In reply to: How to combine Article and Comment RSS feeds into one?Funny story … decided to look into this issue again, did a Google search, and the best-sounding result was … this! My own post, asking the question itself. Anyone have any ideas on this one yet?

In reply to: How to combine Article and Comment RSS feeds into one?Unfortunately, the WP instance is on a private intranet site that can’t be reached by the online tools available to do this (like Yahoo Pipes), so I need it to work from within WordPress.
Anyone else?
Thank you for responding! 🙂
There’s nothing in the htaccess file other than the auth stuff now. The problem is that I cannot figure out a way to allow RSS feed requests through without authentication.
Several sources I’ve found indicated that you could not do a “not match” in a Files or FilesMatch directive, in order to say “if it does not match an RSS request, authenticate”. Add to this the apparent case that the RSS requests are a just querystring on an index.php request (I *can’t* just globally deal with “index.html”) and I’m even more confused.

In reply to: Htaccess Breaks Site@saurus – I have no .htaccess file at all. The one that is created when I select anything but the first option on the Permalinks options page results in an instant HTTP 500 error. Deleting the created .htaccess file returns the site back to health, but simply going back to the Permalinks options page (without saving or changing anything) results in the .htaccess file being re-created and sending the site back into HTTP 500 errors.
I was able to get through this by (a) going to the Permalinks options page, (b) setting it back to the first option, (c) submitting the page (which results in a 500 error caused by the .htaccess file created in step a), (d) deleting the .htaccess file in another window/app, then (e) refreshing the page with the 500 error, which resubmits the form without an .htaccess file present. This has happened twice to me now, both on fresh installs.
I cannot explain how thousands of sites work fine if they have changed the Permalinks options. I can simply relate what is happening to me and my site.
Any *helpful* thoughts?

In reply to: Htaccess Breaks SiteI am having this exact same problem… it’s likely a bug. I have things working now so I’m a bit hesitant re-break it in order to document and report the problem. Can anyone else shed any light on this?

In reply to: My blog has disappeared(andrewharden) There’s nothing you need on your computer to use wordpress.* other than a web browser. The messages you saw (see? still?) on wordpress.com are for *them*, not *us*.

In reply to: My blog has disappeared(andrewharden) Nope, not affected. Different sites, different authentication. “wordpress.org” != “wordpress.com”

In reply to: My blog has disappearedYeah… even the main http://wordpress.com site is showing the “install.php” link. Hold tight… (though one would have thunk they’d put up a banner page and a redirect saying “we’re busy” or something…)
