Wordpress 2.7: Permalinks don’t work
by Edwin on Mar.10, 2009, under Blogging
“Why do my permalinks not work?” I asked myself in one of my first postings, actually just after I had figured out what they were. Somehow the problem got solved and I forgot all about it. The other day I got bussy on another website, set the permalink settings, and the very same problem occurred. Vloek!
As it appears, it’s all about the htaccess file.
It really needs the line:
RewriteEngine On
I copied the htAccess file from a proper working installation (root directory of your installation), and yes, a bit later it was working!
Proper functioning htaccess file!
Cheers

You do not have permission to preview drafts
by Edwin on Feb.12, 2009, under Blogging
Vloek! Before publishing I just wanted to see what it looked like and there I pressed the Preview button. Error message: You do not have permission to preview drafts. (I am using WP 2.7.1 and MySQL 5)
The last change I had made to the system was changing the blog url path, because I wanted the website to say www.notgeeky.com and not notgeeky.com.
Blog Address
The preview mode still prefers the old address though. So by taking away the www. (on the url with the error message) you can still see your preview.
Update:
It looks like it might be something else. Just a couple of minutes I tried to reproduce the problem in Internet Explorer (I normally use FireFox), and everything worked just fine!
So perhaps it’s a browser related issue…
[Update]
Note: sometimes it gives a different error message:
Sorry, but you are looking for something that isn’t here. You can search again by using this form…
But the cure (that is temp fix) is still the same.
