ok moshu, so what youre saying is that for now until I go live to keep both my URI’s pointed to the same place?
Wordpress Address (URI): https://mysite.com/wp
Blog Address (URI): https://mysite.com/wp

any ideas then how I can get my blog going when the index is in the root? I need to keep index.html there for the splash.
would it be alot of work to point it to the folder where wp is and then point it to the root directory to go live?

hmm well would you recommend that I wipe out the tables on that blog and reinstall since I cant login?
then should I name it something different like “dev.php” then change it when the site goes live?

hey moshu thanks for the pointer, I tried searching the logins but didnt do one for that….
unfortunately the PHPmyadmin bit doesnt fix my problem.
looking at my wp_options table the site url is https://mysite.com/wp
this is of course my wordpress directory.. since I cant login I cant check my options but I do know that I have my url’s set up like this:
Wordpress Address (URI): https://mysite.com/wp
Blog Address (URI): https://mysite.com/index.php
(index.php I have because the site is still in DEV, keeping the index.html splash page intact)
Ive tried the myadmin bit, have cleared out all cookies and wiped cache and tried logging in with diff browsers and still get the redirect.
Comparing the wp_options table on the one blog that I can login to still the settings are the same (ie they all have wp_options pointing to the wp directory)
fyi, in my earlier post I explain that I have 3 blogs installed on one DB, mainwp, featureswp, afdwp

dropped the tables on the main blog and re-installed fresh
logged into it with both computers using the numeric generated password. once logged in I set my blog url in options and once that was set I hit the log out button to test it and to try logging back on with both computers. when I hit the logout it didnt leave the options screen. So, I then decided to choose a new password and entered it and saved, and it took me right to the logout screen again but this time its stuck on “session expired” and I cant login on either computer…
ugh.

I should say that I changed the passwords on the two blogs that were giving the redirects, I left “features” the same as its working on both computers.

well im now locked out of both blogs on both computers (features blog is still ok)
I went and had dinner and came back and decided I would try to change the password on one of them in case having all the blogs with the same one was doing it, well it let me change it then went right to the login page saying my session timed out in bold read…
so now both computers and both blogs give me redirects on login…
it is recognizing the new passwords that I set tho, but it just gives me the redirect..

rboren..
YOU ROCK…. thanks so much for that..
Ive got a bit of a problem now with the comments on that page.. is there a way to get comments to function on that index that I have the page on? If i click the comment link at the bottom of the entry it takes me to the wp index. the comment link is formatted like so:
https://mysite.com/features/wp/this-is-mypage/#comments
when you click on it, it takes you to the wp index, (and it also doesnt display the comment post form just the comments(0) link)
rather than giving you the comment post form under the page on the index I have it on: ie https://mysite.com/features/01/index.php
Ive tried setting the blog address in wp to:
https://mysite.com/features/01
which then makes my comment link on the page to:
https://mysite.com/features/01/this-is-mypage/#comments
and that when clicked returns a 404…
the closest ive come to getting the comments to work is to make my “page” into a regular wp entry and then setting the variable at the top of my 01 index to:
<?php
/* Don't remove this line. */
$blog = 1;
if (!isset($p)) {
$p = "4";
}
require('../wp/wp-blog-header.php');
?>
which puts the comment post form under the entry, but once you hit “say it” you are brought away from my 01 directory index and over to the wp one again:
https://mysite.com/features/wp/this-is-mypage
am I missing something simple?
thanks!
