2.6.1 visual editor fix
Sep 9, 2008 Internet, wordpress
Just like 2.6, again I’m having problems with visual editor not showing menu.
Like before, I went to wordpress.org support forum and read it all over again and finally found  solution.
It’s pretty simple and yes, it’s  just a simple cache problem.
Here’s what I do. Follow it step by step kay Micky?
1. Delete wp-admin and wp-includes. upload new ones
2. define language in wp-config : define (’WPLANG’, ‘en’);
3. edit /wp-includes/js/tinymce/tiny_mce_config.php  :’compress’ => true, to ‘compress’ =>false
4. chmod tiny_mce_config.php into 755
5. Lastly , ok this is the best part of all. Â if you’re using firefox, go to tools - clear private data - cache. close Firefox.
6. You now have a fully functional WP 2.6.1 with a working visual editor.
So yeah. Everything revolves around cache. It’s been nice writing this, hope you guys able to fix it

Wordpress 2.5 Permalinks Problems
Apr 5, 2008 Computer, Internet, wordpress
As we all know, wordpress has come out with their latest product aka wordpress 2.5 . Being excited, I upgraded. Little did I know it would cost a lot of traffic LOST!
This is regarding permalinks setting. If before upgrading, your blog has been setup this way;
http://dungun.net/2008/04/05/sample-post/
In 2.5 it will be changed to
http://dungun.net/?p=123
I did not know that and it caused my traffic down to zero. So I changed it back to month/day setting. And what do you know… now permalinks doesn’t work. Just error 404. Now that zero traffic? Makes it 3 days in a roll.
But hey don’t fret. I found a solution to fix it up. All you need to do is create a file called .htaccess .
If you already had it in your wordpress ftp, just chmod it writable 777. If you don’t then create a new notepad. Rename it to new.htaccess and using your ftp program, upload onto your blog directory. Inside, rename new.htaccess into .htaccess . make it writable 777.
your permalinks will work again.

How to Install Wordpress using Direct Admin
Mar 8, 2008 Tutorial
This guide will tell you how to install wordpress using Direct Admin . Direct Admin is another control panel for webhosting. Just like cpanel, except DA is simpler and easier to use.
Enter direct admin and click on Mysql Management.
Now, u’ll see two options. Create new database and Phpmyadmin. Click on create new database. A page will come out asking for priviledge. Choose all priviledge.
Fill the form with whatever name you want. Make sure you remember it well. Example here , we name our database and username as wordpress. Db name and username are usually same. Make sure it’s not something that’s easy to tell.
Now that we’re done. Click on create.
Ok now you need to extract all your wordpress files into your website. I’m using CuteFtp. You can download any free ftp on net like this one here . Download latest wordpress here.
After you’re done uploading. Right click on wp_config_sample.php . Rename it to wp_config.php .. Now , right click and choose edit .
Fill in the form with your dbname , username and password that we have created using direct admin . When you’re done, save it.
