Forum: Accessibility
In reply to: accessible web hostingWhile there are hundreds of hosts out there most smaller companies will be resellers and they will rely on stock web interfaces the most common cpanel and Plesk.
These hosts will have a very similar experience and a quick Google it would seem both suffer from a plethora of accessibility issues. This is not to say that it would be insurmountable but may prove more complicated.
Not all hosts use these software, and others will have a custom control panel unfortunate I couldn’t find a nice resource with a list of major hosts and how their control panels fair for accessibility but it would make a very interesting read.
From my own experience working at 34SP.com who are a UK managed host we have clients using screen readers to navigate our control panel and have taken on board and made changes based on their feedback. Indeed even this morning a component was found to be confusing by a customer with a screen reader so is currently being relooked at. I suspect other companies with custom control panels do the same we are not unique.
The good news, once you get to the point where you have WordPress installed life gets a little easier inside WordPress itself.

In reply to: local site url issuethe site and home urls, should be full urls including http:// part
Forum: Networking WordPress
In reply to: About wordpress on 2 domainSo WordPress is designed to sit on one, domain, you can “sort” of get round this by hardcoding the siteurl and home url within your wp-config.php and set the hardcoded version based on the server hostname.
This will at least get the site loading, however a lot of things don’t just rely on the siteurl or home url but use it as a base and then store a full URL so really then you are going to need to be hunting down all those hardcoded urls and updating them on the fly.
All of this is possible but incredibly hacky.
So then the question is why does your CDN need a different domain? If you are proxying the whole domain through the CDN you can just use the same domain.

In reply to: how to redirect 404 to blog post?You can use a plugin such as redirection or simple 301 redirect both found in the WordPress.org plugin section.
Alternatively you can use your server if you have access to redirect if your use Apache this would be most likely through your .htaccess. Googling 301 redirect will bring back step by step examples.
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Multiple URLs to Single PageThere are several ways to do this, if you have access to your HTTP servers configs, or .htaccess file you can have the server redirect (googling 301 redirects will bring back how to do this for your platform) the URLs. This is the most efficient method, however it comes with a very small amount of rick, if you get it wrong you may cause your site to show an error.
A safer and easier way is to use a plugin, there are several good ones include redirection and simple 301 redirects. Both can be found in the plugins section.

Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Load Balancing and WordPress QuestionThis will be very much dependent specific setup but sounds like your sessions are getting out of sync on the two servers.
On your two WordPress servers, how is PHP managing it sessions? (hint you might want to consider even at the cost of performance using the db)
Also what is doing the load balancing, how is it configured?

In reply to: WordPress Permission problemIf you access just the domain name, does it bring back anything?
if thats the case it sounds like your apache perhaps doesn’t have the vhost pointing to the right folder.Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Cache plugins and PHP extension inclusionThe new relic PHP options will only work with PHP being run at the time the client visits the site. You don’t need to disable it you can run it alongside the javascript beacon.
In such a scenario you use the javascript beacon on your static assets (i.e the HTML pages) and the PHP extension will autmatically pick up bits in wp-admin or on pages with dynamic content that hit PHP.

In reply to: WordPress Password hash custom Login PHP?The passwords make use of the class-phpass.php inside /wp-includes/ folder while the wp_hash_password() is the function responsible for hashing the passwords so your first step will be to look at those.
