I guess you can also choose not to run php-cgi. In Dreamhost, you do this by going to Domains -> Web -> Edit.

My problem has been solved, thanks to BigJibby. You need to add this line to the top of your wp-config file:
$_SERVER[‘SCRIPT_NAME’] = $_SERVER[‘SCRIPT_URL’];
Put that right above where it says:
// ** MySQL settings ** //
And you’re all set, I guess.

i’m having a problem that might be related: when i use the nightlies or whatever, my blog url is getting changed from /wordpress to /cgi-system. i’m on dreamhost, which runs cgi-php as the default, and i’ve tried a bunch of stuff. it seems that when i try to log in, my blog url gets changed. any ideas?

very nice

I use dreamhost and I loves it much.

1. Good news!
First the good news: The tests are in and all DreamHost customers have
24 hours to live! The bad news is I meant to send this newsletter out
yesterday. HA! (I guess the good news is if you’re reading this the
tests were off by a day.)
The other GOOD news is we’ve just added a new great free “goodie” for
everybody to gobble up. Now you can install WordPress, the fast, full-
featured, stable, low-carb, easy-to-use, free, open source weblog
software on any fully-hosted DreamHost domain with just one click here:

Wordpress is pretty much just like Movable Type, which a lot of you may
be familiar with.. in fact, once you’ve installed it you can even
convert a Movable Type blog (or a bunch of other types) over to it
pretty easily by following the instructions you get emailed!
Why didn’t we make it so you could just install Movable Type itself
with
one click instead? Somewhat because Movable Type is a commercial
product,
and they would require us to do some sort of weird registration for all
our users with them in order to even install the free version. Also,
WordPress doesn’t require “rebuilding” your blog every time you
publish.
Mostly though, installing WordPress was eleven times easier for us.

why not have two?

This site has a free image mapper program that is easy to use.

small question: why isn’t the /wp-content/themes/ directory there (and empty) by default? having the folder in there would save this little bit of confusion.

podz, did you figure out how to get it to say when a page was ‘last updated’ as opposed to ‘created’?

akb, my links are pointing to the correct location…
moshu, I still think having wp_list_pages on the default is going to save a lot of questions just like mine. Also, the problem of having too many pages will come _after_ the problem of not having any links at all. As for the link manager, I don’t think that’s for linking to your _own_ site.

I not saying WP should read my mind! I’m saying why have two steps?
1. User goes to admin ‘pages’ interface, makes page.
2. User goes to index.php and adds link to page.
That’s very nice, because you can update your ‘pages’ from the admin interface, but why not have the links be generated like the categories link? The way it is now, you’re going to get a lot of people (just like me) saying “where are my ‘pages’ that I made in the “manage->pages” section?” So you’re going to say, well, you made the pages, but now you have to go make the links for them.
Maybe it doesn’t seem like a big deal, but the way I’d want to use them, it does. If I want to use WP1.3 as a CMS with ‘pages’ and sub-pages, I can’t have users simply ‘add’ a new ‘page’ through the admin interface. They way it is now, I’d have to say ‘add’ your ‘page’ and then ‘make the link’. For me, sure, that’s easy. For somebody else?
Imagine: go to presentation -> Other files -> Main Index -> then root through the index.php file until you find the unordered list I made. What’s an unordered list? Well… Maybe I wouldn’t want users to mess with the index.php file because they might break something, now my users can’t make ‘pages’ anymore – well… they can, but they won’t be able to find them… because there aren’t links anywhere.
Take, for example, two of the first people (I think) to use this feature:
https://boren.nu/
and
https://dougal.gunters.org/
I don’t know what the header would be called, but Ryan doesn’t even have a header…
It seems very odd not to have the links made for you automatically, but maybe I’m totally crazy.

Hmm. I just assumed it would list the pages under a heading called ‘pages’ or something, like the categories list. I don’t understand why this wouldn’t be a feature of ‘pages’… I mean, wouldn’t you rather just have the pages you add show up on the index automatically? If this isn’t planned, perhaps I could try to make a plugin for it, although I have no idea how to go about that ?? If anybody sees this and has a clue, please lend me a clue.

i’m not seeing my ‘pages’ show up like my ‘categories’ on the navigation menu. do i have to change the index or something? i tried updating my permalink structure. basically… i have /about/ and /about/me/ working, but they don’t show up on the index page.

I think you meant to send me here?
