[Plugin: wp-classified] If you click “Add an ad” AND nothing happens!

Hi guys,

Just a quickie to let you know the solution.

I had this problem, it all looked good, I’d figured out the slightly complex issue of needing to add a category AND a list before it seems to work….

BUT, if I clicked to ad a new classified ad, after filling in all the info and the captcha, I was redirected to a blank page and nothing was saved.

The solution is to ensure that you update your .htaccess file. You will need access to FTP, download the .htaccess in your root directory and make sure you include:

# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
##########
#RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
##########
RewriteRule !classified/ /index.php [L]
RewriteRule ^classified/([^/\(\)]*)/?  /index.php?pagename=classified [QSA,L,R,NS]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress

The creator, Mohammad, actually provides the answer himself in the README file of the download, but it can be hard to find if you don’t know where to look

Thanks Mohammad for a super plugin, I know you have a load of things keeping you busy.

Ciao for now, Lilly
