more Wordpress upgrade shenanigans
This afternoon I noticed that updates to my blog feed were not appearing in NetNewsWire, an app I use more and more. So I cruised my blog in both Safari and Firefox and realized that when I clicked on the RSS button in each browser’s address window that my feed wasn’t working. Uh oh. First thing I did was to check my Wordpress Dashboard and Options. Nothing was obvious to this non-code writer so I exited the admin panel and started clicking through my blog to see if anything else was fubar.
I found that comments weren’t working either though old posts did list the actual number of comments listed at the top of each post.
It was time to reach Haller. He quickly deduced that he needed to:
- create an .htaccess file
- make it writable by the server
- and then update the permalink structure
I’m not quite sure yet what most of that means but me blog is back in business. As always, thanks e. See you Tuesday night.
