Thanks Everybody

I also followed up with my host (I’d thought they only provided WordPress and didn’t support it – not true). They also said it was the security thing and have fixed it. Everything going fine. I’m really impressed with https://www.webhosting.uk.com (recommended somewhere in WordPress). They answer their phones and respond promptly to emails – how cool is that!

Hi

Anybody any ideas about this problem:

“I can create pages and posts that have only plain text in them.

I can’t create pages or posts that have any kind of formatting (eg bold words/weblinks). As soon as I bold a word and try to save WordPress “crashes” into the “Index /” page with cgi folders etc.”

There seem to be lots of people having the same problem on this forum, especially recently.

I tried another new installation, with exactly the same results.

I installed with Fantastico Deluxe, which seemed to go OK, and I can create posts but only with plain text, no formatting links etc.

I’m using Firefox 2.0.0.6 on Ubuntu Feisty, but I doubt that should be a problem

Probably not related but my dashboard is showing three copies of “Index of /”, all exactly the same except one is headed “Latest Activity”, it doesn’t seem right, the different panels are ovelapping.

It’s not just bold that doesn’t work – anything other than plain text, web links for example, produce the same result.

Thanks, tried turning off visual editor and exactly the same thing happens – when either editing an existing text page or creating a new one with bold words it won’t save.

Any further suggestions much appreciated
