I’ve had a similar problem with what I guess is the same Subscribe.php file. Don’t remember where I got it ’cause I’m not using it, but it is incorrectly displaying in a similar fashion too.

From memory it is part of the Subscribe2 plugin by Skippy. Maybe email him?

Works fine for me. 1024×768 res. FF 1.5

Um, just checked out your site and EVERY internal link I tried on your blog resulted in the 500 error. Not just when I tried to comment.

I have no idea why this would be happening, but I would email your host ASAP about it. They may know what the source of the problem is. Whenever I get 500 errors (never on my blog but on other sites I’ve developed, and even then a VERY rare occurance) I email my host right away and they usually sort it out for me.

What do you expect adding to a discussion that is over 2 months old? If you had a problem with that code then you should have started a new thread. Your fault, not ours.

Furthermore, I’m not getting a 404 error when I click that link, and on a quick inspection I can’t locate a subscribe link just by viewing your site. I could probably have done a more comprehensive look around, but as you said, we’re ‘another shitty support forum’

Grow Up. You won’t get any help from any of us by insulting us because we didn’t reply within 7 hours.

Beat me to the punch. ?? I don’t think this should effect any other part of your site. I’ll have a look around.

UPDATE: Looks like all is well. Search box works fine.

Have you tried looking here?

Your culprit:
<form method="get" id="searchform" action="//blog2/index.php">

I don’t think you should have the two slashes there.

My search bar code looks like this and works great:

<form id="searchform" method="get" action="/index.php">
<input type="text" name="s" id="s" size="30" onblur="if(this.value=='')this.value='Search site';" onfocus="if(this.value=='Search site')this.value='';" value="<?php if (!$s) { $s = "Search site"; } echo $s; ?>" /></form>

You may have to edit it to suit your sites config.

Not sure why that would happen. Editing your permalink options shouldn’t change anything like that I don’t think.

I do question why you would need the author name if you are the only contributor to your blog? I use it, even though I am the author 99% of the time, purely for google and because I’d like the feature if I do add other authors. What I’m really saying is, is it worth the effort to include it?

Editing the template file will work.
Add <?php the_author(); ?> where you want the name to appear. More info can be found at https://codex.www.ads-software.com , more specifically https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Template_Tags/the_author

I like it. Personally I’m more into brightly coloured sites, but I think the thing that strikes me about your site is that it doesn’t look like a WordPress blog at first glance.

I’d be pretty proud of that acheivement. Rounded corners were a nice touch too btw.

No. No wordpress files go in the CGI bin. PHP doesn’t go in the CGI bin ever. Yeah, I reckon start fresh and install where you are supposed to.

Kinda strange your host told you all this incorrect information.

Your ISP? You mean your host yeah? Anyway, they are incorrect, it should be in your normal webspace.

For CHMOD questions, here is another thread that should have some answers for you:

WordPress should be in your html, public, www, whatever it is called with your host directory. The directory where you would normally put your index.html file for your website. Or if not, in a sub-directory of that directory.

I stand corrected. Thankyou for pointing out my error, I always thought that also disabled trackbacks.

LesBessant is correct, I too cannot access you stylesheet (CSS File) anymore since you re-did the file permissions.

CGI Bin issue is also true, didn’t notice that.

Yes, these sound like self-inflicted trackbacks.
Goto WP Admin > Options > Discussion
Untick “Attempt to notify any Weblogs linked to from the article (slows down posting.)”

Bye Bye to your own trackbacks. ?? Of course, this also means that you’ll never leave a trackback on another site, but how often do you anyway?
