Need help with WP please..

I've created a wp directory as a test, but I'm only getting the index page which shows all of the files.

There's the first comment but I can't even see that, as it goes to the index page.

Not sure what I did wrong, but I'm trying to learn about WP. This will help me immensely if I know what I did wrong.

If someone offers I can send the link with the passwords.

Really appreciate it.

  • When you see those files does it include index.php
    • [1] reply
    • Yes I do, but when I click on it, it only takes me to the dashboard.

      Speak soon as.

      Thanks ever so much

  • Hey Brian,

    Skype me and I'll take a look at it for you

  • Thank you for the replies, I'll be contacting you soon. Kids are going to bed, BBC - The Apprentice 2011 - The Official Site is on a 21:00pm so it's all go, but I'm determined to get this right.

    Thank you all.

  • Try these out:

    Solution 1
    If allowed by your host, putting this in an .htaccess file will solve the problem:
    DirectoryIndex index.html index.htm index.php

    Solution 2
    Some hosts allow you to make a change, via their hosting control panel, to the DirectoryIndex. It's typically described as Indexes or Index documents, but may also require you to type something like
    DirectoryIndex index.html index.htm index.php
    or specify index.php as an index type file.

    Solution 3
    Instruct Apache to treat index.php as an index file. If you own the server, or have access to the http.conf file, simply modify the DirectoryIndex line in httpd.conf to:
    DirectoryIndex index.html index.htm index.php

    This search of the forum found the solutions described above:
    Search › displays directory

    Source: WordPress › Support ยป Directory showing on my localhost site but want to show the index.php file first

    Seemed to work for others with the same problem, hope this helps you
  • I'm curious about this. Hope this gets solved soon. Update the tread if it gets fixed. Good luck.
