Bludit Community Support Forum

Hey all,

I had a working Bludit install on my server at /wiki - but I wanted to migrate it to the root, so moved all files, and turned off the rewrite rule to /wiki in .htaccess, now the site throws up a 500 error.

I can add a rewrite rule for "/", but that just renders the index without css.

Any advice much appreciated!

1) Do you use now the default .htaccess?

2) Have you set the new Site URL in the settings "General" > "Advanced"?

Have you set the new Site URL in the settings "General" > "Advanced"?

While I have the default .htacess, I don't know how to do the above. If this is done via the administration panel, that is also broken. Perhaps I can update this manually instead?

Cheers.

You can set it manually in the file site.php (in the directory /bl-content/databases).

I don't know what's happening. :/

If I remove the "#" from "# RewriteBase /" in the .htaccess file the site loads, but all of the content is wrong / older versions of what I had. I'm lost.

Any ideas?

Check whether all URLs in your content point to proper resources.
I suppose the paths are wrong, thus all the content lacks all proper resources.

Thank you! You are correct, however part of this is user error.

I'd been copying my template folder from a local directory onto my server, but forgot to grab the latest content off my server and back it up locally. Hence, the content is broken because I backed up from my out of date local copy. User idiocy is more like it.

Thanks for your help, and for the excellent platform. For what it's worth I've really enjoyed templating with its PHP engine, reminds me of the good ol' Wordpress days, and I love the flatfile system. Cheers!
