Hello jwinter66, do I edit the index.php file in word? If so where do I add these items? You also mention to change the site url. Would I change this in the control panel somewhere on the 1and1 site? Right now I have the home directory at the root.

sorry, I meant to reverse that quoting.

Have you checked to make sure the nameservers you are using for the domain name are the ones provided by 1and1? Typically, when you transfer a domain it does not update the nameservers. You may have to update the nameservers…

I think you are correct, I used the 1and1 control panel to make it my nameserver instead of 1and1 name server. I also added 2 subdomains ns1 and ns2. It said to wait up to 72 hours. Now when I go to the site it says “server not found” instead of the parking page. I cant even access the wordpress login for my site. Ftp upload does not even work anymore. Error comes up with “EAI_NODATA – No address associated with nodename” in my ftp window. I can really only access the 1and1 control panel. Thanks for your help.

Hi Tim S, I’ve had the domain name from 1and1 for a couple of years and just sat on it. A few months ago I purchased the hosting through 1and1. Through the 1and1 control panel I linked them together. It took about a day but the status of the domain changed from ‘transferring’ to ‘ready’. I installed through filezilla to the root directory. The only additional folder I saw on there was the log folder. My domain is https://www.ireviewshirts.com. You will see when you go there it says ‘This domain name has just been registered.’

thanks for your help!

Hi Tim, I tried that but still nothing. Default theme set to Twentyten, all plugins off. I have never been able to see my site from the start so when I began it was already at the default settings with everything turned off. Its very strange and makes me think there is a setting within 1and1 that needs to be changed.
