1st:

It works now:

The startpage:

http://1a-spielwiese.de

The subdomains:

http://balletttaenzerinnenkrzbg36.1a-spielwiese.de/
http://kampfsportlerinnenneuwied.1a-spielwiese.de/

The finishing-button (“Registierung abschließen”) for the registration page:

http://1a-spielwiese.de/registrieren/

2nd:

However, it is still not very clear, what precisely was the specific reason for each problem at issue.

a) But it seems, that the my provider did the deleting of the http://www.-prefix from server setting in fact not or not the correct way.

b) An in-detail error analysis (unfortunately only in German) you find there:

[@1a-spielwiese Participant 12 years, 2 months ago]

I sent you the information there.

Thank you.

[@1a-spielwiese Participant 12 years, 2 months ago]

I did nothing since trying the script yesterday and I myself receive stil this ‘redirecting error’-message.

Would it be useful to give you the passwords for my WordPress-Installation, my FTP-Server and my MySQL-Database for checking them? – Of course, afterwards I would change password.

1st

Yes, I have salt keys.

2nd

— I followed there: http://stackoverflow.com/a/18772055 the “using this script”-link to: http://interconnectit.com/products/search-and-replace-for-wordpress-databases/

— I downloaded the script from there; I extracted the zip-file. I renamed the folder at issue.

— I uploaded the mentioned folder.

— I tried to address within in my browser 1a-spielwiese.de/NAME-OF-MENTIONED-FOLDER.

— I get again only the “Umleitungsfehler”-message.

[@1a-spielwiese Participant 12 years, 2 months ago]

I tried something else:

http://forum.wpde.org/installation/132277-multisite-umleitungsfehler-name-des-ftp-zuganges.html#post571472

(cfr. as well the comments before and behind).

But it doesn’t work as well. – Any further ideas?

[@1a-spielwiese Participant 12 years, 2 months ago]

I got one answer at the German WordPress-Forum:

“Der FTP Zugang ist nur für das hochladen und herunterladen von Datein zum/vom Server zuständig und hat sonst nichts mit der WordPress Installation zu tun.”

http://forum.wpde.org/installation/132277-multisite-umleitungsfehler-name-des-ftp-zuganges.html#post571150

In the international forum no answer yet:

[@1a-spielwiese Participant 12 years, 2 months ago]

I don’t know, whether this is possible in the administration area.

But may you can adapt this for your purposes:

https://buddypress.org/support/topic/add-profile-field-to-order-by-drop-down-menu/

I guess, to order the members due to a certain field implies to see, whether it is filled in or not.

[@1a-spielwiese Participant 12 years, 2 months ago]

Yes, within the administration area of your WordPress-installation is a menue point “users”. There is every user listed, and you as administrator can update all profiles – and the users themselves can update their own profile.

[@1a-spielwiese Participant 12 years, 2 months ago]

I checked now my “Verwaltungs-Interface”.

The domain is there named “1a-spielwiese.de” (neither www. nor http:// is mentioned there).

And the two subdomains, which were created on Friday, are also mentioned:

kampfsportlerinnenneuwied.1a-spielwiese.de

and

balletttaenzerinnenkrzbg36.1a-spielwiese.de.

But the “FTP-Zugang” for 1a-spielwiese.de is named: http://www.1a-spielwiese.de

Is this relevant oder equal? –

However, there is still the “Umleitungsfehler” regarding the current WordPress-Installation. Any further ideas?

—

@ https://buddypress.org/support/topic/no-button-for-finishing-registration/page/2/#post-187140

This totally I do not understand.

[@1a-spielwiese Participant 12 years, 2 months ago]

No, that is not reason.

Now I understand that changing the general settings causes already the change within the mySQL-Database. Changing the mySQL-Data is not an additional task, rather an alternative methode to get the same resulat.

Next I idea: “Now, in your Dreamhost panel, go to the ‘Domains > Manage Domains’ page here:

https://panel.dreamhost.com/index.cgi?tree=domain.manage&

To the right of your domain, click the ‘EDIT’ button under the column ‘Web Hosting.’ The very first option is how your site URL will appear. WITH or WITHOUT the www. (DO NOT leave it as ‘Leave it alone.’Wordpress makes you choose). So, if in your database the URL was http://www.mydomain.com, make sure the option in your panel also shows:

Add WWW: Make http://mydomain.com/ redirect to http://www.mydomain.com/

This way, the HOME and SITE URL in the WordPress database will match what’s in your Dreamhost panel, and you shouldn’t see any more issues with the site URL resolving.”

http://www.dreamhost.com/dreamscape/2013/10/17/why-wordpress-home-and-site-urls-matter/

I guess that means, I have to login in into the “Verwaltungs-Interface” of my provider and I have to do there similar. – I will test it. 🙂

[@1a-spielwiese Participant 12 years, 2 months ago]

“your site settings for the home and site url should match what is declared in your host account.
Read here what Dreamhost told about this.”

