Yep, worked! Cheers!

Ok… but my htaccess file in the root contains NOTHING… is this correct?

I will add options -indexes… I guess I just type it on line one and then leave a line after? Like..

‘options -indexes’

heh.

Yeah?

(Thanks very much for the info)

It seems that when not logged in, o another another computer or whatever, you can view the contents of my wp directories… they do not have htaccess files in them, so i tried putting the one from my main dir in them but this does not help… perhaps because the one from my main directory appears to have nothing in it?

I really dont know how these things work but can someone tell me how to secure my directories?

Thanks very much.

Bizarre…. it just decided to work. It was a different installation though. So if anyone else has this problem I suggest you reinstall and try again a few times. It seems to be a bit random… I have heard others claim this as well.

Nope, tried it!

Right, I have tried all the file permissions and with and without the www. but I am still getting ‘The endpoint you entered was not correct’… I downloaded wordpress today, from the download link above, so I can’t think it needs upgrading… is there an easy answer I have missed?
