Well, I just said “forget it”…and hired a technical wizard to restore the old version from the backups…as I was tired of it.

He did mention that it seemed to be a problem with the “login script”…whatever that’s worth.

Sheesh.

I will leave this as “unresolved” for you ZmoneyENT ??

Oh yeah…by the way I am completely stuck at this point…and I will patiently wait for the experts to reply on this one.

Now…it redirects again.

If you type in https://www.mydomain.com/blog , it removes the /blog and redirects to my main site https://www.mydomain.com

No more white screen…but the same redirecting problem.

All I did in the very beginning of today was use WordPress Automatic Upgrade plugin to upgrade this blog from v2.3.3 to the current one.

Then…the problems identified in this thread began.

Alright…

Now…after reading some .htaccess posts in the forum here…I have altered my .htaccess file. After adjusting this, https://www.mydomain.com/blog now does NOT redirect any more to the main domain https://www.mydomain.com/

Instead, now the theme does not show, I have a “white screen” showing.

I uploaded the following .htaccess to my host:

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

# END WordPress

Do I need to make further mods?

moshu,

I should also let you know that I did try to change the permalink structure to a custom structure…which to my understanding would update the .htaccess file…and nothing changed.

Still have the redirect issue described above.

Nope…I didn’t personally overwrite the .htaccess…and I used the WP Automatic Upgrade plugin to do the job.

The two url values are https://www.mysite.com/blog and https://www.mysite.com/blog in both fields.

Or…you could have copied and pasted the answer right here…and doubled the effectiveness of finding this answer whooami ??

There are SOOOO many posts here…the search function doesn’t find everything very easily.
