In reply to: Accessing locally hosted wordpress site from network machinesFonglh, that was the magic question. The site URL’s all had localhost which for whatever reason wasn’t resolving when accessed by a network machine. I changed the URL’s to the ip address:8888 and everything is good. Thanks for the tip, I knew it had to be something pretty straightforward ….

Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Accessing locally hosted wordpress site from network machinesSorry, I should have given what I use to try to connect. I’ve tried all sorts of things to get there but the only one that worked was:
http://10.72.32.66:8888/wordpress
That’s what let’s me see the content, but not the formatting. If I leave off the wordpress, I see the default index.html page in the /library/WebServer/Documents folder and if I do:
http://10.72.32.66:8888/images (a folder I created for testing) I see a list of the files in the folder and can click on any of them.
If I do: http://10.72.32.66 I get the same webpage as if I had the :8888 on the end. But, if I try:
http://10.72.32.66/wordpress I get a message that says, “You have chosen to open which is a: application/x-httpd-php
Do you want to open the file or save it?Like I said, I can see the website, I can access files on the server, but for some reason when I access wordpress from a network machine, it’s like it doesn’t know about how to find its own files.
