Dashboard Links

  • My blog I use for work: https://esolers.org/blog/

    I recently posted this message about problems after I upgraded through my Yahoo Small Business domain interface: https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/381956?replies=1#post-1457624

    The people at Yahoo, after some hard work, fixed it so I can log into the admin section, but the dashboard is screwy and barely functional.

    The big problem, however, is that I can’t use any links on the blog – for categories, comments, previous posts, and so on. BIG PROBLEM for me.

    I get this error message:

    The page isn’t redirecting properly

    Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete.

    I am a teacher. I use the comments section much for peer feedback and other things. I also need my students to have the ability to use the categories section and access previous posts — because the blog is a key feature of my classes.

    But —- I don’t have time to search around and try to fix this on my own……….I’m working 50-60 hours a week 7 days a week….

    I need a trouble-shooter —- but I believe I’ve about exhausted the help I can get from Yahoo. I’ve used both phone and email and they have helped get me into the admin panel – which I needed….

    ….but now they are reminding me (again and again) how WordPress is a third party tool they kindly offer through the Small Business package —- and they keep giving me links to “do it yourself” WordPress help sections —- which I don’t have the time to utilize.

    I need a life preserver – not a guide to how to develop my own better water tredding techniques!!!

    The blog is https://esolers.org/blog/

    Help, please, anybody….

  • I suggest getting a real host – yahoo has antique servers and support stinks
    some options

    1. Try adding this line to your wp-config.php file:
define('WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '64M');

2. If you have access to your PHP.ini file, change the line in PHP.ini
If your line shows 32M try 64M:
memory_limit = 64M ; Maximum amount of memory a script may consume (64MB)

3. If you don't have access to PHP.ini try adding this to an .htaccess file:
php_value memory_limit 64M

4. Talk to your host.

    What are some good alternative domain servers that also include WordPress?

    I’m ready to jump ship.

    — I tried suggestions #1:

    When I looked at the current wp-config.php file in on my domain, it was completely blank (I looked using wordpad).

    So, I looked at the backup copy of it I saved when I backed up the old blog before upgrading – and I added the line suggested in #1 and uploaded it.

    When I checked the blog, I got a completely blank page.

    So, I deleted that config file and uploaded the backup copy of the latest version I had just changed (the one that showed no script in wordpad) and I still got a blank screen.

    I’ve emailed Yahoo again.

    What I’m going to do now is try to delete all the wp content and upload the saved files of the old version to see if I can get to the beginning.

    I am also going to hunt for an alternative host pronto, because a blog feature and website is vital to what I do for work…..

    —-sigh—-
