The login page appears fine, but the functionality is no longer working. Basically, it just takes me to the following URL:

https://www.mysite.com/blog/login/wp-login.php

There is a message saying “Oops – There’s Nothing Here. It looks like the blog owner hasn’t written anything yet!”. This is the default message that appears before there are any posts written. Right now, it takes me here whether I type a good ID/password or not. There is also a “welcome back” message that is supposed to be appearing on my main page that isn’t showing up. Could it be that it can’t find the “wp-login.php”?

Thanks that did the trick!

There is another related problem, I’m hoping you have some insight on. On my blog, I have a login form that, if I remember correctly, I pulled from either the codex or another forum post. This code doesn’t work any more after I changed my URL. It is simply supposed to log you in using the same manner as the admin area. Here is the form. the URL at the very bottom used to be /wordpress/ and I changed it to /blog/ (didn’t help though). See anything incorrect?

<form action=”wp-login.php” accept-charset=”UNKNOWN” enctype=”application/x-www-form-urlencoded” method=”post”>Username:
<input id=”user_login” class=”input” maxlength=”67108863″ name=”log” size=”20″ type=”text” />Password:
<input id=”user_pass” class=”input” maxlength=”67108863″ name=”pwd” size=”20″ type=”password” /> <input id=”rememberme” maxlength=”67108863″ name=”rememberme” size=”20″ type=”checkbox” value=”forever” /> Remember Me
<input id=”wp-submit” maxlength=”67108863″ name=”wp-submit” size=”20″ type=”submit” value=”Log In” /> <input maxlength=”67108863″ name=”testcookie” size=”20″ type=”hidden” value=”1″ /> <input maxlength=”67108863″ name=”redirect_to” size=”20″ type=”hidden” value=”/blog/” /> </form>

Samboll, am I deleting the .htaccess from the “blog” folder or the “wordpress” folder? The codex told me to copy this file to the new “blog” folder. I’m assuming I don’t need it in the “wordpress”folder anymore correct?

Thanks! I think the advice should be read more carefully ?? I didn’t even see that small character difference on the first pass. I’ll give this a try. Thanks again.

Thank you for the information on the conditional tags. If I’m understanding this correctly, I probably can’t use the “is_category” method on the single.php page because I’m not actually on a category page, correct? If so, I’m still not clear how to solve my problem here. Can you give me any advice on how to do this? Thank you.

Excellent! That worked for me too. Thanks!
