In reply to: Blog has ben disconnected!Lorenzo is correct, but I’ll clarify a bit.
A domain name is used to identify an IP address (sometimes more than one). so finskis.com is used to point a browser to the correct IP address (which is a string of numbers). The domain name has nothing to do with your actual content, but is way for browsers to find the site.
So, as long as your hosting is in place (where the files and database are actually located), everything should still be there. And there’s a good chance if you knew the IP address, you could still get to your website.
The bad thing about letting a domain expire is sometimes they get purchased by someone else very quickly.
So, you pay for a domain name, which is sort of like getting listed in the phone book.
You pay for a web host, which is where your website “lives” (I guess keeping with the analogy, it’s the actual phone inside your house).
And then you need to “connect” the two (as Lorenzo mentioned, it’s the DNS. It’s what associates a web address with and IP address).
You also want to make for certain that your site/data is being backed up. Your host may do it for you, or it can be done by anyone with access to your server (you may want to look for a WordPress person).

In reply to: Error on themeI just took a look and I’m not seeing that error. Was it on your home page or some other page on your site?

In reply to: MySQL query not working with wp_posts tableWith the information you’ve given, the query
SELECT * FROM wp_posts WHERE post_type = 'forum' AND post_title = 'Business Intelligence';looks perfectly valid.
I’m going to ask the obvious. Are you certain that PHPMyAdmin and your script are connected to the same database?
Also, do you get the same exact results when you use the simpler query?
SELECT * FROM wp_posts WHERE post_type = 'forum';Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: odd Rectangle in HeaderI used Firebug and first selected the gray box, which told me it was that div element that was creating it. Then I took out the style1 class from that bit of HTML and the gray box disappeared. So I don’t think it has to do with a Search form.
I can’t tell exactly where the HTML is getting generated as I’m just looking a few source in my browser, but the CSS is definitely in the file I posted.

In reply to: Text formatting and CategoriesLooks to me like you’ve created two separate pages and they’re formatted differently. You might check the page admin and see if you have a Contact Us at the top level and one below “category.” I’m guessing you don’t want the Contact Us page under category.

In reply to: odd Rectangle in HeaderThanks @trisham.
@midcoastvb – If you can’t or don’t want to update the php file, you can comment out that selector in the CSS file. It would probably be best if you could update the header, as something else may use style1. However, if you want to edit the CSS file, it can be found here:
http://69.195.124.61/~midcoat4/wp-content/plugins/tabber-tabs-widget/tabber.cssJust change:
.style1 { background: #D6D6D8; } .tabberlive.style1 { padding:15px 0 3px; }to
/* .style1 { background: #D6D6D8; } .tabberlive.style1 { padding:15px 0 3px; } */Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: odd Rectangle in HeaderLooks like it’s in your CSS.
Change
<div class="tabberlive style1">to
<div class="tabberlive">I only tested on Firefox on Mac, that eliminated the gray rectangle for me.

In reply to: What's the best way to redirect a single page for mobile devices?Equivalent Mobile Redirect does work for me, but it does throw a couple warnings if you have it in debug mode.
If WPTouch works, I’d definitely go with that.
As far as User Agent vs screen size, User Agent is the “old” way of doing it. With responsive design, it’s based more on screen size and the actual device doesn’t matter (as much).

In reply to: wp_mail() 3.6.1 not workingDo you check the return value from wp_mail()?
Also, you turn on debugging by adding these lines to wp-config.php:
@ini_set('display_errors',0); define( 'WP_DEBUG', true );As @esmi stated, nothing has changed with wp_mail() in WordPress 3.6.1.
Awesome, glad you got it figure out.
@rohitbhalara4 was right. Generally best to disable plugins and switch to a default theme first. I’ve seen multiple things cause this warning, but actually never a plugin!
Another thing to try:
Disable all your plugins and then change your permalink settings back to “Default.” (if it’s already set to Default, then change it to something else). Apparently sometimes permalink structure gets corrupted and cause this warning.
I think the PHP/PCRE versions you listed are fine.
Update:
In order for the line above to work, it most come after the call to wp-settings.php – for example:
/** Sets up WordPress vars and included files. */ require_once(ABSPATH . 'wp-settings.php'); error_reporting(0);It shouldn’t matter where you place it in wp-config.php.
