I have tested with the old code added in, and also tested with remarking out the AddHandler line in the new htaccess file.
I’m really at a loss here. This account is for a Church and it is quickly approaching Easter. Not happy!
New .htaccess file:
# Use PHP5CGI as default
AddHandler fcgid-script .php
# BEGIN WordPress
# END WordPress
Old .htaccess file:
# 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
Obviously the WordPress stuff is missing from the new htaccess file. I asked the host about it and he said that those were already the default settings so they didn’t need to be in the htaccess file, that is why they deleted them…to make things load faster… all greek to me.
Thanks, I was really banging my head against the keyboard there for a minute. The GitHub link saved me too!
