Pages not found after moving to a new directory and back…

Have you tried following these instructions: https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Giving_WordPress_Its_Own_Directory

It did absolutely nothing for me… and now my homepage takes forever and a day to load, while the links still do not work. The admin page works fine, unless I try and view a link/homepage.

a link to the site would help

Sorry. ??

I’m thinking that exporting and reinstalling wordpress in the root directory might just be the easiest option.

this really bites.

Hi,

Also refer this article:

https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Changing_The_Site_URL

And reset your permalink from wordpress admin area and add this code in htaccess of your blog/site:

# BEGIN WordPress

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
ErrorDocument 404 /index.php?error=404
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>

# END WordPress

Thanks,

Shane G.

The latter fixed the load time… a million thank yous.

Now I just need to get the pages/links to load. Still showing “page cannot be found”.

Could it be a database error?

Well, I don’t really have the time (it’s an e-commerce store) to wait. I guess I’ll take the day and reinstall.
