I used the Facebook debugging tool, and it’s definitely showing that the address is being redirected (the temp redirect folder is now called “RUKMN”). * A number of people have been complaining about this issue. So far, I haven’t found a solution. I’m hoping that it’s a temporary Facebook glitch. * Response Code: 404 Fetched URL: [http://pollywoginc.com/blog/2013/05/28/a-new-spin-on-tires/](http://pollywoginc.com/blog/2013/05/28/a-new-spin-on-tires/) Canonical URL: [http://pollywoginc.com/blog/2013/05/28/a-new-spin-on-tires/](http://pollywoginc.com/blog/2013/05/28/a-new-spin-on-tires/) Final URL: [http://pollywoginc.com/RUKMN/blog/2013/05/28/a-new-spin-on-tires/](http://pollywoginc.com/RUKMN/blog/2013/05/28/a-new-spin-on-tires/) * Forum: [Developing with WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/wp-advanced/) In reply to: [failed to open stream error](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/failed-to-open-stream-error-1/) * [DevonTT](https://wordpress.org/support/users/devontt/) * (@devontt) * [16 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/failed-to-open-stream-error-1/#post-1369068) * I’m having the same problem, but the file IS there, and the permissions do allow public reading and execution. So why am I still getting this error? It’s breaking WP entirely and I can’t even access the admin panel. * The file it’s looking for is a plugin.

I’m trying to show all the most recent posts with their comments expanded. Here’s the site: * [http://www.airportdogpark.com](http://www.airportdogpark.com) * As you can see, the page displays all posts, but not the comments. Users have to note the number of comments under each post (if any) and then click in order to read them. I’d like for any post that has comments to automatically display in its expanded state. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Question on Comments and the Loop](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/question-on-comments-and-the-loop/) * Thread Starter [DevonTT](https://wordpress.org/support/users/devontt/) * (@devontt) * [19 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/question-on-comments-and-the-loop/#post-537747) * Well, heck. I thought I finally had my problem solved. Turns out the above code only displays the comments and not the post AND comments as I’d hoped. * Thanks for your help, doodlebee. I don’t suppose you know how to tweak the code so that it will show the post plus comments to it when the page loads? * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Show Comments by Default](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/show-comments-by-default/) * Thread Starter [DevonTT](https://wordpress.org/support/users/devontt/) * (@devontt) * [19 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/show-comments-by-default/#post-515309) * Apparently nobody knows the answer to this.
