Yes, I have the same question. I also tried / and leaving it blank as well as putting in the complete URL and none works.

I agree. The instructions for this plugin are awful.

Sorry, the last post was from the htaccess that was put in my root. The code that was put in my htaccess file in my directory (/travelogue/) is:

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

# END WordPress

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

# END WordPress

This is the code that WordPress automatically put in the htaccess file when I reset my blog address. For some reason it’s not redirecting the former blog homepage.

If you type in the former address of the categories into your browser (which have the /travelogue/ directory in the url) it won’t redirect. WordPress has taken care of the “in-system” links. The ones I want to redirect are all the links to category pages that I’ve inserted manually into the pages myself over the past 7 years.

Also, my main worry is why the old homepage is not redirecting, as it has tons of links pointing at it.

Because I’ve moved this site in a new direction and would like to terminate the previous homepage in the root and substitute it for the blog’s homepage. I just want to switch the address for the blog’s homepage to the root.

Thanks Denis for responding.

I understand that I can put up a 301 redirect, but I would really prefer to keep the urls for the posts the same. Do you know any way to do this?

Hello? Does anybody know anything about this? I can’t be the first person who wanted to have their homepage of their blog appear in the root and the posts in a directory. Even someone saying, “Hey, this is not possible” would be good here.

Thanks for the help, but this is not the problem. It is already checked to allow everyone to comment, and the comments have worked on this site for almost a year. Just recently it stopped functioning.

Thanks,

Wade

I have just talked to the tech support at my hosting company for over an hour this morning about this, and they say they can’t do anything.

No clue.

Funny that the site works fine one day and the next it doesn’t.

Thanks for these links, I really appreciate your help!

Thanks for the response. I think you could be on to something. My ISP has been doing some fiddling with my files lately — they say that I am using up to much of the server resources on a VPS. We have been having other similar issues, and when I call my host their tech people can fix them, but, mysteriously, nobody can tell me why things are glitching.

I was just wondering if anybody else has had some similar problems.

Thank you for your help.

Walk Slow,

What is really funny is that I received email notification of receiving comments two hours ago. So I know that the database was working fine then, and I have not even logged into the site since.

Does anybody know what could have happened?

Thanks,

Wade

Hello,

Thanks for the reply. I wanted to do this because my MU installation is a part of a larger site that uses www. I wanted it all to be contiguous.

But it is not a big issue, would rather not mess with it.

Thanks,

Wade

My site is turning up the same thing?

Has anyone come up with a way to fix it?

Thanks
