Re: Anyone have multisite working on Bluehost?

Ah! I am having this exact same problem.

However, my site(s) worked great before I upgraded to 4.4.1

I vaguely remember changing the .htaccess file when installing texpattern the first time to change how it pointed to urls. .

i did finally run a CSS debugging program, and it said that the url for the header image is not loading.

Here’s the site:

http://www.cardiotaichi.org

Try using an absolute path to that image rather than a relative path, in your CSS. Example:

background: url(http://www.cardiotaichi.org/site_image/logo.gif) no-repeat center;

Your site also appears to be trying to load the stylesheet from http://www.illustrateth.com rather than cardiotaichi.org.

Re: Anyone have multisite working on Bluehost?

Hmm. . o.k. .i’ll try that. . thanks. . though i still wonder why it worked before 4.4.1. . . . .

the actual site addres is www.illustrateth.com/cardiotaichi

cardiotaichi.org is just the domain name that points to it.

(It’s my own server on bluehost, and i just run the site as a favor to my old teacher. . . i upgraded because i wanted to set up my own site for art stuff. . and ah. . and i’ve got a 3 yr old and 1 yr old, so though i like code, not much time to study it, so feel a little like banging my head against the wall for upgrading :P)

Re: Anyone have multisite working on Bluehost?

hmm. . . can’t find any more urls to fix, but navbar and content still not working. . come to think of it. . .I don’t think i had images in my navbar, just styled text.

Here’s the code for the default page:
(left out head. . . meta stuff not relevant to this question. . . )

<body>

<!-- logo header -->
<div id="header" name="header" style="display:inline">

</div>


<!-- navbar -->
<txp:output_form form="navbar" />

<!-- left decoration bar -->
<div id="left_dec_bar">
</div>

<div id="article_photo">
<txp:image_display><txp:article_image /></txp:image_display/>
</div>

<!-- center -->
<div id="content">

Code for the navbar form:

<!-- navbar -->
<div id="navbar">
<ul>
  <li></txp:link_to_home><txp:section_list include_default="1" wraptag="ul"  break="li" class="navbar"  /></a></li>
</ul>
</div>

& the CSS stylesheet:

p

    line-height: 180%;

Re: Anyone have multisite working on Bluehost?

Navbar code has a big syntax problem:

</txp:link_to_home><txp:section_list include_default=“1” wraptag=“ul” break=“li” class=“navbar” />

There’s a slash in front of <txp:link_to_home /> where there shouldn’t be. But you probably don’t want that tag there anyway. You might want it to say this instead:

<txp:link_to_home>Home</txp:link_to_home>

There’s another extra slash at the end of the image line:

<div id="article_photo">
<txp:image_display><txp:article_image /></txp:image_display/>
</div>

Here’s what I would do:

<txp:if_article_image><div id="article_photo">
<txp:article_image />
</div></txp:if_article_image>

Try those things first, see if it helps.
