Thanks

I am using 3.0.1. I only have one blog in my wordpress. Any recommendations will be good. Thank you again.

Hello there,

Thanks again for all the feed back. I followed the instructions on the tutorial but I found things different from my back end. I could not find this “delete the blogs.php file from the /wp-content/ folder.” Instead in my wp-content folder I see the following folders: plugins, themes, upgrade, uploads, and index.php. Is this because I am using my wordpress via godaddy admin?

Also, for example I could not find the what the tutorial recommended:

RewriteRule ^(.*/)?files/(.*) wp-content/blogs.php?file=$2 [L]and change it to this:

RewriteRule ^(.*/)?files/(.*) wp-includes/ms-files.php?file=$2 [L]

Instead, see below my .htaccess code:

# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /blog/
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /blog/index.php [L]
</IfModule>

# END WordPress

Can you please advice what I should do? Thank you again so much.

Also note I am using version 3.0.1 and the tutorial is for 3.0. Hope that does not make a difference either.

Thank you Andrea. So since I missed a step, based on where I am currently, following the tutorial instructions will not affect any currently running component of the blog?

Also, can you please shed light on this so I understand a little:

You will also need to add a nonce salt to wp-config.php. You’ll get a warning about it and it will look similar to this:

define( ‘NONCE_SALT’, ‘6xF{&bvT_PAsmbnG<72.dJH>D8R8M!M{~r.U]-~j:rG!g!0(g7hvz)+/h9 IY7Ge’ ); Stuff it in there with your other salts.

Thank you so much.

Hi all. I am having this same problem. Old photos on my site before I upgraded are working fine. But since upgrading to 3.0.1 no images display. I thought it was the theme i chose. but i have switched to more than 2 other themes and image is still not showing when I upload. Is this a .htaccess problem? any help will be greatly appreciated. Many thanks.

thats how the theme operates. I only post an article once.

yes, i did check and the url is the same. and that’s what puzzles me why this is still happening.

That’s exactly what the problem is. The picture is uploaded in the backend but not showing in the front end. I’m not sure why and how to resolve this issue..

Hi Govpatel,

Any ideas in helping me out now that you’ve probably seen the problem I am encountering? Thanks again.

ok i have uploaded and image there… see the link again and see the problem i am getting throughout with this theme https://ibdabo.com/blog/2010/10/06/exclusive-interview-jorge-castillo-corporate-director-at-passport-health-talks-about-rethink-africa-an-event-to-showcase-the-beauty-of-africa-and-raise-funds-for-worthy-causes-2/

Those images were there before I upgraded to the arras theme last weekend. But if you look on the home page, for the interview with Jorge Castillo, you will see what i mean… black image place holder with alt text… that’s how it appears when i attempt uploading images via the arras theme… not sure where the problem is coming from.
Thanks for your help.

Thanks it worked.
