aah, a bloginfo function! thank you, this is exactly what i meant, I’ll test this out tomorrow,

Thank you both so much!

Hi, I’m trying to figure out how to reference “base_url” or my ‘wordpress site’ when i link to things. For instance, lets say I want to write a link in a blog post that’s:

https://mysite.com/tags/tech

if i change my domain to newsite.com, that link^ will break

a solution (i hoped) would be:

<?php $BASE_URL$ php?>/tags/tech

[where $BASE_URL$ is simply a variable refencing the wordpress configuration setting that holds the invormation to “blog_url” and “site_url” in the settings pane]

thanks in advance!! ??

oh wow, awesome whooami! thanks. ??

hey sorry, must’ve had email notifications turned off for this forum.

um, i’m trying to figure out how I can dynamically display the URL of my website from inside of a post. specifically, I don’t want to manually type into my post <a href="www.site.com">...

because I may change my domain, at which point the link ^ above would no longer be correct. I know that one solution would be to have a relative link like <a href="/">... which would be like my pointing to the root of the site, but that won’t solve my problem this time.

thanks again for any help

for anyone coming along:

I found that in moving my files, the .htaccess file wasn’t moved along too. so moving it back in, and making sure it has at least 644 for permissions fixed the problem immediately.

a rewrite application? can anyone explain this? I’m having the same exact issue.

Nevermind! I figured it out. I had Shutter Reloaded plugin activated at the same time (left overs from previous attempts of mine to put something together on my site).

Shutter Reloaded was placing working ontop of NextGen Gallery, and placing images ontop of what was already loaded lightbox style.

Hope this helps anyone with a similar silly mistake.

Nice! I just found that, that’s awesome!

Thanks! I was looking for this plugin too!

Oh, well I just fixed my similar issue. For anyone who finds this post, here’s what happened with me (not that I understand how) :

I was switching between themes and when I came back to my old theme my “blog” link was bringing me to “index of /blog” page. The problem was, that I did not have an actual directory named “blog” (or so I shouldn’t have), I only had a static page called “blog” which WP used as my Posts Front page.

Somehow, when switching between themes, an empty “blog” directory was created directly under my “public_html” directory. My browser was recognizing that as priority, and leading me their. I deleted that empty “blog” directory, and the old WP setting of “Blog for posts front page” was put back into functionality.

Hope this helps

how did you fix this problem???

Thanks!

Thanks a lot! I figured out how to do it with this post’s help. Mine looked different, so for anyone else using this thread as resolution:

what I had to delete looked like this:

<span class=”date”><?php the_modified_time(__(‘F jS, Y’, ‘inove’)); ?></span>

I have the same question… and this post was 10 months old, hmm…. ?

@mores:
Awsome! Thanks a lot, this is just what I needed!
