well, what do you know!!

thanks a lot, deuced!! Apparently, i have Advanced-Admin-Menus turned on… ??

thanks!!

I am actually trying to configure All-in-One-SEO, and it says in the readme.txt file:

1. Visit your SEO options (*Options – All in One SEO*) for WordPress 2.3.x, (*Settings – All in One SEO*) for WordPress 2.5.x

So, i went to Settings, I only found this:

click me

I dunno if i bungled up the installation, but I dont think so.

has this been solved already?? i didn’t see any problem, except for the fact that your ad just below the header image is spilling over the right sidebar…

can you provide the site so that we can take a look, please?

hey ryan… this is a fresh install, ain’t it??

ok, the 1st thing you try to establish is if you have the correct account details for the database connection… normally [not sure with 1and1 though], cPanel appends your username followed by an underscore to your MySQL username, and that might be where the problem is…

when upgrading to 2.1, have you deactivated all plugins that you have?? normally, that’s what happens if you still have a plugin or two activated when upgrading…

yes, that using wordpress without mail() is still possible…

ok, now that i had my coffee, i finally got what the problem with my installation was…

anyway, i created a new db, user and password, and my installation is now here:

https://www.haravata.com/wordpress/

for the admin page:

https://www.haravata.com/wordpress/wp-admin/

username: admin
password: password

you can actually try this out for a little while, or until i remember to delete this… ??

i don’t see any problems with the software, nor have i experienced the same problems you have… probably, it is now time to look at your server??

SirDaniel, i am not sure, but probably, the problem was the software you downloaded [not from]… i downloaded the same you did, tried to install it, copied my own working wp-config, tried to go to wp-admin, but it is still a no go…

you can try it out for yourself here:

https://haravata.com/wordpress/wp-admin

have you tried to install the one from www.remarpro.com?? can you please try that one out and see if you still have those problems?? if the same still happens, then i would look at the server… ??

now it is working fine, too… a minute ago, it just gave me the error message even after several refresh… sheesshhh… ??

@samboll

the link you gave is showing a “Could not connect to remote server” error…

1. can you flush your cache and try again??

2. or since this is a new install, can you try re-installing and see if that still happens??

3. if it happens again, have you downloaded it from wprdpress.org? or used fantastico??

have you set “Store uploads in this folder” from Options –> Miscellaneous??

if you haven’t set it, then set the permission of the directory 777

do you have access to your database through phpMyAdmin?? if you have, follow the following:

1. assuming that you didn’t change anything during install, select wp_users on left panel, and once the structure shows at the right panel, select Browse from the top.

2. after selecting Browse, and the contents of the table appears, select [or click] the pencil to edit your record…

3. delete the contents of user_pass and type in a new password, not forgetting to select MD5 under Function.

4. click Go

that should let you log in to your wp-admin now using your old username and your new password…

your site is down??
