Not sure what was different in the codes, but that last line has something to do with where your blog files are on your server, but obviously that wasn’t the cause.

I’m sorry.. I’m being more trouble than help. Hopefully someone that has come ideas will come along. I will try to think of solutions but other than what I’ve attempted – and being lost for other suggestions – I would probably first try to see if another theme works and if not, than I would try a reinstall.

Hmmm…. I’m at a loss. So this is more or less guessing now LOL

Not sure if this might help, but since it has the same name that is in all your links, it might be the culprit. In the same folder where you found the .htaccess file there is also a file called “index.php”

Open that up in Notepad (if you don’t have Notepad++, you should probably get it for future editing of these files – it’s free). It should say this in it:

<?php
/**
* Front to the WordPress application. This file doesn’t do anything, but loads
* wp-blog-header.php which does and tells WordPress to load the theme.
*
* @package WordPress
*/

/**
* Tells WordPress to load the WordPress theme and output it.
*
* @var bool
*/
define(‘WP_USE_THEMES’, true);

/** Loads the WordPress Environment and Template */
require(‘./wp-blog-header.php’);
?>

Look at the last line:
require(‘./wp-blog-header.php’);

Is that how it looks? If there is something between “(‘.” and “/wp-blog-header.php’);” try deleting that.

What theme are you currently using? Where are you uploading the image: through the wordpress admin panel or directly via ftp?

can you access your site with the current theme, or is that not working either? Or did it work and now it doesn’t since you changed your permission settings. (I am not familiar with permission setting issues as I never had to deal with it for my blog, but knowing if your blog worked at all will give a starting point.)

No problem. I’m one of those people that learn by helping others.

RE: .htaccess file: Once uploaded on to your site, can you edit its name there? (Don’t forget the period before the “htaccess” part.)

Since you removed the AnyFonts and you don’t have that Front page thing, remove ALL of that coding and just put the code from above:

# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress

museumevaluationblog, I think it might be best to start your own thread as your issue may have nothing to do with this one.

First try clearing your internet cache and try again. If the problem continues, please read this first: https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Forum_Welcome and start a new thread with as much information as possible so people get get a better idea as to why that is occuring (there are numerous reasons.) Links also help.

For people to help you and know what you are referring to, you need to provide more information.

Please read https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Forum_Welcome for an explanation of what type of information to provide.

As per the link offered earlier in this thread: https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Using_Permalinks#Creating_and_editing_.28.htacces

“Where’s my .htaccess file?
Wordpress’s index.php and .htaccess files should be together in the directory indicated by the Blog address (URI) setting on your General Options page”

To find your “General Options” page you go into your wordpress admin page click on “Settings” then “General“. There you will find two options “WordPress address” and “Site address“. I am assuming both have https://millinersboutique.com listed, which means your posts should show as:

https://millinersboutique.com/postname

and NOT something like this:

https://millinersboutique.com/wordpressorsomething/postname

(On my site, I use the latter format and have two htaccess to mess up lol)

The .htaccess file will be not be recognizable so that is fine (as you saw you can still open it/edit it in Notepad.) My basic understanding of htaccess is it basically tells the browser how to get to your posts. As per that link again, it looks like your htaccess file is missing one important code block that tells the browser how to find your wordpress posts and that is:

# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress

When I had issues, one reason was because this was missing. The other was because a plugin had written other stuff on it. It is okay for plugins to write stuff on your htaccess file, but sometimes it breaks it.

I can see from what you have posted that you have at least two plugins that influence the htaccess file: AnyFont and FrontPage. So from here you can try two things: add the missing code and see if it works, or deactivate those those plugins first then see if it works.

Most people would suggest to deactivate those plugins and then go from there, however, even if it works after you deactivate them, once you reactivate them again, you may come across the same problems – and I assume you want to see it you can keep those plugins, right?

What I would try:
1. Keep the .htaccess file downloaded ‘as is’ (in case you want to come back to this state) – possibly save it in a folder called ‘old‘ to not confuse with any new htaccess you have to work with.

2. Open that .htaccess file and the code I pasted above to the beginning of the htaccess file (ie before “# BEGIN AnyFont“)and resave the file as .htaccess in a different location on your PC than the original (another folder names “new” for example.)

