I found the problem (regarding uploading a unique header). You have to have access to the file manager for your site. Once you get there, you have to move the header that you uploaded to yoursitename.com/blog/wp-content/uploads (or however you have your site set up).

For some reason, Pie Register places the header file in the main directory.

Okay… I took (what for me was) a risk, and typed those commands into the line they seemed to belong to. I really apreciate your help. I was unsure of what search terms to use, and I had promised the dean I would have the website up by the end of the week, so we can start testing its uses.

Thank you! Everyone on this campus will sing your praises!

Thanks! This is where I may frustrate you…

It looks like Solution #1 would be the first step I should look at, because it seems to be the most simple (for me). This is what I do not understand about Solution #1:

1. “putting this in an .htaccess file”
What is “this”? Should I know, or does this = DirectoryIndex index.html index.htm index.php

2. If this = DirectoryIndex index.html index.htm index.php
Should I open the .htaccess file in a notepad and type >> DirectoryIndex index.html index.htm index.php << in?

This is what my current .htaccess file looks like:

DirectoryIndex index.html
AuthUserFile /home/users/apsucheer/www/englishfortheirish.com/.htpasswd
AuthGroupFile /home/users/apsucheer/www/englishfortheirish.com/.htgroup

AuthName “Site Studio”
AuthType Basic

<FILES .htpasswd>
deny from all
</FILES>

<FILES .htgroup>
deny from all
</FILES>

Should I change it to look like this:

DirectoryIndex index.html index.htm index.php
AuthUserFile /home/users/apsucheer/www/englishfortheirish.com/.htpasswd
AuthGroupFile /home/users/apsucheer/www/englishfortheirish.com/.htgroup

AuthName “Site Studio”
AuthType Basic

<FILES .htpasswd>
deny from all
</FILES>

<FILES .htgroup>
deny from all
</FILES>

I would just try it, but I’m afraid I’ll mess something up… although the entire website has been completely erased, because I’m rebuilding it from scratch.

Thank you for your help (from myself, and from the students and educators who will use this site)!
