Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: Hosted on Netfirms how do I upgrade?IF your version 2.6 is a brand new blog, and you havent’ posted anything in it, I suggest you totally scrap it and just install 2.6.1, saves you some time in upgrading it from 2.6 to 2.6.1.
Here’s how to install 2.6.1

IF your 2.6 version is not a brand new blog, aka, you have old posts on it, then I suggest you upgrade wordpress to avoid losing your previous posts.
Here’s how you upgrade 2.6.1:

In reply to: Move blog from subdirectory to rootCan you check your index.php file and check whether this code is there:
require(‘./wp-blog-header.php’);
I’m looking at this thread..and thinking maybe you have to do what “rob pannell did.

In reply to: wp-admin 404 error after upgrading to 2.6.1Are you sure your folder names are correct?
I would recommend some consistency in organizing your WP folders/files.
If all your folders are “wp-[name]” then keep them that way, if they are “wp[name]” then you should also keep them that way. There is no way you can access your admin panel if your folder is “wp-admin” and you type in “wpadmin”.
Secondly, once you figure that out, try pointing to the corresponding place, aka, if your folders start with “wp-” then go to these:
https://www.darrengibson.org/wp-admin/
https://www.darrengibson.org/wp-login.php
https://www.darrengibson.org/wp-admin/upgrade.phpYou cannot have a mix of “wp” and “wp-” folders unless you really want to screw with wordpress to achieve that.

In reply to: Error establishing a database connectionI am able to see both your site and your blog site. Both seem to be working fine.
Clear your internet cache and restart your browser.

Take a read, maybe this will help.

In reply to: dashboard/homepage/login problemsDid you follow the installation instructions properly? How did you install WP?
May be you should rename index.php to an actual directory name such as “myblog” or something without the .php.
I think you may have installed the whole thing incorrectly. You need to upload the wordpress files into a folder on your hosting server.
Do you know what your site URL is?
Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: Anyone host their WordPress on their own server??Check this out: https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Hosting_WordPress
check to see if your wp-config.php file is corrupt or not.
The coding inside it should look similar to this:
<?php // ** MySQL settings ** // define('DB_NAME', ''); // The name of the database define('DB_USER', ''); // Your MySQL username define('DB_PASSWORD', ''); // ...and password define('DB_HOST', ''); // 99% chance you won't need to change this value define('DB_CHARSET', 'UTF-8'); define('DB_COLLATE', ''); // Change each KEY to a different unique phrase. You won't have to remember the phrases later, // so make them long and complicated. You can visit https://api.www.ads-software.com/secret-key/1.1/ // to get keys generated for you, or just make something up. Each key should have a different phrase. define('AUTH_KEY', '] 9=uovw4''); define('SECURE_AUTH_KEY', ''); define('LOGGED_IN_KEY', ''); // You can have multiple installations in one database if you give each a unique prefix $table_prefix = 'wp_'; // Only numbers, letters, and underscores please! // Change this to localize WordPress. A corresponding MO file for the // chosen language must be installed to wp-content/languages. // For example, install de.mo to wp-content/languages and set WPLANG to 'de' // to enable German language support. define ('WPLANG', ''); /* That's all, stop editing! Happy blogging. */ if ( !defined('ABSPATH') ) define('ABSPATH', dirname(__FILE__) . '/'); require_once(ABSPATH . 'wp-settings.php'); ?>
With values filled in where-ever you see quotes. If you want to be lazy, maybe try re-uploading your wp-config.php file, with one that worked before. If that doesn’t work, then check the coding in the file.

In reply to: errors installing with Fantasticohmm, you could always just try installing it manually.

In reply to: home pageI “think” I’ve found your problem.
First of all,
Your site is here:
https://cushspace.com/yahoo_site_admin/ correct?
Secondly, I see in your index, that you have a file called “index.html/
If you put a / after the .html, the server will look at it as a directory folder and not an html file.
The reason why your site is not showing is because you have no index.html file in your root directory.
You do however, have index.html/ and index.php.bak
What you need to do is, put your webpage file into this directory, and name it index.html
Then rename this thing: myblog.html/ into myblog, and this should do the trick.
Afterwards, this is what would result:
https://cushspace.com goes to your site
https://cushspace.com/myblog/ goes to your blogForum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: errors installing with FantasticoHmm,
Did you setup your database through your host?
Have you inserted the correct values into your wp-config.php file?
When did this error occur? What were you doing?
Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: home pagehuh? How the heck do you expect us geniuses here to help you with the information you’ve given us in that post of yours.
By downloading, you mean installing?
What is your original homepage? Give us an address to work with.
What do you want as your wordpress address?The only reason its in your home page is probably because you didn’t install it in the root directory…

In reply to: Installed fine, dashboard area fine, home page is blank@ cabachona
Maybe try copy/pasting your content folder into the new wordpress directory.
Is your old wordpress messed up or something? What exactly is wrong with it?
It’s hard to repair a wordpress by just installing a new version of wordpress and transferring files. There’s a database that needs to be taken into consideration etc.
Best way to do it is the way majority of people do it.
