* also with BP I can not edit profile as page faisl to display but eveythign else seems cool * u **rock** man ( wish i did lol ) * cheers man * Forum: [Networking WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/multisite/) In reply to: [Can't see posts in new blogs](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-see-posts-in-new-blogs/) * [spacekad](https://wordpress.org/support/users/spacekad/) * (@spacekad) * [15 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-see-posts-in-new-blogs/page/2/#post-1715056) * hey ppl : * I would like you to privide me with an award for the dumbest person on mother earth !!!! * I did not refersh safari each time i made chages – * just open it with firefox and it all working * god dam – i am stupid man LOL * but nonehteless you two are both legends for help man * serious respect and thanx * mr stupid * lol * Forum: [Networking WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/multisite/) In reply to: [Can't see posts in new blogs](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-see-posts-in-new-blogs/) * [spacekad](https://wordpress.org/support/users/spacekad/) * (@spacekad) * [15 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-see-posts-in-new-blogs/page/2/#post-1715051) * hi andrea – i have … * ” .htacess.rtf ” * if i take down the final exstension of rtf then it cerates internal server error on AL 100 % pages , whereas b4 it only created erro displaying pages i have created, things like home work . * i think might be an issue with the server allowing .htacesss – i running apache and need to sort out the overide setting i think as this is hgettign me nowhere fast ! * Forum: [Networking WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/multisite/) In reply to: [Can't see posts in new blogs](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-see-posts-in-new-blogs/) * [spacekad](https://wordpress.org/support/users/spacekad/) * (@spacekad) * [15 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-see-posts-in-new-blogs/page/2/#post-1715048) * ps _ this has maxed my brain out and i now want to die LOL * any help would be awesome * Forum: [Networking WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/multisite/) In reply to: [Can't see posts in new blogs](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-see-posts-in-new-blogs/) * [spacekad](https://wordpress.org/support/users/spacekad/) * (@spacekad) * [15 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cant-see-posts-in-new-blogs/page/2/#post-1715047) * hi guys : * i have wp + bp in a sub dir ( mydomain/1) * put the install there , then added bp to plugins , then changed as it asked for the permalinks from default another – say numeric for example , then as it told me to do , changed the htacess file – since that stage any page will not display. * I had no htacess file to start with , so i opened up text edit ( I on mac ) and copy pasted what it generated in my dashbord , nothign else , ftp’d that up and then messed round with the permission million of times till nwo when i totally mxed otu and cant work out why it will nto display anythign ?
