Enabling Sending Referrers.

Amiantos, after you put the proper value in with phpmyadmin, logout of it, then back in, and see if it’s still set properly.

Well there goes my big hope that I found the problem.

I did Route 1 a day or so ago. I guess I will try Route 2 tonight when I feel able, going to go eat something and see a movie now.

Thanks for your help, guys, regardless of what a smart ass I am for no reason at all. WP is still the best there is and I’ll probably never leave it, regardless of any problems. If it comes down to it, I’ll just overwrite my current theme files so that I can use the new theme when I finish it.

In and out of phpmyadmin or out of WP?

I assume you mean WP.

Logged out of WP, set value, checked to make sure it suck in the database, relogged in to WP, checked value, it’s reset.

hmmmmmm…. two more things (both quick and easy to try)

1) in phpMyAdmin, when you enter your address into siteurl, escape the slash characters with backslashes (http:\/\/mydomain.com) – that might force the issue. can’t break it any worse than it is already *shrug* Then try it with two backslashes if it doesn’t work – http:\\/\\/mydomain.com

2) delete or rename the .htaccess file and try to make it work (do the phpmyadmin thing immediately beforehand though, so WP doesn’t have a chance to mess with it)

Jose, the 2nd option above might work for you too.

And if not, nothing lost but the minute or two it’ll take ??

no, i meant log in and out of phpmyadmin – check it there before blaming WP for it ??

1) Did this, caused it to break WP, would try redirecting to ‘ihavebeenfloated.org’ without the http, so it couldn’t even let me re-log in, kind of funny. so technically I guess that option stuck, but only because WP couldn’t figure out how to let me access it.

2) HOLY CRAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

THIS WORKED!!!

RustyIndy, YOU ARE A GOD.

*head explodes*

If you have a paypal account I will send you $10, because you deserve to be paid for that.

Spiffy ??

Your host has “Virtual Directory Support” set to disabled. Normally, this wouldn’t be a problem (at least, it isn’t supposed to be), but somewhere in the chain it does occasionally goof things up.

I have no idea why it would be rewriting what you enter into the database though…. that’s a little weird even by my experience.

Glad it worked for you ?? Hope it works for Jose too, and I do have a paypal account, but I ain’t telling you what it is ?? But thanks anyways ??

RustyIndy – wow, complete star !

It was last-ditch, y’know ?? My next recommendation was going to be finding a new host ?? I don’t deal with Linux much these days (too many clients using Winblows), but I have read stuff about htaccess messing with things in weird ways under certain configurations. Figured it certainly wouldn’t hurt to try bypassing it ??

RustIndy, ::thumbs up:: great work!

mmm… i not have any .htaccess in /html or /html/wpress. My only .htaccess is in the directory /stats…

macmanx: thanks ?? mostly luck though, i was really dredging the ram here to come up with that.

jose: i recommend a new host

just kidding ?? sort of….

Try that other thing i suggested earlier – backup your wordpress folder, then delete the /wp-include and /wp-admin folders, delete the wp-settings.php file, then re-upload them from the original WordPress file. Let us know if it works

I deleted all the installtion WP files except the /wp-config.php, and re-upload from the original WordPress. The problem persist.
Well, i only have five days with the WordPress. I have two solutions:
a- change to other weblog
b- change my provider host.

And my decission is… Tomorrow I start the change to a new provider host !!! Many thanks to all !!!
