If you just changed it, you’ll probably have to wait a bit. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [WordPress Changing URL Error](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wordpress-changing-url-error/) * [Scriptrunner (Doug Sparling)](https://wordpress.org/support/users/scriptrunner/) * (@scriptrunner) * [12 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wordpress-changing-url-error/#post-4173744) * Check out the Codex: * [Changing The Site URL](http://codex.wordpress.org/Changing_The_Site_URL) * [Moving WordPress](http://codex.wordpress.org/Moving_WordPress) * If you have moved changed your WordPress install directory name from “wordpress” to “blog,” you’ll need to update * `siteurl` to be `http://www.mysite/blog` * and * `home` to be whatever you want the home page URL to be, probably either `http:// www.mysite/blog` or `http://www.mysite`. * I generally use the wp-login.php trick (see [Moving WordPress](http://codex.wordpress.org/Moving_WordPress)) so I don’t have to mess with the database. But either way is fine. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Proper Category and Tag base 301 redirection](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/proper-category-and-tag-base-301-redirection/) * [Scriptrunner (Doug Sparling)](https://wordpress.org/support/users/scriptrunner/) * (@scriptrunner) * [12 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/proper-category-and-tag-base-301-redirection/#post-4166397) * I found the easiest way to to this is to use the WordPress [Redirection](http://wordpress.org/plugins/redirection/) plugin. * I added a new redirection for tag (from default “tag” to new “tag2”): * ``` Source URL: ^/tag/([a-z0-9_-]+)/$ Match: URL only Action: Redirect to URL Regex: on Target URL: /tag2/{$1}/ ``` * You could also use the more common * Source URL: ^/tag/(.*)/$ * if [a-z0-9_-] is too limiting. * Obviously change “tag2” with your new tag base. Should work for categories as well. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Best Way to Redirect 301](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/best-way-to-redirect-301/) * [Scriptrunner (Doug Sparling)](https://wordpress.org/support/users/scriptrunner/) * (@scriptrunner) * [12 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/best-way-to-redirect-301/#post-4172884) * Did you remove this line? * `Redirect 301 / http://www.new-site.com/` * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Can't upload swf files to wordpress anymore.](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-upload-swf-files-to-wordpress-anymore/) * [Scriptrunner (Doug Sparling)](https://wordpress.org/support/users/scriptrunner/) * (@scriptrunner) * [12 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-upload-swf-files-to-wordpress-anymore/#post-4172883) * The sample code in the previous post is incorrect. It replaces all other mime types with only swf and exe. It needs to add the missing types to the existing allowed mime types: * ``` function demo($mimes) { if ( function_exists( 'current_user_can' ) ) $unfiltered = $user ? user_can( $user, 'unfiltered_html' ) : current_user_can( 'unfiltered_html' ); if ( !empty( $unfiltered ) ) { $mimes['swf'] = 'application/x-shockwave-flash'; } return $mimes; } add_filter('upload_mimes','demo'); ``` * I left out “exe” because that wasn’t asked for and I wouldn’t allow it normally. If you want that as well, just add this line: * ``` $mimes['exe'] = 'application/x-msdownload'; ``` * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Best Way to Redirect 301](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/best-way-to-redirect-301/) * [Scriptrunner (Doug Sparling)](https://wordpress.org/support/users/scriptrunner/) * (@scriptrunner) * [12 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/best-way-to-redirect-301/#post-4172880) * No, but you should be able to use this (to the top of .htaccess file) if the page names and directory structure are identical, with the only difference being the domain name: * ``` RewriteEngine On # Redirect Entire Site to New Domain RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^olddomain.com$ [OR] RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://newdomain.com/$1 [R=301,L] ``` * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Best Way to Redirect 301](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/best-way-to-redirect-301/) * [Scriptrunner (Doug Sparling)](https://wordpress.org/support/users/scriptrunner/) * (@scriptrunner) * [12 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/best-way-to-redirect-301/#post-4172876) * It’ll depend on what web server your old site is using, but the easiest way to find out is to create a file: * `.htaccess` * and put it in the root of your web directory (on your old server). * Just add this one line (replacing “new-site” with the domain of your actual new site): * ``` Redirect 301 / http://www.new-site.com/ ``` * You can FTP the file up to your old server if need be, but check if your old server already has an .htaccess file (since it starts with a dot, it might be hidden from view). * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Can't modify Header Woe's](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-modify-header-woes/) * [Scriptrunner (Doug Sparling)](https://wordpress.org/support/users/scriptrunner/) * (@scriptrunner) * [12 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-modify-header-woes/#post-4172469) * You can alway try the [Safe Mode](http://wordpress.org/plugins/safe-mode/) plugin, but I think we’re pretty sure it’s a theme issue. But this would at least guarantee it’s the theme or a plugin (it deactivates plugins and changes to a default theme, if one is available, on a per page request basis). * Actually changing the theme temporarily and leaving plugins as is would at least tell you for certain that it’s the theme. If theme is not being maintained, it’s highly likely that it’s the problem. I’d also worry about security at some point if it’s not being updated. (and of course WordPress core and plugins need to be kept up to date) * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Best Way to Redirect 301](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/best-way-to-redirect-301/) * [Scriptrunner (Doug Sparling)](https://wordpress.org/support/users/scriptrunner/) * (@scriptrunner) * [12 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/best-way-to-redirect-301/#post-4172867) * You need to set redirects or rewrites in the .htaccess of your old site. * [301 .htaccess Redirect](http://ndesign-studio.com/blog/301-htaccess-redirect) * [How do I redirect my site using a .htaccess file?](https://kb.mediatemple.net/questions/242/How+do+I+redirect+my+site+using+a+.htaccess+file%3F) * [301 Redirects](http://css-tricks.com/snippets/htaccess/301-redirects/) * [Htaccess Redirect 301 Guide For SEO’s](http://www.lionseo.com/blog/htaccess-redirect-301/) * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [database repair](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/database-repair-12/) * [Scriptrunner (Doug Sparling)](https://wordpress.org/support/users/scriptrunner/) * (@scriptrunner) * [12 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/database-repair-12/#post-4172842) * Generally that means your tables are corrupted. * See [Rebuilding or Repairing Tables or Indexes](http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/rebuilding-tables.html) * Restoring from backup may work as well. * Before attempting a repair, make a backup first. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Can't modify Header Woe's](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-modify-header-woes/) * [Scriptrunner (Doug Sparling)](https://wordpress.org/support/users/scriptrunner/) * (@scriptrunner) * [12 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-modify-header-woes/#post-4172458) * Have you tried switching to a default WordPress theme? If the error goes away at least then you would know it’s definitely a problem with the theme. If that doesn’t work, try disabling all your plugins as well. It could be possible something is trying to set a header (often it’s setting a cookie) after the headers have been sent but during output of HTML. * You could comment our line 2284, but it may not actually be the cause of the problem, especially if it’s not a white space issue. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Can't modify Header Woe's](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-modify-header-woes/) * [Scriptrunner (Doug Sparling)](https://wordpress.org/support/users/scriptrunner/) * (@scriptrunner) * [12 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-modify-header-woes/#post-4172426) * When you say there’s no space between the two I assume you mean the line with the if statement and the final line with the closing tag. If so, it’s fine to have space in between, there just can’t be any space after the closing ‘?>’ on the final line. * This is the most normal culprit, though certainly not the only one. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Limit RSS Feeds to s Specific Number of Words](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/limit-rss-feeds-to-s-specific-number-of-words/) * [Scriptrunner (Doug Sparling)](https://wordpress.org/support/users/scriptrunner/) * (@scriptrunner) * [12 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/limit-rss-feeds-to-s-specific-number-of-words/#post-4172423) * It can go anywhere in the theme’s functions.php as long as it’s not inside any other functions in the file. I generally just put it near the top above the other code.
