will give that a shot…thanks!!

ok think I found the culprit although now I don’t know how to fix it!

The article suggested it may be the wp cache plugin. This plugin was actually already installed when I did the WP install. Anyway, I deactivated it.

Now after reading the article thought that may be the culprit, I decide to delete the plugin to see if it would correct the problem and my site and admin are completely blank now.

I’m assuming at this point I’m going to have to uninstall WP folders/files and then reinstall. BTW is there a proper protocol for this, or is it basically just deleting the files via ftp?

It’s in a subdirectory, so I’m hoping deleting the files and reinstalling won’t cause issues. that is it’s under mysite.com/wordpress

I tried the clearing my cache and it didn’t help. Will check out that article now…thanks!

working now…somehow it was configured for an database I am currently using for one of my other sites???? don’t know how that happened.

Thanks!

thanks sooo much for your help with this…btw fun website you have there ??

Hi,

Thanks for the reply. Just to clarify – don’t want to mess this up ??

I’m going to create a folder such as:

https://www.mysite.com/wordpress

Install wp files in this folder

Once all is intalled and I see my site under https://www.mysite.com/wordpress

then I can move these folders and files to the root???

One other side question if you don’t mind: What are the benefits of doing it this way as oppose to just deleting the files of the old website and doing a fresh install of WP directly on the root directory?

Thanks so much!

btw have firewall plugin installed…

oh and PS… clicking on links within my site, like the pages will redirect to the www version in IE.

It’s just when I type my site directly in the url address bar that it does not get redirected in IE (only in firefox)

weird just added to the post and it never went through???

Anyway, added the rewrite listed above to my htacess file and made my site inaccessible.

I tried the redirection plugin and in IE it did nothing…in firefox it wasn’t allowing me to connect to my site at all.

In my current htaccess file I have this rule
RewriteCond /home/xxx/public_html/newbizblogger.com/wp-content/w3tc/pgcache/$1/_default_.html%{ENV:APPEND_EXT} -f

Would changing it to public_html/www.newbizblogger.com/…. make a difference??

thanks!

yeah…the funny thing is that I use that all the time and somehow kept missing it…working too hard it guess ??

cool thanks!! I can’t believe I missed that ??

that totally did it! Thanks!!

aaahhh! I give up! Think I need a break…

I downloaded the vipers quick tag but still no luck getting my video’s on. Can’t even add a youtube video. When I enter the url and click ‘ok’ nothing happens. Doesn’t even show that its working.

will try this again in a couple of days

Hi Again,

Ok so after MANY hours at this I thought I had it worked out, yet still running into issues and hoping someone can help me out.

I finally settled on Flowplayer and downloaded an application to convert my .avi video to .flv

Uploaded that file to the area as explained on their demo site https://www.saiweb.co.uk/wordpress-flowplayer

Plugged in following code in the new post body area:

[FLOWPLAYER=ftp_video2.flv,600,450]

But was getting error message:
‘200 stream not found. netstream.play.streamnotfound.clip.[Clip]’https://mysite.com/ftp_video2.flv

Then tried this code:
[FLOWPLAYER=wp-content/videos/ftp_video2.flv,600,450]

The audio works but the video doesn’t.

At my wits end, any ideas would be greatly appreciated!

Ps I did put in a thread with the flowplayer forum hours ago and still have not gotten a response.

i think I know what the problem is…my video is in avi format… this plugin only takes mp#. Need to see if I can convert if or use another plugin
