Thanks for reply;
I give more details.
I install wordpress on my machine, it works fine on local, I mean i if write in the browser localhost/wordpress, it 's OK.
I can use myIP/worpress on a remote machine to connect my server, It seems working fine, I get the main page,
BUT, CSS files are not read, I know that by prospecting the code source of the page.
Wordpress store everything in database, and so the name of the CSS file for example, unfortunatly, the path used is full address of the file like
localhost/wordpress/blabla/style.css
here is the Big Problem
When the connection is local, no problem, since localhost is the host of the server;
when the connection is like : http://
myURL/wordpress, we SHOULD FIND the CSS file with http://
myURL/w
ordpress/blabla/style.css
To solve the problem
- either we remove the absolute path for the files, and keep only the relative part, instead of storing localhost/wordpress/blabla/style.css, we keep only wordpress/blabla/style.css
- or we replace the localhost by the name of the machine or IP, that is what I want to do, I mean instead of storing in DB, localhost I tore the name of my machine like bela.enst.dz, the connetion w'll be done with this name and the problem is then solved
I used xampp to install apache, mysql and php. But the problem is the same when I installed each element alone ( apache2, php, mysql)
when I used the command : localhost -f , I got the correct name
tmp$ hostname -f
bela.enst.dz
thanks a lot for any idea