Notepad will try to put a .txt extension on it, so try to prevent that by changing “save as type” from “Text Documents (txt)” to “All Files (*.*)” so if you can save it without that extension. However this doesn’t always work and you may still find it saved on your PC as “htaccess.txt“. If so, open it again and resave save it without the txt on the end (with “All files (*.*)” selected. I have found that the second try works.

3. Upload this new .htaccess file to the same spot on your website where you found the original. It will warn you that you are replacing the original, which is what you want to do.

Check your site (you may have to clear your internet cache). If everything works, great! But if not, you many have to get rid of those plugins.

I think we are on the right track.. just now I did a search for “index/php htaccess” and came up with this thread with a similar issue to yours (except they have no plugins and are using a subdirectory):

https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/i-cannot-get-rid-of-indexphp-in-permalinks-htaccess?replies=7

Thanks, James.. that was the post I was talking about.

willow6, Where did you install wordpress? For example if you installed in so your blog shows at https://www.yoursite.com/blog, then you will find the htaccess file under public_html –> blog

When you find it, to look at what it says, download it to your computer and you can open it with notepad to see what it says.

I had a temporary problem with my htaccess file. It would tell me it was updated like you mentioned, but still didn’t work. I don’t have the link, but somewhere on this site the show the code for what the basic htaccess file should be. I saved the problem one (as a backup) and replaced it with the code suggested here and it seemed to work after that (I also cleared my internet cache because my browser was being naughty and not picking up my changes). If you try this, definitely make a back up as I’m more or less a beginner at this but suggesting only because it worked for me.

My issue was due to a plugin I had installed, called picpoket (even though I had uninstalled it), so whatever plugins you have might be useful for others to help you.

Have you tried changing it to one of the pre-determined ones to see if they work?

I have already spent way too much time trying to search for a resolution and came across a video that shows an easy alternative to my problem to have it where my main page is (or at least perceives to be) my blog.

So if anyone wants an easier way to do make it that when someone goes to your site and automatically sees your blog main page this tutorial “How to Redirect Your Root URL to Your WordPress Subdirectory Using Cpanel” will help. here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pC_HNbly6mI

As googlebots are still searching my site, I hope this will make the google gods happy again as my files are all back to where they were before I changed them. I hope they will now add my posts again.

Will check back in case others had this issue and want an alternative. (though unless someone can retroactively point out what I could be should be done/reason for it not showing originally then I can sleep better and it may help future folks, either way I think I sould change this to ‘resolved’ but don’t know how ?? )

I see this:

Daan Design ontwerpt hier RL – Vastgoed zorg
[YOUR WAS LOGO HERE]

Onze excuses voor het ongemak, probeer het over enkele dagen opnieuw.
Uw website, flyer, logo door Daan Design laten maken?

Is that a temporary page you put up, or do you mena you are supposed to see your blog right there?

Reading the help section at Google (to try to find help on my issue) I came across this:

https://www.google.com/support/blogsearch/?hl=en#oldposts

Why aren’t my oldest posts listed?

Since Blog Search indexes blogs by their site feeds, it will only include items that have been posted since it started indexing a given blog. For most blogs, that will be around June 2005, or the time at which you submitted your blog for inclusion. We are working on ways to include older posts as well.

Not sure how old some of your posts are, but that could be why. They also have other articles on there that may be helpful.

I can click through and see the recipes. Are you still experience problems on your end? Have you tried to clear your internet cache and tried again? Perhaps provide a link to a specific example?

Did you put in the custom box
%postname%

OR

/%postname%/

The second one should work. Here is a site that helped me:
https://perishablepress.com/press/2008/02/06/permalink-evolution-customize-and-optimize-your-dated-wordpress-permalinks/

One of the things it touches on (other than changing your permalinks to just have the post name) is how to get it that should there be any external links to your older posts, it will redirect. I ultimately decided not to play with my htaccess file and downloaded this plugin so any external links to my blog could find there way to the correct post: https://www.microkid.net/wordpress/permalinks-moved-permanently/comment-page-8/#comment-23454

Hope this helps.

This isn’t a wordpress issue, but I have have read information about this some while ago. I believe it has to do with whether you have anit-alias on or not.
Background info: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spatial_anti-aliasing

I did a quick search and for ‘photoshop anti-alias transparent tutorial’ and got this tutorial that might be helpful (I just skimmed it, so if not helpful, I’m sure googling what I suggested you’ll find something better):

Hope this helps, TheCuriosity.
