The password is in your blog's MySQL database. You need a tool to access the table serendipity_authors in said database, e.g. phpMyAdmin. Ask your web hosting company about that.Beth wrote:I can't log back in and when I was searching through the forum trying to figure out the answer
Do not do this! This is an old way described, which would not work any more since a few years!yellowled wrote:See viewtopic.php?p=52822#p52822 for how to set a new password properly.
Code: Select all
<?php
$username = "YOURusername";
$password = "YOURpassword";
include 'serendipity_config.inc.php';
echo serendipity_db_query("UPDATE {$serendipity['dbPrefix']}authors SET password = '" . serendipity_hash($password) . "', hashtype=1 WHERE username = '" . serendipity_db_escape_string($username) . "'");
echo "Password changed.";
What do you mean exactly by pasting code in the browser? And where do you get the 404?Beth wrote:1. I keep getting an error that it is 404 error. Why? Sometimes I have problems pasting code in the google browser but I tried it in firefox and it failed as well. Is there something i have to look for in the code?
This is very likely the template you are using, which seemed to be something generated by RVSiteBuilder, whatever that is and does in detail.Beth wrote:2. I have a huge problem with formatting. When I play around with size and other formatting, it gets all crazy on me and I can never seem to set it just right? Are there any tips or something to help me with this?
This depends on what that global template and the roots htaccess and all those scripts do. As far as I can see, you can't even access the blogs backend properly by http://firstclasscanine.com/blogweb/ser ... _admin.php, which gets redirected to the roots page.Beth wrote:3. Can I install a template on just the blog area of my website or is it using the template for my website?My website is http://www.firstclasscanine.com if that helps you at all.
I get the embed code from you tube and paste it into the blog post. The error occurs in the area that the video should pop up in.What do you mean exactly by pasting code in the browser? And where do you get the 404?
This explains all my problems I think. Thank you because I am clueless. It was automatic. I don't think I did anything. My extent of my knowledge is looking at stuff and figuring it out by a combination of looking it up and pressing buttons. Your comment will now help me no longer bang my head against a wall.You seemed to have used an automatic tool, to bind a not separately installed serendipity blog package into that. I for myself can't really help here, since I do not know what your hoster or wherever you got that from has changed, to make this work somehow.
Ok this should be solvable at least.Beth wrote:I get the embed code from you tube and paste it into the blog post. The error occurs in the area that the video should pop up in.
