Changing the blogtitle and description should not break links. Whatever broke your links I am sure that this is not it.
Is your webserver working correctly ?
Can it display:
http://<your website name>/readme.html
http://<your website name>/
http://<your website name>/wp-admin
What style of permalinks do you have set ?
What does your .htaccess look like ?
Thank for your help
ok – i try to explain what i’ve made and what up.
only blog description changed, local site broken, live site ok!
now i wait on the live website with changing the title till i have the local setup runnin ok. (on the local site i have now changed, because its allready broken)
what is ok, is: backend with full functionality and also the startpage (homepage) all the child-pages end with blank (not found) – chrome says to many redirects!
i have it installed with mamp (codekit).
permalink structure: postname
htacces:
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
Are the results the same with a different browser ?
Please change your permalinks to default, does your site work with the ?p-123 style links ?
I still think you are looking for a server issue rather than a WordPress one.
the result is the same in all browsers. i see that there is something wrong with the adress. is that it does redirect from localhost to an incomplete localhost adress, as i can see now, but not found out yet what is causes.
if i change to ?p=123 link-style, the whole site is corruptet.
Can you experiment with some simple html only web pages, is your browser able to follow links ? and load images ?
Which operating system are you using ? Windows / Mac / Linux
Next I am going to ask you about apache2 access logs, also get you to enable logging of mod_rewrite. This is getting technical.
a “html only page” is working in mamps server, codekits server, and direct trought the html-file opening.
i use a mac, mavericks 🙂
the apache error log file i have open now.
need help for this. what i sould looking for?
about the mod_rewrite
is it the httpd.conf file that i should working on with? – what here? couldn’t find something like.
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName ...
DocumentRoot /....
</VirtualHost>
what is your point that; if my browser can show a simple web-page?
the apache log shows me unknown things with ssl and zip files that couldn’t open. can you arrest this hacker?? 🙂
what is your point
Changing blog titles and descriptions does not break websites !
Hence I am trying to test your web hosting.
Now requests for ssl and zip files, that is not expected. Which IP address are these coming from ? Where is it located ?
On a Linux (Ubuntu) setup, the web configurations like:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName ...
DocumentRoot /....
</VirtualHost>
Are found in: /etc/apache2/sites-available
you have misunderstood me.
that changing these titles do normaly not break a wordpress blog is clear.
but it happend in that momment. And it was not the first time, so,
what would you think, if these changes breaks permalinks?
me: database or hacker
that you try to test my local browser/server is clear too.
i realy try by myself to find, but this is realy to much technical for me. what can i do now?
thank you very much for helping!!
what can i do now?
* Uninstall and reinstall mamp
* Find a different mamp bundle
* Get an old PC, install Linux on it and add it to your LAN
i will loose my local wordpress install, if i uninstall mamp.
what i should do with a linux-pc. month ago i had one.
i have done the whole process. new mamp, new cloned backup.
working
then change Title and descrption.
SITE-LINKES BROKEN. belive it or not. sorry.
so now if you like to help – i would realy hear what i should make.
i like to know what the hell is fooling me with this site.
now i have changed the title on the live-site.
and what i can say is, that it does work till now without any problems.
its the same files. i have moved it from my local site 10 days ago.
so…
you a right, it does not and it should not affect, but do i have
introduced a bug by myself in the php code of the template-files since the last days that it have this obscure issue?
it doesen’t make sense.
