Anyone have any trouble like this? Will switching out the xmlrpc.php from WP2.7 with xmlrpc.php from WP 2.5RC-3 cause any trouble?

thanks

@ryan — I have sent the requested information to the email address you provided in the other topic link. Let me know what else, if anything, I need to do.

@ryan — I’ve been out of town and am leaving again tomorrow for a few days. I will provide the info you requested when I return.

@angsuman — Thanks for this link. Actually this is the link that got me re-started on trying to get permalinks working on my site again. I tried a few times in the past and gave up. This link helped rekindle my interest in getting it working again. I have tried the examples and still receive the 404 error message.

@macmanx — Thanks for the suggestions but I guess why I am so frustrated is that my understanding is even without access to the .htaccess file I still should be able to use the /index/ prefix on the permalinks and get it to work but it doesn’t work with the prefix. I get a 404 error message with the prefix.

So there is no way to get WP1.5.2 to work with the /index/ prefix unless I change providers and use the .htaccess file?

@dianev — I have checked the Codex and I can not get permalinks to work like they should. If I set the permalinks to /index.php/%year%/%monthnum%/úy%/%postname%/ I get my 404 error page.

@schestowitz — I had to concede since when I have permalinks active no one can get to my site except for the 404 error page.

WP1.5.2 for some reason is not/can not understand to use the index.php file.

Any suggestions?

Ok. Maybe I fixed it myself with this change in the code.
I changed
"<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; ?>">
in the searchform.php to
<form method="get" id="searchform" action="<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>">
It looks like it’s working to me. My question is would making this change effect anything else? Cause any problems in the future?

Thanks for the replies so far.

@mylagoon here is my searchform.php

<form method="get" id="searchform" action="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; ?>">
<div><input type="text" value="<?php echo wp_specialchars($s, 1); ?>" name="s" id="s" />
</div>
</form>'
Is the code “<?php echo $_SERVER[‘PHP_SELF’]; ?>”>` causing the problem and if so what I can I use to fix it?

thanks

Thanks for the quick response. I made the changes you suggested and still got the same result. So I used the real path to my blog. The post method works (sorta) now but does not post the vote as a result. Also if you click on the “Poll Archives” the page loads ok but my sidebar is too low. Check it out at https://www.blankmindblog.com .

I installed the plugin but ran into a problem. I have a domain pointer pointed at my WP directory. When you vote the plugin looks up https://www.blog2.com. My directory for WP is located in /blog2. Is there a way to hard code the path of my site into the plugin? My site is https://www.blankmindblog.com

thanks

Hello,

I’m using netfirms and used the supplied code to make the previous and next links to work on my blog. However, when you move through the next and previous pages my photos do not load. Any help with this?

thanks
