WPG2 Working again!
Mar 29, 2008 in Tech/Nerdy
As alot of you may have realized about a month ago, 1and1.com updated a few things. Well for us with a wordpress plugin named WPG2, it completely destroyed it. You try and visit the site containing your gallery and you would get a nice 500 error instead of your nicely created gallery.
Well finally the folks over at the gallery site found a solution.
Simply FTP into your website, find the .htaccess file, and add the following lines (you can open this file in wordpad for formatting):
AddType x-mapp-php5 .php
AddHandler x-mapp-php5 .php
Reupload and like magic, your gallery will work again.
It must have something to do with 1and1 using php4 as the default now instead of php5. Reguardless, it works again and I am happy.
