Are you using PAID or FREE GoDaddy hosting?

Be sure to select the Linux server option.

I’m not seeing what this all si supposed to do? You don’t need to go thru any crazy steps just to upload and install WP to GoDaddy.

Or is this addressing some specific issue, such as the Rich Text Editor not working?

I’ll try a test intall via these instructions later I guess.

I have recently set up and tested a site with the GoDaddy ‘Free’ webhosting. You have to choose the Linux set-up and not the windows set-up.

It works fine, sabe for two issues: The ad header they insert shows up on the “image” window and I HAVE NOT YET BEEN ABLE TO GET THE RICH TEXT EDITING TO WORK.

If anyone has any comments on the latter problem, I’d appreciate it.

Let me join the chorus.

WP 2.0.1 installed…not WYSIWYG…

Hmmm….anyone?

The problem is usually, from my experience, in your wp-config.

Be sure that you put in the specific “HOST” that GoDaddy give you. Usually something like mysql.secureserver23.com or something like that.

In fact, I just renewed a domain name with godaddy thia am and took advantage of the “free ad supported website” that comes with it now.

I am have a few little issues, but I’m sure they’ll work out.

Select the image in the WYSIWYG editing window. Click on the image properties button. Change alignment.

Tick…tock…tick…tock…

Yeah, I’ve noticed this too. Someting with the images, uploads, thumbnails, etc…

For what it is worth, I just upgraded to 2.0 RC3 and this fuction is operating correctly for all options.

Skippy:

mysql database is 0.80 Megabytes

I agree. Nice theme/layout but the colors…YIKES!

Running WP 2.0 RC2.

When I run the WP DB Backup it startes but usually “hangs” at some point. When I chech the server, there are actaully files created by it in the folder it created. This is regardless of if I’m telling it to email, downloag, or saver save the backup file. It always saves to the server regardless of selection.

Sorry, using the 2.0 RC2 included WordPress Database Backup plug-in.
