Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Categories & Tags not workingThe problem for me was solved using Chrome. Firefox on both Mac and Windows — probably something to do with a plugin (NoScript?) — wouldn’t let me add any Tags into posts, or add new Categories. Tried it again with Chrome, and worked like a charm.
Symptom for me was that the tag box kept the default “Add New Tag” value, even when typing in something else. That gets cleared automatically in Chrome when typing. So, seems to be a javascript-type issue.
Hope that might help someone.

In reply to: Zone Alarm Obstructs LoginHad the same problem — could never login using ZoneAlarm Security Suite — problem is that if any of its “privacy” settings are on at all, it will still block localhost and 127.0.0.1, even if you enter them as sites. So, turn those settings off while working with WordPress locally.
Here’s more:

In reply to: failed to open streamAs motionid said, it’s a MS permission-thing. Here’s the quick and dirty solution — fine for development sites, but NOT for real world: right click on the folder where you have WordPress on your computer, go to Properties, make sure that Web Anonymous User has both Read AND WRITE access. (The default is to not allow write access.) Hope that helps somebody get started…