Thank you.

I guess that was the problem for the ‘non-www.-prefix’-try, which I did yesterday. Because I made no change in my MySQL-Database. (However, I don’t know, whether my provider changed it for my 1st WordPress-Installation on Friday.)

So I will try it again up from the beginning.

[@1a-spielwiese Participant 12 years, 2 months ago]

My wp-config.php and my .htaccess are both correct, isn’t it? –

What shall we do? –

— Shall we try to get the button at issue visible within the current WordPress-installation (with www. in the general settings)?

— Or shall we try to solve the “Umleitungs”-problem, which appears, when I remove the www. from the general settings (s. https://buddypress.org/support/topic/no-button-for-finishing-registration/#post-187046)?

[@1a-spielwiese Participant 12 years, 2 months ago]

Do you have inserted text (information) into the fields and profiles at issue?

If you have old profiles and create later new fields, this fields are of course empty. So you have to update the profile information at first.

[@1a-spielwiese Participant 12 years, 2 months ago]

My .htaccess file:

# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L]

# add a trailing slash to /wp-admin
RewriteRule ^wp-admin$ wp-admin/ [R=301,L]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
RewriteRule ^ – [L]
RewriteRule ^(wp-(content|admin|includes).*) $1 [L]
RewriteRule ^(.*\.php)$ $1 [L]
RewriteRule . index.php [L]
</IfModule>

# END WordPress

The lines at issue of my wp-config.php:

/**
* For developers: WordPress debugging mode.
*
* Change this to true to enable the display of notices during development.
* It is strongly recommended that plugin and theme developers use WP_DEBUG
* in their development environments.

/* That’s all, stop editing! Happy blogging. */

I have no time for comparing them right now. Sorry.

[@1a-spielwiese Participant 12 years, 2 months ago]

Your last answer I have seen right now. – I can’t answer in detail before tomorrow; I have to logout and to leave.

Only short:

“What is the /usage/ folder for?”

Maybe for for statistics.

“Most hoster have a root folder like htdocs or wwww.
You install WP at the root. Eg. server root/wp-content, server root/wp-admin, etc”

The highest level is not named. The wp-config.php and the .htaccess are on the highest level. The different WordPress-Folders constitute – together with the usage-folder – the second level.

—–

Before I did:

— Again I started everything up form the beginning. Now it is impossible to delete the file
.nfs00000000038a694400007603
from the wp-admin/includes folder.

— I delete and re-create the wordpress-database etc.

— This time I removed NOT the www. from the general setting.

— I inserted the indicated further lines to the wp-config.php and uploaded the .htaccess.

— I can log in; and I have two dashboards now. I activate ‘Es können neue Seiten und Benutzer registriert werden.’ (New pages and users can be registered.)

— I log out; check the registration page. It’s everything okay: The ‘weiter’ (next)-Button is there.

— I log in. I installed and activated BuddyPress.

— I de-activated ‘Extended Profiles’. I de-activated ‘Show the Toolbar for logged out users’.

— I log out and check the register page. The submit-Button is missing again.

—

However, on Friday I received the message from my provider: ‘Ich habe dir DNS Wildcard gesetzt und www entfernt.’ (I have set the Wildcard and www removed.’) –

But of course this referred on the WordPress/Buddy-installation from Friday not from today.

[@1a-spielwiese Participant 12 years, 2 months ago]

— Again I deleted everything (except the usage-folder) from my ftp-server and uploaded the fresh WordPress-copy again.

— As well I uploaded again the wp-config.php with the line
define(‘WP_ALLOW_MULTISITE’, true);

— Nevertheless I get still the same error message:

‘Fehler: Umleitungsfehler

Die aufgerufene Website leitet die Anfrage so um, dass sie nie beendet werden kann.’

— It’s the same as well, when I use the wp-config.php without the MultiSite-line.

[@1a-spielwiese Participant 12 years, 2 months ago]

— I removed all files from my ftp-Servers. – Only a folder ‘usage’ was not removable.

— I deleted my WordPress database. I created a new WordPress database.

— I renamed my old 1a-Spielwiese-folder on my on computer.

— I created a new 1a-Spielwiese-folder and there a Word-Press-subfolder.

— I downloaded a fresh WordPress copy from https://de.wordpress.org/latest-de_DE.zip to the mentioned subfolder.

