maybe we need to log in with our wordpress.com password/user name?
logado,I tried that, didn’t work for me, I added your line of code to the top of footer.php should it go somewhere else. Would love to have a solution.

In reply to: bbclone w/ WordPress 2Thanks for the code. I’d moved my blog to a new host, and needed to install a stats program.
I found this post while searching for how best to edit code, it works, thanks. As to where we put the code, we added it to template-loader.php in the wp-includes folder.
So I didn’t forget how, had help, I wrote down the steps on a blog post adding bbclone to wordpress.

In reply to: WP on Windows serverI’m on IIS.
When I change the permalinks it gives me the almost pretty options. I get the “Permalink structure updated”. The links are all changed to the index.php/. . . but I get a 404 error.
If I paste the ?p=4 type link into the browser, it goes to the page.
Not familar with IIS, guessing it has to do with server settings not wordpress directly. Suggestions?
Thanks!

In reply to: WP on Windows serverExcept they aren’t working, the links are there where they should be, but they don’t go anywhere.
No .htaccess.txt file could that be the problem? heard somewhere windows doesn’t use htaccess but I see from reading it can be used.
So the post titles, etc are renamed, but the pages they go to don’t know that their name has been changed.
I’m learning how to use this windows server, servers in general hazy to me. Will try different options, using the 404 page to redirect or the plugin look interesting.
Thanks!

In reply to: WP on Windows serverThanks, I’d found that page but not wasn’t sure what to do.
Under Options, permalinks it did show links with index.php, yet when I tried that option, I got:
The system cannot find the file specified on Firefox and http 404 on IE
Yikes! Means it isn’t pulling up the 404 error page, definitely need to find a way to fix that.
Is that how you’d set the almost pretty permalinks?
I’ll scroll down some more and study the IIS options.

In reply to: WP on Windows serverok, changed the default page to index.php for the directory (folder) with wordpress, rest of the website uses index.asp
WordPress up and running, now to get the permalinks prettier

In reply to: Initial LoginOnce I set up a blog, wordpress emails me a password for the admin (username) If lost you can request that a new password be emailed.
Not the MySQL password/username.
