Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: Work for Hire–Need help with theme switcherIssue resolved. For people’s info, you may need to change “siteurl” in ryan’s plugin file to the domain name of your site (no www or http, just domainname.com). That resolved my issues. Moshu helped lead me there 🙂
Here’s an example of a line in Ryan’s file that I modified:
$urlinfo = parse_url(get_settings(‘siteurl’));
changed to:
$urlinfo = parse_url(get_settings(‘domainname.com’));
(Obviously, put in your real domain name and not domainname.com 🙂 )
Forum: Plugins
In reply to: Ryan’s Theme SwitcherI’ve tried reading through this thread and have a vague idea of what might be going on to affect the site I’m developing.
My project has wordpress located on domainname.com/wordpress but I’ve changed the WP header to make it show up at domainname.com
However, I’ve installed Ryan’s themeswitcher, and while it switches to another theme’s index file just fine, when you try to go to the comments for that theme, it reverts to the active/default theme.
I have a feeling I have to change something in a header somewhere 🙂 And this is where I get lost and pray someone can help. I like Ryan’s theme switcher and don’t want to have to go to making a whole cookieset file instead. Any suggestions?
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: A zero displaying in the ArchivesI thought I’d post my solution to this issue in case it helps anyone.
I am a phpmyadmin novice…so I was stupid and dropped some stuff and screwed the whole works up. So I deleted WP install and the DB and tried a new install. I noticed the problem was still there.
The new install, as was the prior one, was from a Fantastico automated install. So I deleted my new install and DB, started over, and this time I did the install myself.
I don’t know why installing from Fantastico caused issues, but when I did a manual install myself, it was completely clean. So, just a caveat for people installing from Fantastico.

In reply to: national upgrading disasterhey manzabar,
First, sorry for the MT references. That was complete stupid typing on my part. I meant WP. :/
Someone helped me out a lot with this, so I got it resolved…thank you for help with it, though!Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: national upgrading disasterthat helps. It sounds like you are saying that the DATABASE doesn’t care that I have two separate directories with two different wp installatiosn in them. Because when I upgraded, it upgraded the database, and the OLD version of WP, which is in the blog directory, went to the database and got confused.
That sounds to me like what you are saying. Is that correct?
If it is, I think what I will do is also ‘install’ to the blog directory with that hopes that it will fix this. Or i could remove everything completely (including the databases) and just install the latest version from scratch. what do you recommend?
and thank you for your help 🙂Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: national upgrading disasterto clarify a bit further: both directories (wp AND blog) have their own installation of MT in them.
WHen I upgraded, I upgraded ONLY to my wp directory. The “blog” directory had the old version of wordpress still in it. I can see where, me naming that other directory wp, probably threw you off. ANyway, there’s wordpress in both directories, but it seems the one named wp is hungry or something.Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: national upgrading disasterHey, sorry to confuse 🙂
First, to summarize:
my domain is sea-glass.org
my BLOG is located at sea-glass.org/blog
my TEST mt directory is sea-glass.org/wp
I use that test directory before I put it in the blog directory. But now it’s like the test/wp directory has taken over 😉
I can ONLY access my options within the sea-glass.org/wp directory, and the URI in that for both WordPress and blog address say: sea-glass.org/wp
Now, if I could get into the options/admin/whatever for my sea-glass.org/blog directory, I’d be able to see the URI settings for that, but I can’t. Won’t let me login to that anymore, but if I login to sea-glass.org/wp and post something, it shows UP on sea-glass.org/blog.
Make sense now?
I know, I’m confused, too.
