Any news on this issue?

Thanks for replying.
Click Counter is listed as one of the working with WP 2.0 plugins on the wordpress.org update pages. However it seems as if I am not the only one having problems with WP 2.0 and go.php .

Viper007Bond, have you also updated your wp-blog-header.php in blogroot?

If I uncomment the first require() statement in go.php thinks work fine. (However counting stops for obvious reasons).

Maybe it’s a specific combination of php/webserver settings which break it.

Tried to nail it down further. It now appears that things no longer work due to changes in the

wp-blog-header.php

file.

If I uncomment the require('./wp-blog-header.php');line in the go.php (and obviously also the calls to wp_ozh_click_increment()) everything works fine.

Any help is greatly appreciated!

It appears to me that the $is_IIS variable seems to be no longer available in WordPress 2.0. I have altered the go.php script as follows and it seems to work again:

if ($is_IIS) {
header(“Refresh: 0;url=$url”);
} else {
header(“Refresh: 0;url=$url”);
// header(“Location: $url”);
}`

So effectively I put the “IIS way” of redirecting a browser (Refresh: 0; url=$url) into the else branch of the $is_IIS condition.

Can anybody confirm similar observations? The Click Counter plugin is listed as one which should work seamlessly with WP 2.0 though…

I do see the permalinks. They seem to be correct. However clicking them I end up on a “This page cannot be found” error.

As an example for one of the generated links here is the URL:

http://www.rottmann.net/blog/index.php/2006/01/02/updated-blog-to-version-20/

So the URLs get updated however once I submit this URL it seems as if there is no redirect. Instead the browser tries to load the physical page at the address which – obviously – is not there.

I am close to giving up and migrating to MovableType. I changed the .htaccess file as you’ve posted. Issue remains. The key thing is that WordPress 2.0 ***never adds any rewrite rules to .htaccess***. Do you have any idea why? Isn’t it supposed to add a list of rewrite rules to .htaccess when I change the permalinks options?

Yes. Both.
The file can be fully accessed. As I have stated in my initial post: WordPress’ built-in file editor can successfully edit the .htaccess file. A clear indication that the 777 access rights work fine.

Non of the settings in Options > Permalinks work.

Any idea?

Just for clarification:

I believe my WordPress install does not process any posts when I update the permalinks structure. As stated below

– write access to .htaccess is positive and checked (admin panels file editor can edit and [b]save[/b] changes

– mod_rewrite works (manually added rewrite rules work like a charm)

– WP finds the correct .htaccess file (if I change write permissions to read-only and update permalinks strcuture, I do get the “cannot write” message in admin panel — but no code to manually copy into .htaccess file)

So I guess somehow WP “thinks” it does not need to update any rewrite rules

Any hints how to troubleshoot this? Are there any flags in any tables which might need to be reset?

Best regards
