The .htaccess file is most likely hidden by your OS/app. In your FTP tool, there should be an option where you can enable to show hidden files.

Hi Daniel

thanks for pointing me to this setting... Because there was an htaccess file in the folder /installer/skeleton I ever thought about this option...

I will give a try tonight.

Your URL rewriting is not working.  Make sure that the .htacess file from backlight/ in your Installer zip has been uploaded to backlight/ on your server.
If you are the admin then also make sure that mod_rewrite is enabled in Apache and that AllowOverride set to 'all' for the directory that your site resides on.

I'm actually having the same problem -> but I do not have a .htaccess file in the folder /backlight/ of my installer.zip... I download and installed BL2 several times -> same result... Any hint where this missing file is located?

Any help is appreciated!

Hi Rod

Issue solved - Thanks!

The breadcrumbs font size on my album pages is about 12px instead of 18px as written in the page template "Breadcrumbs appear in albums and album sets, at a base height of 18px."

To temporarily fix this I have set

span {
	font-size: 16px;
}

in my custom.css file - just wonder if there is an issue with that..?

I have created all the templates with the Pangolin version.

When I open the site on a mobile device or tablet the menu font size is too big. I did not find any option to correct this.

When I set the Breakpoint to always -> also on the desktop view the font looks huge...

With the old Backlight templates I never had an issue.

Thanks for helping me solving this issue.

Hi Daniel,

thanks for your explanations.

So I could copy the entire page to a new folder of an other test domain and login as an admin to change the general settings?

I just remember when I started with Backlight on a test environment and went then productive I had a some problems related to the path of some folders...

But as you mentioned -> export and Import the settings will probably do the job.

I will give a try and see how it works.

Thanks
HP

Hi all,

The next version of Backlight will come soon.

I would like to have a 1:1 copy of my web page where I could do the upgrade first, check all the new features, apply maybe new settings and do some tests before I apply the upgrade to the productive web site. Or how about testing the chart and sales first before going online?

Could you give me some ideas how you handle this and how you setup a test site?

Do you export/import settings?

Do you copy all the files from test to production?

Any idea ist apprechiated.

Thanks and regards
HP

Yes I checked all the WP tables for http: -> all fine nothing to change...

I also went through all the db files of Backlight - at the end I was expecting some hard coded http:

Hi michilge,

I followed your steps 1-5 and it looks like the https problem has gone and the page look ok now.

I will continue with step #8 then.

Thanks a lot for your help!

Hi Rod,

yes - several times... all other URLs are correctly set to https:// only the two stay on http://

I also renamed it, deleted it in the themes folder and repubished it... no way to get it fixed... cache deleted...

This line of loading the style-css is correct... Just the awsome and the custom fail...

<link rel='stylesheet' id='style-css'  href='https://

HP

Hi,

I just came across a problem when I was testing my site with Firefox... Chrome was just showing the mixed content...

When I click on the "external link" for my blog -> the page opens the Wordpress blog. The design looks so far ok...
The search button and the special arrows in the menue do not show up correctly...

When I checked the source code of the page I saw that two ccs files are loaded as http: // instead of https:// therefore the mixed content problems occurs.

<link rel='stylesheet' id='font-awesome-css'  href='http://...
<link rel='stylesheet' id='custom-css-css'  href='http://

Any idea where to fix this?

Thanks and regards
HP

Hi all

I have just moved away from a pure Wordpress solution to Backlight.

The beginning was a bit hard - but once you got it - there was no way to stop :-)

My next steps will be to update all the keywords of the published pictures to take profit of the functionality of Backlight.

My site is now online http://www.leupin.net

Check it out… :-)

HP
