In reply to: robots.txt“too bad you dont understand that, and/or dont read links that provide explanations. (tech support, lemme guess, level one)”
Damn whooami! Chill out! Flying off the handle like that is one of the main reasons why people (like myself) choose NOT to contribute to free tech support. Ridiculed when we’re only trying to help? If I was incorrect with what I had said, then my bad, but that gives you no reason, nor right to react and comment the way you did! Seriously, how many forums to you actively participate in?
That all said, I was merely offering valid input to people that are either new to web development or could possibly (for some reason) not realize something very important. Correct me if I’m wrong, but what I’ve read about the robots.txt file is that unless access to your robots.txt is password protected, when you list directories in your robots.txt file, you are exposing these directories to the public. In other words, if you do not want your average person finding out about a directory, then be sure to take extra precautions to prevent access to these directories.
FYI, I’m not a web developer, nor am I “level 1” tech support, so keep your guessing cuz I find it quite humerous:)

In reply to: Google Sitemaps Error: Permission deniedAwesome! I got it fixed:

It did end up being a setting that my host had to make.
Thank you for your help

In reply to: Google Sitemaps Error: Permission deniedI checked my file and folder permissions, and all of the files and folders have 666. I’ve also logged onto our host’s admin panel and it states the same:(

In reply to: robots.txtBe careful with what you put in your Robots.txt file though. For instance, whooami, I don’t know if you realized it or not, but you exposed your downloads URL in your Robots.txt file:
http://www.village-idiot.org/file-downloads/
Too bad you didn’t have any nice porn:(

In reply to: Lost Feed, Categories, and Permalinks after 2.0.4 to 2.0.5 upgradeI figured it out! I must have accidentally deleted the php.ini file in my root containing the following two lines:
cgi.fix_pathinfo = 1
cgi.force_redirect = 0FYI, for anyone who reads this, you can find this information at the following page:

In reply to: Lost Feed, Categories, and Permalinks after 2.0.4 to 2.0.5 upgradeThanks, I didn’t think to click on the default permalink that you posted above:( I didn’t know that was working.
I checked my host’s database via phpMyAdmin to see if the links are the correct GUID’s and they are. All the GUID’s are the links with my custom permalink structure…
What could possibly be causing this problem? Is there some file in the new update that may have broken the connection between the links and the database or something?

In reply to: Lost Feed, Categories, and Permalinks after 2.0.4 to 2.0.5 upgradeI checked my Custom Structure (under Customize Permalink Structure) and it hasn’t changed from what I had before the upgrade:
/index.php/archives/%year%/%monthnum%/%day%/%postname%/
With the Category Base being:
/index.php/category
Sorry for my ignorance, but what do you mean by:
“however, the default permalink structure shows the page:
http://blog.trossenrobotics.com/index.php/?m=200611″BTW, I did try to delete the “/index.php/” on both the Category and Custom Structure, and refreshed my blog page, and that didn’t work, so I changed it back to the way it was:( Is this what you mean by resetting the permalink structure?

In reply to: Lost Feed, Categories, and Permalinks after 2.0.4 to 2.0.5 upgradeI didn’t have a .htaccess file before, at least not that I remember… I backed up all of my files though before the upgrade, so if I had the .htaccess file before, it is in that folder. Where is .htaccess located? I ran a search for the string, “htaccess” in the folder that contains all my backup files and never came up with anything.
Would not having this file generate all the “Page Not Found” errors I get?
Anybody? I could really use some assistance on this one…
