Wordpress Problem. Going to http://wp-admin....

Discussion in 'WordPress' started by jhmattern, Aug 12, 2007.

    I'm having problems with one of my wordpress installations. With certain types of edits (like adding meta tags to the home page with the add meta tags plugin and when I tried to delete some users), when I hit the "submit" or similar button I'm being directed to http://wp-admin..... instead of http://mydomain.com/wp-admin.....

    I'm not using any plugins that aren't working (they all work fine on all of my other blogs with various WP installations, and I use this same plugin combination for most of them). The users did eventually delete even though I only got the error to the wrong URL, but the meta tags won't add.

    Has anyone had this happen before, or does anyone have any suggestions?

    Something *similar* to this happened to me once. When I made some edits through a different plugin it reset my blog location under "general options"

    Where it says:
    WordPress address (URI):
    Blog address (URI):

    That part was for some reason blank. It's a reach, I know, but it *could* be your problem.

    Apart from that I have no idea what is going on. Did you try removing the plugin files to see if it corrects itself?

    Yeah, I already checked the addresses listed in my options, and those were both fine. :(

    I did remove the plugin, and that's when the same issue happened when trying to delete users. I disabled all plugins when I did that, and tried just the one with the problem later, and still no luck.

    Damn. That's just not cool at all. Wish I could help further. Looks like your knowledge extends beyond mine.

    Good luck!

    I'd say check the "siteurl" field in your WordPress database. Of course I may be wrong but its worth double checking that field. It should be in the "options" table.

    The site URL was fine. I did find an area that looked like it was missing a / in the wp-blog-header.php file (or something like that). When I added it, the plugin was working perfectly. :)

    Thanks for the help everyone.

    Nope. I just cleared everything out very recently. Like I mentioned though, there was an issue with a theme file that I found and fixed.

    Try taking a backup and do a re-insall and import.
    Not sure what else you could try!
