Just moved to 2.0 myself on my main business site– http://kitchengardenfoods.com. Still trying to get it up to speed. Thanks for the links to recommended plugins. 60% of those I’ve installed work in 2.0 straight across. I’m going to check the new theme out too. . . .

I had the blog installed to http://conoroneill.com/wordpress/ but presented it out as http://conoroneill.com/

i.e. the Wordpress Address Option was set to http://conoroneill.com/wordpress/ and the Blog Address Option was set to http://conoroneill.com/

It looks like Postie (and Live Calendar) have something hardcoded to use the Blog Address Option for paths rather than a sub-dir if it exists. It would go to a non-existent page if I clicked on “update options”.

I solved it by moving the entire blog to the root dir of the web-site! I don’t know why I was bothering with sub-dirs.

What kind of a problem are you having with the directory structure? Send me an email and I’ll see what I can do

Thanks Ajay, already subscribed!

The “Simple Tags” plugin is now upgraded, installed and working. The “Postie” plugin is having hassle with the sub-dir install too so I think I’ll just move the entire install to the root of the web-site.
