In reply to: All images gone in media and on site after wordpress 6.0 auto updateUPDATE:
After checking with my server support staff, they came across a “general error” and were able to fix the images not showing in media and on the websites.However, the chmod() issues remain.
I tested updating an old theme to a new version, again it threw the error chmod()
The error tells me that wordpress 6 is able to delete the old file, then throws the chmod () error then says unable to write folder/new theme, to server.
The only option then is download a new theme file and manually FTP it across to webspace.I’ve been back to my server provider, they have checked read/write permissions are in place, they are.
They are stumped as am I, that wordpress can delete a file, but is unable to write a new one to the server, when permissions are set to allow it.
Very odd how it is able to delete one on my webspace but then tghrows an error that it’s unable to write to the very same webspace?This has happened after each website has auto updated to wordpress 6.
I’ll write again if I get any further.Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: cannot see full poststhanks for the info, the php trick worked.
pictures overlapping layout seems to be down to the theme programmer not putting in virtually no image code in the css (why i dont know)a simple <div> refresh inserted at the end of each post seems to have sorted the bad formatting out.
so next up, i insert a test tag, update a post and visit the website, now its knocked out all my text widgets!
i also have a large gap between my text widget and calendar in the side bar which i cannot seem to solve.its one thing after another with this thing, i sort one problem after days/hours (more by luck than knowledge) and the next thing i try throws up another problem.

In reply to: big problem using permalink structure“.. WordPress’s index.php and .htaccess files should be together in the directory indicated by the Blog address”
– yes they are both there in the same directory“Since the name of the file begins with a dot, the file may not be visible through an FTP client”
– uploaded it as “.htaccess” its showing via ftp program – then deleted it again, renamed to 1.htaccess on my computer, reuploaded it and then changed the name to .htaccess, refreshed and posted to website again to test, still no joy“You can edit the .htaccess file by FTP, shell, or (possibly) your host’s control panel.”
– done this for almost 3 hours now… still get “page cannot be found error” for permanent link to post, catagorized in, coments and the side menu catagorieswhen i go back to default links for posts, it works fine

In reply to: big problem using permalink structurehey tomas,
having exactly the same problems on a clean install of version 2.7 (new database, new domain)
uploaded the files, ran the install, set everything up so its there…. now what shall i do with it?
hmmm first off i want permalinks.20 minutes uploading and installing the whole package, over 2 hours trying to find a solution to get a built in feature to work!
links show as required when i hovver over them, click on links to post get a page error.
have read numerous forums before coming here (as the install instructions refer to this place, but the link is a dead link!)
lots of them suggest various bits of .htaccess code changes, not a single one works and the htaccess file cannot be found on my webspace.have uploaded htaccess as instructed, wordpress still doesnt recognise it.
why have the feature included in the package if
A, it doesnt work without modifications to code and files
B, you have to install other mods to have a chance of getting it to work
C, nobody seems to know how to get it to work?
