Unfortunately no, it’s an internal-use site for our client… however I managed to get it working by implementing the forms within a sidebar widget so it worked out.

Thanks for the offer to help.

Hi Thomas, I sent a message to you via your website. I ended up setting a number css elements to display:none, since I do not need the navigation functionality for this site, and it appears to have resolved the issue, or at least hid the css conflict that’s occurring.

Thanks for the response.

Thanks for the feedback erfanik, I was able to get the button working with your help. Much appreciated!

It appears a severe case of outdated plugins may have been causing the issue. Updating 16 outdated plugins seems to have resolved the issue. Not sure which one did the trick, just glad to see the issue resolved ??

Thanks again for trying WPyogi, much appreciated.

it’s a custom theme from the ground up, yes using Firebug to identify the code/div that’s causing the issue, but I cannot locate that code in any wordpress file. I’m currently looking through plugins to determine if perhaps one of them is causing the issue.

Thanks for jumping in WPyogi, I’ll follow up if I identify anything.

Unfortunately I cannot, it is not public yet. visitors are redirected to the old site based on IP.

Thanks

Well the host provider of this client is Network Solutions and they apparently force you to install wordpress into a subfolder…. I’ve never experienced this before with another host provider. I walked through the process a little bit, and noticed that there’s a checkbox for “make this install your homepage”…. that must be what’s causing my problem – that was checked when WP was installed and now there’s something forcing it to that subfolder.

good question, I’ll dig a little deeper and post what I find.

Thanks.

…. and it still tries reverting the homepage to the .com/website/ directory… all other pages display correctly at .com/page-name/

hmm, added that and still no joy. tried resaving permalinks after uploading the .htacess file, no joy.

I have that modification currently in place, as written below, but the homepage is currently not found:

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

# END WordPress

making the change above, and changing the permalinks to default, corrected the issue. after reverting them back to my desired style (post name) the homepage is broken again.

Thank you for your continued help to debug this. I greatly appreciate it.

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

</IfModule>

# END WordPress

require(‘./website/wp-blog-header.php’);

yes it is in the root.

WordPress address (URL): https://www.mywebsite.com/website
Site Address (URL): https://www.mywebsite.com

Yes thank you for that article reference I have been looking at it, and I have confirmed that I copied where I needed to copy files and moved where I needed to move…. a little dumbfounded at the moment.

Thanks for the feedback.
