Hi kimarie,

The page is working for me at the moment, I was presented with the usual Price Tapestry /admin/ area login form.

The password required will be as configured in config.advanced.php (it can be set at line 2). Let me know if you're still not able to access the page as normal and I'll take a further look for you...

Cheers,
David.

Hi,

Thanks.

I was trying to get this to work http://www.pricetapestry.com/node/24 and changed the permissions for the /shopping folder (as I had tried changing it for the /feeds folder but the script just kept saying the folder wasnt writable) and changing the permissions for the root folder seemed to let wordpress take over and not let me access the pt files.

Hello Kimarie,

Yes that would be normal - products are deleted only when a feed is De-Registered.

Regarding the permissions problem, one possibility is that if the feeds already exist in the folder, having been created by a different user ŧhen your automation script may not be able to re-create / overwrite the file despite the folder having 777 permissions...

Cheers,
David.
