This has been covered very many times already. Here’s one example.

Wow, 10 months an no reply. I am looking for the same information also. I have an outline type manual and although I could put each section in pages and then manually create a page navigation with links to sub sections, it would be better to use sub categories because you can select a subsection (post) or select the parent category and get them all. I just need to be able to list them by a custom attribute…section number, instead of date.

See this thread.

Looks good to me. Thanks for the follow-up and good tagging. Info related to WordPress on intranets is sure sparse!

Oh, one thought, make sure all your templates use the same header or that this function is in all your headers, otherwise people could stumble on via search.

Also, might want to make sure and add robots.txt file to root to ask google, etc. not to index your blog.

If you’re good at database stuff you could create a script (whatever they call DTS packages on MySQL) that copied the user tables from one DB to the the WP db on a nightly or even more frequent schedule, or a trigger whenever there was a new account on the existing application.

It would take some PHP skills to get auto-login to work with WordPress, oh and some sort of LDAP access (PHP has modules you can install for this).

Or skip the PHP part and just make sure they have cookies turned on. So they’ll have to login redundantly only once and be logged in automatically when they return.

Never tried that but it’s known that IIS doesn’t support WordPress that well. Since Linux is so light-weight why not get some old PC and install an Ubuntu LAMP on it? I have no sysadmin experience but managed to do this quickly. Have wordpress installed and search works fine. Our sysadmin did the DNS entries but didn’t touch my server, I just asked him to add my box to the DNS server.

WordPress doesn’t care if it’s behind a firewall or not. I’m not sure what your problem is / needs are based on your question. At my firm we have a blog on our intranet which is inaccessible to the outside world because it’s on a server that is not publicly accessible.

I have many blogs on internet on public web servers.

The blog setup is the same, it is the server setup / DNS that is different.

I had this problem on my own server. It turns out I was installing the blog into a directory which was not permissibe enough. For example, installing at https://myserver/blogs/blogname/ didn’t work until I set both the ‘blogs’ and ‘blogname’ directory to 775. (In addition to making sure install.php was 777 and wp-config.php was 775).
Perhaps 775 is too liberal for the directories, I’m not sure. But it worked for me.

After disabling all plugins permalinks worked again. I reenabled askimet and new post permalinks still work, so does page preview.

I have to get back to work so I can’t test each plugin now to find the culprit but I think it was the WordPress HashCash plugin. The others I had on were just Auto-Close comments and Google Sitemaps.

I’m having this problem too…create a post as usual but permalinks aren’t working (but only for NEW posts). I made sure my .htaccess file was chmod 666 and tried changing the slug to see if it would work after upgrading to 2.1.3 from 2.1.1. No dice.

(FWIW post preview isn’t working either, but that’s not as critical as the page links!)

How do you find out if AllowOverride is working? I have a blog that worked fine for years and all the old links still work but new post permalinks spit out a blank page. Not a 404, just blank.

Whoohoo! I was getting very frustrated with this exact problem. Followed CODEX instructionas Using_Javascript and my src was getting stripped in addition to my line endings getting lost, even while using TextControl.

I was entering the code in the text editor popup provided by the HTML link on the rich editor. As soon as I unchecked ‘Use the visual rich editor when writing’ in my user profile everything worked as expected.

Screw the WYSIWYG, I’m a control freak I guess.

I’ve been waiting for my new post to show up on my feed for 4 hours now. Not sure what’s going on…

I’ve been reading related posts and checked out

codex.www.ads-software.com/Changing_File_Permissions

CHMOD-ing wp-content to 777 did not fix the problem, but creating and then CMOD-ing ‘uploads’ to 775 did finally resolve the problem. I’m not really comfortable using 777, so I changed wp-content to 775 and upload still worked.

Hope that helps someone…

This just started happening for me as well on a blog I upgraded to WP 2.0.2. It doesn’t seem to be the actual directory it references, as it never did that before and the directories don’t exist. Could it be the file that’s trying to create the directories doesn’t have sufficient permission? If so, what file is that?
