Here’s the Drupal 7 “Views” plug-in:

https://www.drupal.org/project/views:

You like the default front page view, but you find you want to sort it differently.

You like the default taxonomy/term view, but you find you want to sort it differently; for example, alphabetically.

You use /tracker, but you want to restrict it to posts of a certain type.

You like the idea of the ‘article’ module, but it doesn’t display articles the way you like.

You want a way to display a block with the 5 most recent posts of some particular type.

You want to provide ‘unread forum posts’.

You want a monthly archive similar to the typical Movable Type/Wordpress archives that displays a link to the in the form of “Month, YYYY (X)” where X is the number of posts that month, and displays them in a block. The links lead to a simple list of posts for that month.

In Drupal 8, the current version, this functionality is natively available.

I only saw one such view capability for WP and it’s not free for custom content types.

Thanks,

Thank you!!!

Upping the memory limit in the php.ini file did the trick. ??

My .htaccess is above.

Thanks for helping me find the Permalinks. ??

The Permalinks were not set to “plain”. I tried a couple of the other settings, but without the explicit “index.php” in the URL, still doesn’t work.

Thanks.

I could never find where the permalink settings were.

In any case, the problem turned out to be that, unlike accessing the site as usual, I needed an explicit “index.php” in the URL path for the REST to return JSON.

All good now.

Thanks.

If I use this URL: (Site_URL)/index.php/wp-json/v2/posts/

I then get this response:

{
“code”: “rest_no_route”,
“message”: “No route was found matching the URL and request method”,
“data”: {
“status”: 404
}
}

Removing .htaccess made no difference.

The overall site comes up fine in all cases, but not the REST URL.

The site initially installed as a REST-supported WP 4 site, but automatically updated to WP 5.02.

Suggestions?

Thanks much,

I did a simple default install. I’ll ask the hosting company since they modified the .htaccess for the free SSL cert.

Thanks very much. Some of these have good potential. ??

I appreciate your follow up.

I had tried the Web installer, but it failed the dozen or so times I tried it.

Moving back to Linux for this site… ??

Thanks again.

Appreciate your reply, but from my original posting, I am trying to get this to work with MySQL 8.

I’m going to abandon this WP-on-Windows Server effort as it’s already taken hours of research (Windows!) and, instead, just install the WP site on Linux in a few minutes.

Thanks again.

Trying to set up a wordpress site on Windows server, if possible.

I like the idea of ditching MAMP, but I thought I needed it for the correct environment for WordPress and other LAMP CMSs?

So, if my domain name is https://www.example.com, how would you create a domain, reachable on the Internet for a wordpress site using Mac Server’s Website’s dialog? I tried to create something like “wp.example.com”, but that didn’t work. Set IP address to “Any”, port 80, Anyone can access. (Nothing else configured in Additional Domains, Redirects, or Aliases.)

This sounds extremely promising as I can’t keep restoring the machine every time WordPress overwrites some file when I change the site URL.

Look forward to hearing back.

Yeah, I tried that a while ago and had the same problem, but this time, after reading your post and trying it again, it actually worked.

Whatever, I guess…

Thanks for the suggestion! ??

Yes, thank you for this help! ??

I’ve updated the image links and it’s all working now.

I really, really appreciate the excellent help!!!!

Sure it’s a site in progress so here is the ip:

https://205.234.145.139/

Look forward to hearing back.
