WOOOT!!! Adding the “www” into my blog url fixed my own long-standing preview problem! Thanks!!

Mostly I use Safari 2 but sometimes I use Firefox 1.5. Preview doesn’t work in either one.

Anyone? Nobody having this problem at all? I am having it and another friend is having it. Both of us are hosting on OS X. Maybe it’s something particular to our environment?

I run WP on osx behind a router. If you want 1 on 1 help, feel free to email me at scott at scottfeldstein.net

I’m not sure if it’s related, but shortly after my own upgrade going to my index page only resulted in a totally blank page. Nothing to see in the “view source” either. Totally blank. I manually typed in the path to the login page and managed to log in. I then re-selected my theme and bang, my site was there again. I believe I was using the slashdot theme at the time.

To be clear: I have had no server crash or anything like that. All I did was upgrade to WP 2.0.

I have had similar problems with post preview not working just as described above. I renaming the cache folder to “oldcache” and that didn’t help. WordPress generated a new cache folder, but the problem remained.

Note: my ACTUAL gmt offset should be (and is, in wp interface) -6 Central time.

I’m dying to know myself! I primarily want to use this so I can blog from my cell phone. I have worked around the issue by the following code change in wp-mail.php:
// original line of code, post by phone + 1 hour
// $time_difference = get_settings(‘gmt_offset’);
// makes post-by-email work, but phone is + 2 hours
// $time_difference = -5;
// makes post-by-phone work but email is -2 hours
$time_difference = -7;
WARNING: You’re the worst kind of idiot if you insert any code I wrote for anything. You have been warned.
Although, my post-by-phone messages are coming out with the correct date now, just not the post-by-email ones.

Fixed it, yo. Thanks.

This is EXACTLY what all my attempts at post-by-email look like. I think I’m going to try commenting out that line.

It didn’t work great for me. The email would get posted but it a) wouldn’t delete the email and b) would put a big php error where the category should be displayed.

Hey, nobody caught it but I saw it two days after posting this – there’s a missing “/” at the beginning of one of the DocumentRoot paths. Doh! Anyway everything works now. Thanks for caring ??

Here is the relevant bit from my httpd.conf file. Note: I have all this commented now so I can continue to use the one primary site.
#NameVirtualHost *:80
#<VirtualHost *:80>
#ServerName scottfeldstein.net
#ServerAlias https://www.scottfeldstein.net
#DocumentRoot Library/WebServer/Documents/blog/
#</VirtualHost>
#<VirtualHost *:80>
#ServerName paigefeldstein.net
#ServerAlias https://www.paigefeldstein.net
#DocumentRoot /Library/WebServer/Documents/paige/
#</VirtualHost>
Do you think it’s a huge mistake to have the “paige” directory (the root of one of the virtual hosts) under the main document root of the sever?

Uh, so how do you fix it??
