Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: Dashboard LinksWhat are some good alternative domain servers that also include WordPress?
I’m ready to jump ship.
— I tried suggestions #1:
When I looked at the current wp-config.php file in on my domain, it was completely blank (I looked using wordpad).
So, I looked at the backup copy of it I saved when I backed up the old blog before upgrading – and I added the line suggested in #1 and uploaded it.
When I checked the blog, I got a completely blank page.
So, I deleted that config file and uploaded the backup copy of the latest version I had just changed (the one that showed no script in wordpad) and I still got a blank screen.
I’ve emailed Yahoo again.
What I’m going to do now is try to delete all the wp content and upload the saved files of the old version to see if I can get to the beginning.
I am also going to hunt for an alternative host pronto, because a blog feature and website is vital to what I do for work…..
—-sigh—-
Thanks, but I doubt that is it:
I was on the phone with the Yahoo people for over an hour and they finally said they had checked and tried everything they could think of to get it to work and were punting me to WordPress – which does not have phone or email support people.
And I don’t have the time or tech skill to troubleshoot this if the Yahoo people could work on it for so long only to end up admitting they were stumped.
This sucks – because I need to use the blog for work on a daily basis – every day it is down is not good.