— I extracted the zip file. Then I uploaded the extracted files to my ftp-server.

— I inserted my database infos to the wp-config.php and renamed it to wp-config.php.

— I surfed to http://www.1a-spielwiese.de/wp-admin/install.php

— After finishing the installation, I logged in and activated the Twentytwelve-Theme as well as ‘Jeder kann sich registrieren.’ I checked http://www.1a-spielwiese.de/wp-login.php?action=register – everything okay. The ‘Registrieren’-button is there.

— I inserted the line
define(‘WP_ALLOW_MULTISITE’, true);
into the wp-config.php and logged in again.

— I try to remove the www prefix from the WordPress-Adresse (URL) and Site Address (URL). During saving the setting change, I was automatically logged out. To log in again is impossible. Trying to go to 1a-spielwiese results in the error message:

‘Fehler: Umleitungsfehler

Die aufgerufene Website leitet die Anfrage so um, dass sie nie beendet werden kann.’

[@1a-spielwiese Participant 12 years, 2 months ago]

“A last try please. Remove www from the site url in the site settings.”

Once the MultiSite Version is activated, there are – neither on the Network-level nor on the 1a-Spielwiese-level – the lines “WordPress Address (URL)” and “Site Address (URL)” within the Generel Settings anymore.

However, my provider removed the www prefix already on Friday for me; cfr.:

https://buddypress.org/support/topic/no-button-for-finishing-registration/#post-187029

“I opened a ticket for this.
Please follow it, as you will probably be invited to give some more details to solve it.”

Have I to do anything right now? Or have I to read it only for the moment?

—–

However, I have decided to re-start really from the beginning; I removed all files from my ftp-server.

[@1a-spielwiese Participant 12 years, 2 months ago]

And seemling there were already in former times similar problems – without solution:

https://buddypress.org/support/topic/complete-sign-up-button-not-working-on-register-page/

and

https://buddypress.org/support/topic/registration-button-invisible/

Yesterday I found other descriptions of similar problems – as well without solution.

[@1a-spielwiese Participant 12 years, 2 months ago]

“remove all xprofile fields to get only the default name field.”

When I posted the comment:

https://buddypress.org/support/topic/no-button-for-finishing-registration/#post-187032

non xprofile field was created.

“Also download a fresh copy of wordpress and upload the twenty twelve theme folder to your site. Maybe your’s is corrupted somewhere.”

That’s really unlikely, because both copies worked without problems, before I installed the BuddyPress-Plugin. And I tried never to make any major change of twenty twelve theme or WordPress itself.

[@1a-spielwiese Participant 12 years, 2 months ago]

“Do you use a wordpress copy provided by your host?”

No, that version:

https://de.wordpress.org/latest-de_DE.zip

“Do you use a child-theme?”

No, up to now there was no nessicity for that.

“Do you use any shortcode on the register page?”

No – as far as I now.

[@1a-spielwiese Participant 12 years, 2 months ago]

“IMHO the easiest solution is – if the wildcard exist now – to remove the wp-config file from your site via FTP and to restart the installation process.”

I did it. But I lost my content, because I forgot using the export tool before renewing the installation. –

However, it did not solve the problems:

1st: A button for finishing the registration is still not displayed.

http://www.1a-spielwiese.de/registrieren/

2nd: The newly created blog

http://kampfsportlerinnenneuwied.1a-spielwiese.de/

does not work.

[@1a-spielwiese Participant 12 years, 2 months ago]

I installed WordPress. Then I activated the MultiSite-Functionality.

Within that process the htaccess was mentioned. Because it didn’t exist, I created such file – with the rules, which are mentioned for activating the MultiSite Version.

Finally I uploaded the htaccess and the modfied wp-config.php; and I contacted my provider regarding the Wildcard (and regarding deleting the www. prefix).

All this I did on Thursday, and my provider answered on Friday.

“Don’t forget that you’re on a MS. This means that you have 2 (zwei) dashboards.”

Yes, I have two.

“And that BuddyPress should be installed on the network.”

I did so.

“IMHO the easiest solution is – if the wildcard exist now – to remove the wp-config file from your site via FTP and to restart the installation process.”

Okay, I will try this.

[@1a-spielwiese Participant 12 years, 2 months ago]

“Ich glaube echt dass bevor du alles umbaust, das du heftig über BP lesen (und lernen) solltest!”

Gibt es ein aktuelles umfassendes deutsches Handbuch für BuddyPress? – Ich hatte gestern beim Suchen keines gefunden.

“Hast Du überhaupt BuddyPress instaliert ? :d”

I found the file at the mentioned place. I don’t know, why I didn’t find it before.
