After making a slight change under GENERAL – SETTINGS, my site crashed.

I removed the “wp” from WordPress Address (URL) and after updating, the site crashed.  Not cool.  There are a few ways to fix it, but the easiest way if you have FTP access to the site is:

After creating a static page called “Home,” I ended up with 2 tabs with the same name because one is hard coded into the header.php file.  Each theme may be slightly different, but for mine I went to APPEARANCE, then EDITOR while logged into WordPress as Admin.

On the right side I clicked header.php and scrolled until I found some code that I could comment out then test it.  For my theme (currently Elegant Grunge) it looked like this:

<ul>
<li><a href=”<?php bloginfo(‘url’); ?>”><?php _e(‘Home’, ‘elegant-grunge’) ?></a></li>
<?php wp_list_pages(‘title_li=&depth=1’); ?>
</ul>

So I remarked  some of the code so it would not be read. This is done with <!– before the start of the code and –> at the end. Now mine looks like this:

<ul>
<!–        <li><a href=”<?php bloginfo(‘url’); ?>”><?php _e(‘Home’, ‘elegant-grunge’) ?></a></li>
–>
<?php wp_list_pages(‘title_li=&depth=1’); ?>
</ul>

One last problem after I corrected this was my tabs were not in the order I wanted. You have to go back into PAGES and click EDIT under your page you want to be first.  Over on the right side is an ORDER box with a number.  This is the order you want the page to appear in the tabs, starting with zero showing first.  I put 0 in my page I want first then 1 in the next pages ORDER box and so on.

1. Click on Start button, then go to All Programs, and finally Accessories. If you’re using Windows Explorer shortcut at another location, such as Quick Launch bar or Desktop, skip this step.
2. Right-click on Windows Explorer (or its shortcut) and then click Properties.
3. In Windows Explorer Properties, click on Shortcut tab if you’re not already there.
4. The text box after “Target” by default will shown the value as below:%SystemRoot%\explorer.exeChange the Target text box parameter to the following:

   %SystemRoot%\explorer.exe /n, /e, <New Path>

   where <New Path> represents the full path to the new different folder that you want Windows Explorer to open as default folder on launch. The spaces must not be omitted.  I use %SystemRoot%\explorer.exe /n, /e, D:\Download\

   For example, if you want Windows Explorer to run and show C:\ folder, the Target path should be like this:

   %SystemRoot%\explorer.exe /n, /e, C:\

   Or you if you want Windows Explorer to go directly to C:\MyFolder\ directory, the line should read as below:

   %SystemRoot%\explorer.exe /n, /e, C:\MyFolder\

   A special case is to change the default setting so that all top–level drives and folders are shown. To show this folder view, use the following as Target shortcut so that when WindowsExplorer is opened, you can choose from all the folders and drives, not just My Documents:

   %SystemRoot%\explorer.exe /n, /e, /select, C:\

   The above syntax for the Target with “/select” to open parent folder of the destination folder so that you can “select” from all folders (or drives) that are available on the same level of directory structures.

5. Click OK.

This works on most Windows operating system, including Windows XP and Windows Vista.

Statement of the National Rifle Association of America

Mr. Chairman, thank you for this brief opportunity to address the committee. I am Wayne

LaPierre and for 20 years now, I have served as Executive Vice President of the National Rifle

Association of America.

The NRA was founded in 1871, and ever since has staunchly defended the rights of its 4 million

members, America’s 80 million law-abiding gun owners, and freedom-loving Americans

throughout our country. In 1996, the NRA was recognized as an NGO of the United Nations

and, ever since then, has defended the constitutional freedom of Americans in this arena. The

NRA is the largest and most active firearms rights organization in the world and, although some

members of this committee may not like what I have to say, I am proud to defend the tens of

millions of lawful people NRA represents.

“The last thing you want to do is to raise taxes in the middle of a recession, because that would just suck up—take more demand out of the economy and put businesses in a further hole.”

That was President Obama in 2009, trying to reassure Americans that he was going to wait until after the recession to raise taxes. Yesterday, he began pushing again for higher taxes on the “wealthy“—which would actually hit 1.2 million of the country’s most successful job creators.
