• I installed the ablum FAlbum plugin on my WordPress blog–https://www.patrickandraquel.com–yesterday afternoon and had it working smashingly until I made a slight configuration change. This apparently jacked things up a little bit and now I can’t get to my blog…I’m getting an Internal Server Error.

    I initially contacted my hosting service’s tech support and they are telling me it’s my .htaccess file. This seems to make sense, and leads me to my question:

    Can I use the .htaccess file from another blog to fix the problem?

    By the way, I just checked the .htaccess file and it has the following in it (I’m sure this has something to do with the error that I was receiving):

    # BEGIN FAlbum
    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteRule ^?page_id=28/?([^/]*)?/?([^/]*)?/?([^/]*)?/?([^/]*)?/?([^/]*)?/?([^/]*)?/?([^/]*)?/?([^/]*)?/?$ /wp-content/plugins/falbum/wp/album.php?$1=$2&$3=$4&$5=$6&$7=$8 [QSA,L]
    </IfModule>
    # END FAlbum

    Can I just delete this information or does there need to be something else in there? For the record, I have removed the FAlbum plugin altogether from the wp-content directory.

    I’m 85% sure you can just delete that part of .htaccess and reupload it

    Keep a back-up copy of that old htaccess, and there’s no harm done in trying a different htaccess

    Yep…that did it. Thanks!

    now you just need to diagnose whether FAlbum could be useful to you by fixing whatever it did wrong in that htaccess

    I kind of suspect it might work just by fixing, for example if there should be a subfolder before “/wp-content/plugins/falbum/wp/album.php”
