Fixed it, in hindsight it was easy. If you try to redirect / then it's going to loop endlessly no matter what, so we changed it to /index.html and it worked. =) For anyone else needing to do this: >Redirect permanent /index.html http://www.****/site/index.html

I'm having a really bad day with proofreading, I'm sorry kkashi. =/ The reason that it is looping is because you've told it to go the root of your domain and find index.html and to redirect it back to index.html - over, and over, and over ... an endless loop. Can you tell me exactly what you are trying to do using a real world example?

Ah no, that was just an example from my .htaccess, for your example you'd use: >Redirect /index.html http://www.****/site/index.html That's the first r, in Redirect. =) Does that help? Sorry about that.

I use many redirects, they look like this: >Redirect /index.xml http://www.lisa-jill.com/?rss=1 (as an example) Since yours looks very similar, I would guess that the only change you need for your syntax is that "r" needs to be "R". These are *nix boxes and therefore sensitive. Also moving this for organization. =) Hope that helps!

If you submit a support ticket, TCH is very helpful in moving cpanel'd sites over... =) Link at the top of the forum.

*nods* The cpanel is missing a theme file, so just submit a ticket; if I can suggest it, when you mention it - ask for Monsoon. It's a yummy cpanel theme, much better than 'x' in my opinion.

I see, can you post the comments section of your template? You may first wish to try replacing it with the comments stuff from the default templates (you can find at movabletype.org) as that is probably where the error is occurring. If you post the comments part of the template, please make sure you click code before and after, or we won't be able to see it. =) I don't think it's the cookiek fyi; as I've never been to your site and it's happening to me. But youd' just go, in IE, to tools, Internet Options, Delete Files.. =) no need to though.

I'm confused as to what exactly is happening? You're logging in to mt.cgi. Click on a comment in the 'last 5 comments' and end up back at the main screen? Usually that happens for 1 of 2 reasons... the path in mt.cfg doesn't match the url (you used a www in one and not the other, or different cases, etc) or you have a corrupt cookie. Does that help at all?

Well, I've ascertained that most of my peripherals will be happy on a Mac and have proper software; but my webcam software wouldn't be. I don't know if there is good webcam software for a Mac (to stream to my site) and thats my main concern now, as I like it. I could probaby run that in a virtual manager without a problem. =)

Did you install it with mysql, as per the TCH instructions? If so, then you can move it around at will and just modify mt.cfg, not a problem. =)

css/edge pure css popups, image and text. Sounds like what you're after, I think?

did you want them to open as a full sized page, or a popup? =) I used this on a friend's site that has very limited images, that may be of use to you.

I am really very bad with the jargon, and all this rss stuff sort of sends me in a spin too. But basically, in Movabletype, the .rdf file is RSS 1.0. The .xml file is RSS 2.0. So I sticked with the newer version rather than keeping up several templates (I already had approximately 26 in my main weblog, and 40 placed through other weblogs) To my knowledge, anyone tht could read the .rdf could read the .rss; so for the purposes of weblogging in general, there was no reason I could see to bother keeping up both templates. =) Does that make sense?

Acrobat opens for me but it takes an insane amount of time; and then closing it is also insane. I use the same workaround, save as blah blah. This made me very,very cranky when filling out college apps, which are all pdf's.

alt for images, title for text links. alt = alternate way to display image title = more information on the link before clicking it The alt tag *does* work in Netscape; however it doesn't produce a hover effect (it doesn't in firefox either, but I have an extension installed to fix this.) the purpose of the alt tag isn't actually for that nice hover; but for people that can't get or see the images, to replace them or for screen-readers to read them.. the hover is just nice for those of us without accessibility issues. =)

Mysql has an import function that asks you to import it from a .txt file on your harddrive; that is how I got my MT site up here. The text file you exported will probably have some details at the top for the new dbname, dbuser and pwd, so that it has permissions to create. You should double check that those are ready to go. I've had problems with that before, not sure why; when I did I just copied and pasted the entire file (below the variables for db name/user/etc) into the import query window and hit go.

There are a lot of different formats that you can have with RSS feeds as well. You can have excerpts of your posts, full posts (my preference), posts with comments, comments only, etc etc. I use Bloglines (so that I can check my rss feeds remotely as well) (http://www.bloglines.com) to get my rss feeds. MT creates feeds with excerpts of those three types automatically, but if you wanted to deliver a different type or multiples, you can edit them in the Templates screen or add new ones via adding a new Index Template. Also, be careful with hotlink protection; because if you decide to turn off direct hotlinking it can cause problems. I also allowed Bloglines to grab my pictures for display; but there are so many out there it's hard to guess for everyone. =) As far as preferred format; I tend to stick with RSS 1 or Atom. RDF is just an older version of RSS as far as I understand it; and RSS is now widely supported. Atom is still new but is also fairly widely supported. I use my atom feed to syndicate my site to livejournal, which is kind of neat for my lj friends (lj people sometimes don't like to have to go elsewhere *grins* stereotype, but I've found it true!) I even deleted my rdf feed from my site and stuck only with the .xml (rss 1.0) feed; as I like to keep up fewer templates, not more.... well that was when I was using MT, with my new site I keep available rss 1.0 and atom. =)

I'll add this to the list of ones to look into. Thank you. =)

I love Horde, it's my favorite of the ones available. If yours isn't working, please note the error and submit a ticket to the support desk.

*talks to herself, becaues it's fun* Nevermind, a further search of the forums notes that Zend is installed. In this thread and this thread and this thread! all of which have some great info to read on. If you are still having problems after going through those, please submit a ticket to have it double checked. =)

I've just had a quick look through the installation documentation. You would need to submit a help desk ticket to get the final word if this is allowed; and if it is - to have them install it. The installation appears to require root shell access, so it has to be done by TCH. Hope that helps!

Did you want a program that does this automatically, or did you want to create your own thumbnails and large pics, and do it manually? I'll move your post to the right section after you give more details of what you want. And answer in more detail, of course.

What are the permissions on the cgi script that you're using? Have you tried changing them to 755? Most cgi scripts, in my experience, need 755 to work on TCH servers.

Oh! Gallery is not one of the scripts that is available for automatic installation via cpanel (at least, it's not on my cpanel!). You would need to install that one yourself. =) Oh, and this is where you can find Gallery.

My pleasure, as always.
