Well, I know it's there... I've seen the file. That, of course, doesn't mean you can access it... :shrug: I'll check into it and get back to you.
hmmm... I have no trouble getting to it to read and the behind-the-scenes stuff looks ok given a cursory glance. What do you do that fails and what's the failure you get.
If I try 'New Blogs' from the 'Home' page here, there are none listed. The 'Blogs' (old blogs) seems to be being used as a poor man's Forum.
If I click on the following bookmarked link:
http://straightrazorpalace.com/inthedeepend/
I get the following error:
WordPress
Error establishing a database connection
This either means that the username and password information in your wp-config.php file is incorrect or we can't contact the database server at localhost. This could mean your host's database server is down.
* Are you sure you have the correct username and password?
* Are you sure that you have typed the correct hostname?
* Are you sure that the database server is running?
If you're unsure what these terms mean you should probably contact your host. If you still need help you can always visit the WordPress Support Forums.

ahhh... I see said the blind man. :o
Sorry X :bow.
I've fixed part of the problem, and am working on the remainder. When we moved to the new host the prefix on the database server name changed and the software that copied the database cleverly added some apostrophes to some fields that screws up some links. That ripples through system requiring several dozen configuration statements and database fields to be corrected. All we have to do is find them all :w
ok... I think I've got it. (and now that I know how it works, I think I can get it again :roflmao)
New Blogs should be up and running! :tu
(please let me know if there's still a problem... :gth)
Thanks Joe. Sorry to keep at it, but I tried to upload and got this:
It doesn't look like you can use the file upload feature at this time because the directory you have specified (/home/soljzjqc/public_html/inthedeepend/wp-content) doesn't appear to be writable by WordPress. Check the permissions on the directory and for typos.
Can you help there too?
Also ... I thought you were going to make the New Blogs the Blogs and eliminate the old Blogs. 'Sup wit dat?

once more time into the breech...
:gth
I'll work on it.
Hey X.. Clear your cookies, cache, and let me know if you still have the issue tomorrow.

Wait until the morning though, I think it might be a cache thing..
Basically, it's telling you that the path is incorrect, which as you typed it is.. That's the path for the old site..
However, that path isn't hardcoded into the files. It's found dynamically, which means it should update itself.. So let's give it until the morning, and if it doesn't work then, let me know..
