In reply to: Proper .htaccess file for 1&1 hostingThere is no standard .htaccess file for WP, what’s in it depends on your settings.
How are your permalinks configured in your Wp -> Settings -> Permalinks area?
Any more information on what you were doing would help. Was it just the .htaccess file you toyed with? Do you know which code you changed?
The more info you can provide, the better.

In reply to: Need to direct all my posts to a certain pageHi pankajtandon. Maybe I’m misunderstanding what you’re trying to do, but when your blog authors write and publish a post, it should only show in your blog area, not on your static pages. This is done by WordPress by default.
As for your second question, there might be a plugin out there which makes use of tags which might work. Don’t know any off the top of my head but that might be an idea.

In reply to: How to allow comments on PAGES?That’s right. Make sure you have that in your page.php file. You might need to add a div tag. So your code to paste in might look like this:
<div id="comments"> <?php comments_template(); ?> </div>You probably have that code in your single post file (single.php). You can do a copy and search for the code I did above in that file and see how it’s displayed in that file. Then simply copy and paste it into your page.php near the bottom.

In reply to: How do I link my WP Forums Avatar to my site?Hi samboll.
When I log in and head over to my profile and click “Edit”, I have filled in my email address, web address, occupation, etc.
Still no link from avatar.
Any ideas?

In reply to: RSS feed from blogger to WordPressOk, the problem is most likely then with your Feedburner configuration.
Log into Feedburner and click on your feed. Near the top you should see “Edit Feed Details…”
Click that and where it says “Original Feed”, type in your blog’s original feed. It will probably be something like this:
http://athriftymom.com/feed/atom/
Save your Feed Details and let’s see if that works. Good luck.

In reply to: RSS feed from blogger to WordPressPut it after the # End wordpress
In other words, go to the bottom of that file and paste it in at the bottom underneath everything else.

In reply to: integrating WordPress on my websiteAre you trying to create a static home page and then have your blog in the /blog directory?
Here’s a video on how to create a static home page.
Then what you’d do is for your other pages (About Us, Contact Us, Services, etc.), you’d make those pages (as opposed to posts).

Also, WordPress.org has the instructions here.

In reply to: RSS feed from blogger to WordPressNo worries.
It should be somewhere in your root html directory. It will say .htaccess.
Can you find it there?

In reply to: Permalink trouble.what hosting company do you use?
Sometimes you have to wait until the top of the hour for your Permalink to take effect. Until then, your site might be broken.
It’s 8:45pm right now were I am. Wait until 9pm and see if it fixes itself.

In reply to: RSS feed from blogger to WordPressLog into your web hosting control panel and then open your .htaccess file with your control panel’s editor.
Paste in this code and click save:
# Redirect Content Feeds to Feedburner <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine on RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} !FeedBurner [NC] RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} !FeedValidator [NC] RewriteRule ^feed/?([_0-9a-z-]+)?/?$ http://feeds2.feedburner.com/AThriftyMom [R=302,NC,L] </IfModule>Do a test and see if it works.

In reply to: Starting WordPressTo find the screen where you can enter in your username and password, go to yoursite.com/wp-admin if your blog is in your root directory.
If your blog is in a subdirectory (i.e. /blog), then head over to yoursite.com/blog/wp-admin

In reply to: RSS feed from blogger to WordPressSorry, I’m a bit confused. When I subscribe to your RSS it seems to be working fine. I see your articles. Is it just the email subscription that’s not working?
