New user alert! (and I'm 0 for 2 so far today....) I'm protecting a Word Press blog in a /members directory. I read the posts here and it was suggested that I delete my Word Press .htaccess file and let aMember put its own in -- which I did. And it worked. Here's the problem: Now when I click on any page inside my blog, they are all redirecting to my home page of my site. "www.sitename.com". Not good! I know this must have to do with taking out the Word Press .htaccess file, and evidently, I need this! Suggestions anyone? Grrr. Stuck again! How do I get Word Press to still operate like Word Press. I guess these .htaccess's do not play nice with each other? Lauren
Create a new product in amember called admin, and give it admin privileges in wordpress. Then add a new user in amember and assign this product to them. This should let you in and give you a user account in wordpress to post articles etc.. David Edit- just reread, ah, sounds like you have some sort of SEO plugin? Try turning this off?
Hi David, Wow, you're super helpful! You're 2 for 2 helping me today! My WP blog is Semiologic Pro v.5.5 RC-3. It comes with a ton of plug-ins already enabled, but there is one called Semiologic SEO. I deactivated it, but the site is still redirecting all blog pages to the root url (not the membership site, but the main page of my public site). I'm at a loss. Any help is appreciated. Lauren Edit: I thought this might be helpful. The Word Press .htaccess contained this: # BEGIN WordPress <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine On RewriteBase /members/ RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule . /members/index.php [L] </IfModule> # END WordPress AuthUserFile "/home/sitename/.htpasswds/public_html/members/passwd" I deleted that one one and replaced with Amember's automatic one that contains this: ########### AMEMBER START ##################### Options +FollowSymLinks RewriteEngine On ## allow access for any active subscription RewriteCond %{HTTP_COOKIE} amember_nr=([a-zA-Z0-9]+) RewriteCond /home/sitename/public_html/amember/data/new_rewrite/%1 -f RewriteRule ^(.*)$ - [L] ## if user is not authorized, redirect to login page # BrowserMatch "MSIE" force-no-vary RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} (.+) RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.sitename.com/amember/plugins/protect/new_rewrite/login.php?v=-any&url=%{REQUEST_URI}?%{QUERY_STRING} [L,R] RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.sitename.com/amember/plugins/protect/new_rewrite/login.php?v=-any&url=%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R] ########### AMEMBER FINISH ####################
