Hi all,

I have a wordpress website, let’s say its http://www.mysite.com. WordPress is installed in the website root, so that when you navigate to http://www.mysite.com, you get the wordpress blog. I recently installed bbpress at http://www.mysite.com/bbpress.

One of the first plugins I installed is BB Wysiwyg editor, but it fails to work properly. After some debugging, I found the following:

http://www.mysite.com/bbpress/my-plugins/bb-wysiwyg-editor/js/jwysiwyg/jquery.wysiwyg.gif is correctly displayed on my browser.

http://www.mysite.com/bbpress/my-plugins/bb-wysiwyg-editor/js/jwysiwyg/jquery.wysiwyg.css causes wordpress 404 error page to show up on my browser.

[js]

http://www.mysite.com/bbpress/my-plugins/bb-wysiwyg-editor/js/jwysiwyg/jquery.wysiwyg.js causes wordpress 404 error page to show up on my browser.

Just for kicks, I created a new file called test.txt under that same folder, and it is also displayed correctly.

Needless to say, all of the above files are physically there, I can clearly see them on my ftp client. So, something is going on with certain file types. It seems like wordpress allows some files to be correctly returned to the browser, while others are banned or something like that.

Has anyone experienced anything like this? Are there any config options that could solve this issue? I’ve been googling for quite a while without finding a solution.

Thanks!

Is it related to this at all?

Can you check the response headers for a page that comes up to see if it’s actually 404 instead of 200, even though it displays? Or post the link to your forum so someone can check it out.

Hi Chris, thanks for replying. I found the problem! It seems firefox had cached the “not found” page while i was having permission issues (750 instead of 755 or something), and instead of bringing the correct files, it was fetching the (bad) ones from the cache. Why it worked for jpg or gif files correctly is beyond me, but now everything seems to be working!!!

Weeeeeee!!!

THANKS!
