Please is there anyone who can offer some advice? How can someone can advice on here?? Never managed it yet ??

I found the issue! It was related to how the client had configured their domain ?? Thanks

I had a customised permalink structure in place before activating the multisite network.

OK, so I took someones advice on that thread – since my blog is for multiple personal blogs (registration not open) I felt perfectly safe to do the following

I went to Super Admin > Sites > Edit.

Scroll down to “Permalink Structure” and remove the “/blog” part. That should work.

This remedied my problem immediately.

I have read these items and have installed the Spanish wordpress – however key phrases even in the official translated version are still in English.

I′ve looked and cannot find “remove /blog/ plugins”. It could be that my eyes are painted on but I have looked in the wordpress directory and nothing came up.

I really want this /blog/ gone out of my URL structure.

Anyone? ??

I have obtained long term work with WordPress via ODesk (hourly contracts) however I must add that it is a freelancer and it is most unsual to secure a “full time” position with all the benefits those bring.

Gencote, Michael H is right. If you host has CPANEL installed then head to phpMyAdmin. Look up table wp_users, and browser. You will be able to view the users on file and if needed change the email address there.

I have to agree with fldtrace. WordPress works for a great many company sites, but in some cases (especially ones like yours) I would recommend something like Expression Engine. Granted its control panel is not as easy as wordpress, but it doesn′t take long to learn how to utilise it and master the art of creating really feature rich corporate sites with.

Thank you andixx for your suggestion. Worked beautifully for me.

They never highlighted the issue because there wasn′t one.

It was a plugin issue I just resolved it.

I am now shame faced. Sorry Hostgator.

If you want to run upgrades through the wp-admin interface do not move to hostgator.

They have said they do not allow the facility to upgrade through the wp-admin interface only through fantastico. A small problem to some, but there is a delay with the fantastico release and I also beta test the current release on one of my blogs. I am used to the ease of doing this through wp-admin, I like doing it through wp-admin.

When questioned beforehand about their suitability hostgator. never once highlighted their would be a problem with any of us.

Just in case anyone else utilises custom fields to create images within a site (say a portfolio for example…) I recommend the use of plugin slimbox, worked for me
