I can’t believe that the solution is so simple, or that I didn’t notice it! * I use CuteFTP, and the whole time I was investigating this issue I had both / include/ files sitting next to each other – and I never noticed it was missing on the server side!!! * It takes an outsider sometimes to notice something so obvious!

The procedure is perfectly logical, and it works. Don’t know why it’s not somewhere on WordPress. I’m sure other people must need to do this also. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Getting WSOD & DEBUG Gives No Errors](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/getting-wsod-debug-gives-no-errors/) * Thread Starter [prof611](https://wordpress.org/support/users/prof611/) * (@prof611) * [7 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/getting-wsod-debug-gives-no-errors/#post-10572010) * Sorry I took so long to get back to you. There were no entries in the error log at all. * I found out what was going on: When I uploaded the WordPress files to the server, my CuteFTP failed to load some of the files at the end of two of the folders. I went back and uploaded the three folders again – this time making sure they all got transferred. Then when I tried Step 5 again, it worked fine. * Sorry to bother you, James – it was just a stupid mistake – not a bug at all! * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Getting WSOD & DEBUG Gives No Errors](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/getting-wsod-debug-gives-no-errors/) * Thread Starter [prof611](https://wordpress.org/support/users/prof611/) * (@prof611) * [7 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/getting-wsod-debug-gives-no-errors/#post-10569235) * Yes it does. It’s called Quick Installer. I didn’t want to use it, since it requires registering. I don’t want to have to become a member of a new organization in order to do something I should be able to do by hand. And I have installed WordPress many times before for my other blogs. I want to get to the bottom of this problem, not hack my way around it! * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Getting WSOD & DEBUG Gives No Errors](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/getting-wsod-debug-gives-no-errors/) * Thread Starter [prof611](https://wordpress.org/support/users/prof611/) * (@prof611) * [7 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/getting-wsod-debug-gives-no-errors/#post-10569194) * Thanks for your help. However, I DID do it manually. I filled in wp-config.php by hand, and then put simpleislandweddings.org into the address bar –> WSOD! * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Getting WSOD & DEBUG Gives No Errors](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/getting-wsod-debug-gives-no-errors/) * Thread Starter [prof611](https://wordpress.org/support/users/prof611/) * (@prof611) * [7 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/getting-wsod-debug-gives-no-errors/#post-10569111) * HostGator; PHP 5.4 * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Pinterest RSS Widget] Load the plugin script asynchronously](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/load-the-plugin-script-asynchronously/) * Thread Starter [prof611](https://wordpress.org/support/users/prof611/) * (@prof611) * [9 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/load-the-plugin-script-asynchronously/#post-7563275) * I did some more research, and found that this and other jquery scripits are added to the section by WordPress. Also found a plugin that will move them all to the footer: Scripts to Footer.

This occurs whenever the permalink is anything other than the default, “/?p=xxx”. * This is causing all external links to webpages on my blog to be redirected to the home page. It must be disconcerting for my visitors to click this link in Google search: tanning17.tropicalhouseplants.net/how-to-tan-armpits/ , and end up on the tanning17 homepage, with the offending link still visible in the Address Bar. What do they do now?

I went to Google Webmaster Tools, and fetched a page on the blog, [http://tanning17.tropicalhouseplants.net/tanning-news-snippets/](http://tanning17.tropicalhouseplants.net/tanning-news-snippets/). Here is the error: * > Downloaded HTTP response: > 1 HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently 2 Server: nginx/ > 1.6.1 3 Date: Wed, 03 Sep 2014 04:14:42 GMT 4 Content-Type: text/html 5 Content- > Length: 0 6 Connection: keep-alive 7 Location: [http://tanning17.tropicalhouseplants.net/tanning-news-snippets/](http://tanning17.tropicalhouseplants.net/tanning-news-snippets/) * Somehow, the page has been redirected to itself, obviously causing an endless loop. * This clearly shows what is happening.

It came to me in a dream! It’s not a bug that anyone else will ever have, but it’s solution demonstrates a debugging principle that I was ignoring. So it may be applicable to others in a general sense. * The debugging principle: if a script works on page 1, but not on page 2, then there must be something on page 2 that’s interfering with the script. * In my case, the interfering script was the submitForm script. It was being used only on the Home page. So I deleted it, and the posts using the question & answer format worked properly. ( Now I have to rewrite the deleted script, so it doesn’t cause any interference – but that’s another problem altogether. ) * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Plugin: WordPress SEO by Yoast] Error Loading Stylesheet](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wordpress-seo-by-yoast-error-loading-stylesheet/) * Thread Starter [prof611](https://wordpress.org/support/users/prof611/) * (@prof611) * [11 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wordpress-seo-by-yoast-error-loading-stylesheet/#post-5104769) * I discovered where the plugin was getting the defunct URL used in the error message. It was in the database, so I corrected all four instances.

The only thing I could see to try was to remove , which didn’t change anything. The only other idea that came to me was to try reverting to an earlier version of WordPress. However, I didn’t do it because I have many other blogs that use the latest version, and they’re all working fine. * I think the key to what caused this whole thing is that I bypassed the popup that requested me to login again. That’s the only thing that I did that I didn’t do with my other blogs.

I tried to do what you just suggested, but it had already been done.
