My problem was ultimately solved by the following:
a) Renaming the ‘old’ homepage from my old website to a different name (ie. from index.html to index_old.html)
b) Deleting the line of code:
DirectoryIndex index.php index.html index.htm
from the .htaccess file in the foot directory
This meant that my new WordPress site worked okay with the WordPress homepage and pages/posts showing as required.
In terms of the redirection, I got this to work by using the following code in the .htaccess file:
Redirect 301 /html/congress_tarts.html http://www.cookeryskills.com/recipes/cake-and-pastry-recipes/congress-tarts/
Thanks
JeremyForum: Plugins
In reply to: [Youtube shortcode] [Plugin: Youtube shortcode] Implement wmode=transparent?Hi. I am very new to WordPress so am finding my way round.
I have activated the YouTube shortcode plugin okay. When you say “Place <?php echo do_shortcode(‘[youtube_sc url=any_youtube_video_url]’); ?>” in your templates, can you please explain which of the template files this should go in? I am using a theme downloaded from WordPress.
Can you also give an example of the text you would use in the post entry when embedding a YouTube video? I am simply wanting to embed from YouTube and specify what the height and width of the video is.
Many thanks!
