin, I had to rename the folder via FTP. The theme changes, but the issue persists where I cannot access themes or installed plugins.
I will try the last option soon. I also did not mention that I didn’t do a manual install of wordpress, I used some script that was offered to set up the database and everything automatically. This may be the cause of the issue, but I’m relatively new to all of this and don’t know much about it.
Any help is appreciated 🙂

In reply to: New Post FormattingThank to you both, I ultimately went with the plugin even if it’s standard to edit that stuff in the stylesheet. It’s just easier for me and makes more sense 🙂
The plugin seems helpful, so thanks.

In reply to: Security Issue?Eeek! Such a password would be exposed to anyone who hacks into the server.
If someone hack into the server you’ve probably got bigger issues…
That would be correct. You have just performed steps 3, 4, and 5 of the Famous 5-Minute Install routine. At this point, a reasonable assumption has to be made that your intent is to complete the installation. The only time it might become an issue is if you do exactly that which you have described, and then fail to complete the install process. But it makes no sense for that to be the case.
Fair enough, it wasn’t ever really an issue for me, I just wasn’t sure if this had been acknowledged (although I had a hard time imagining nobody noticing).

In reply to: Security Issue?Such as requiring a password in the wp-config file to be used as the default password to log into WordPress. That way only the person with access to the wp-config file can set the password.

In reply to: How do I create a "dynamic" link?Well I added the tag, and I have posted on the qtranslate forums. I’ve looked pretty thoroughly through the settings on qtranslate and feel there is no option to do what I want to do, although it does include a widget that can be added to the sidebar of each page. I’d much rather have the links in the navigation bar at the top though, I just need them to follow the format: mysite.com/[current page]/?lang=es?
