Judging from the lack of responses, I would say there’s no such animal.

However, I did find a lot of php scripts and tutorials on the internet that I was able to tweak and get what I needed. Just google php login page samples, or something like that. It was fairly simple to do, however, my requirements were quite simple as well.

Good luck.

Turns out we got lucky on this one. The reason we couldn’t get logged in was because we changed the site url to the redirect rather than the Word Press url to the redirect. Everything is working fine, and thank God we are finally off that Plone system. What a nightmare that was.

As an update, we did a quick test by doing a redirect in apache to www2.sitename and the site works, but we can’t login.

Changed back so we could log in, changed the SITE url to match the new www2 url but that didn’t fix it. Should we have changed the WordPress URL instead??

I’m home now so I can’t test it live. If we screw up that wordpress url when we need to go into the database and change it back, right?

Gotta Love That Weaver Theme ??

After pulling my head out of my you know what, it dawned on me that I had not included the footer widgets in Weaver to be customizable in the Custom Widget setup. After correcting that, now when I create a new page I get the option of custom side bars left and right and all four custom footer widgets that can be set up on a by page basis.

For what it’s worth, for a noob like me who really only knows some basic HTML and CSS, and has no clue on PHP, this Weaver theme has really been great.

Gonna have to kick those guys a few bucks for their good work.

That forum is closed, just checked. Besides, doesn’t seem to me that this is a theme specific issue. Seems the same thing would apply regardless of what theme you are using.

OK, so I can copy the footer.php file to my child theme folder and edit as needed???

And this will not violate anything in the terms of use agreement?

Thanks for the heads up, but that doesn’t answer my question. Do I have to leave “Proudly powered by WordPress” in the footer??

I can use any combination of wild cards for the permalinks and they don’t work. The only thing that works is if I use index.php first. Then it works.

This stuff about the Directory Options to FollowSymLinks, and file info directives is a bit confusing. I have <Directory /opt/chaz/wordpress2>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
</Directory>

But that doesn’t fix the problem and I have to confess I am not sure where the File Info directive is suppose to go or what the proper syntax is as the documentation on Using Permalinks assume a level of techinical expertise that I, unfortunately do not pocess. Could someone do a noob a solid and post what the .htaccess file should look like so these permalinks will work. Much appreciated.

Wow, since no one responded to this post, does that mean no one is doing this, or do we just have things so screwed up no one has any idea what we did????

Thanks, we are still playing around and haven’t really decided on a theme yet, but thanks for the heads up.

Turns out the method we tried earlier won’t work. We get the right menus on the home page and the page that needs the custom menu, but when we click on any of thinks in the secondary menu, when that page opens it opens with the primary menu. So basically we would have to modify the header.php file with is_page code for each page that’s added to the secondary menu.So we need to find a better option.

Learned a lot, so we’ll keep pluggin away.

I guess if all else fails I can create a template that calls a custom menu sidebar widget for the menu, but I would rather have my menus under the header.

Thanks, we just figured it out.

In 2011 we went into functions.php and in the section where it registers the primary menu we added code to register a secondary menu. Now when we go into the admin side of 2011, we have two menus that the users can work with just like the standard menu.

Then in the header.php we added some “if_page_is” to pick the menu we want for that specific page.

Appears to be working ok, but always open to suggestions on how to do it better.

Thanks again.
