    In reply to: Looking for Sitemap Plugin

    I’m looking for something like that too. It might not even require a plugin, I suppose. My intent is to have a static page which lists all of the posts on the site. Sorted by category would be an added bonus…

    <<If the .htaccess file is not writable, WP shows the code at the bottom of the permalinks panel in admin after clicking the update options.>>

    I agree that it should. Setting the files permissions to 600 doesn’t even have this effect. Actually, when I do that it seems to annoy the web server itself. ??

    I’ve tried deleting the file and that isn’t having the desired result either.

    When the file is there, if I go to Manage -> Files, I can edit the file there. So I have confirmation that WP can write to it. But the Permalinks option won’t write to it and doesn’t give me the code, which I would normally expect if it detected it had a problem accessing the file.

    I appreciate the feedback.

    P.S. I also tried deleting the entire install directory and uploading a fresh install of 1.5.2. I reattached to the database and got the same results.

    Does anyone have a suggestion on this? I got TSH to fix the 500 error, but WP will still not write changes to the file. If it would just show me what the additions to the .htaccess file are, I would just paste them in.

    Actually, I’ve never done with with TSH…so I went to Manage -> Files and clicked on .htaccess there. I got an internal server error. Perhaps they don’t allow me to leave a file with permissions like 666.

    The question remains though…how do I get WP to tell me what the rewrite rules should be so I can edit the file manually? I just want to know what the block of rules are so I can paste them in.

    The .htaccess file is in the root of the WP installation. Of course, if it wasn’t I should get the info message at the bottom of the Permalinks window saying “If your .htaccess was writable we could change it.”

    My host is ThirdSphereHosting. This is a new installation, but I’ve done several of these without error. This is usually a cookie cutter process for me.

    Thanks,
    Dave
