    bumping my old thread – I went on vacation. unfortunately, I didn’t get any bright ideas.

    disabling the firewall didn’t work.

    the firefox download didn’t work.

    she’s stuck in an endless loop of bouncing back to the login page.

    I’ve had her try in Firefox and IE, and the result is the same in both browsers.

    Any other suggestions I can throw at her?

    Thanks so much!

    she did, and that didn’t make a difference.

    I’m going to have her download the Firefox referrer plugin, and try that – and then we’ll disable it again and try it that way.

    ok – I’ll try disabling the plugins on her site for now, and if not I’ll have her download the Firefox extension.

    The plugins I’m running are
    Akismet
    Fold page list
    Search pages
    static front pages
    and
    wordpress database backup.

    Are any of those known issues?

    I really appreciate you guys taking time to help me troubleshoot this.

    I’ve been googling Mcafee (what she has for a firewall) and sending her the instructions to allow referrers.

    She doesn’t see anything in her control panel that matches the instructions!

    And I don’t run Mcafee, so I’m kind of in the dark there.

    it’s leaving wordpress pass and wordpress user, both followed by a string of numbers.

    I’m still trying to talk her through finding the referrers…

    oh – and we’ve checked her firewall security settings too.

    nothing is working. πŸ™

    yep – I’m on the phone with her right now.

    She’s got java and javascript enabled.

    and she’s paid up πŸ˜‰

    ok – since she’s cleared her cookies and rebooted, it keeps bouncing her back to the login page – instantly.

    She’s aware that it is all case-sensitive – I even emailed her both so she could copy/paste them.

    I’m not sure this is actually a wordpress issue, as I can log into the dashboard fine.

    But if I’m missing something, I’d appreciate you guys letting me know!

    Thanks…

    thanks – that’s not the answer I wanted, but it was the answer I was afraid I would get after searching all the plugins, forums, etc.

    I don’t mind *too* badly doing it this way – but I’m switching this site to WP so my friend can maintain it herself.

    I suppose I’ll set up that series of pages for her, then she can do the rest.

    thanks again!

    sorry – I guess I should have been more clear

    I guess I’m just trying to figure out how to generat them when I build the page.

    Right now, I’m having to build a page, upload it, then get the page id, then go back in and fix my links.

    If I knew what the page ID was I could do it all at once.

    I’m a newbie to this, in case you couldn’t tell πŸ˜‰

    Thanks!

    can you use a <br /> in there?

    I’ve no idea if that’s valid code, but it’s what I do. πŸ˜‰

    I figured it out – I can’t link images from within the themes image folder.

    Not sure why…?

    But when I created a new img folder within my wp folder, outside of the themes, it worked.
