Hello,

I am having issues with the pagination. When I click on a number or next nothing happens except for the page itself refreshing and showing the same page again. http://allinpokertips.com/videos/

I am not sure what is wrong here, I did some troubleshooting on my own, but coming up with nothing.

Thanks for any help

Hi,

It looks like your server is simply stripping of the query string (the "tubepress_page=2") from the pagination links. This in turn just brings the user right back to the page they're looking at. I would check your .htaccess files and/or open a support ticket with your hosting provider.

Let us know what you find. Thanks!

Eric,

Thanks for the response. I did have it working once then it stopped. I have no clue about the .htaccess files. Is this something you would walk me through?

Eric,

I just spoke with the hosting company and they are pointing this back to the software. They said the problem has nothing to do with their servers. Please help if possible.

The problem is with your webserver's configuration. And on 99% of (Apache) hosts, webserver configuration problems lie in .htaccess files.

Your site is sending HTTP 301's, which is fairly common in WordPress installations, but in doing so it's stripping off the query string from the original request. Here's an example, using your site's home address which has nothing to do with TubePress:

~ > curl --head http://wptwsop.com/?foo=bar
HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently
Date: Wed, 30 May 2012 22:56:06 GMT
Server: Apache
X-Pingback: http://wptwsop.com/xmlrpc.php
Location: http://wptwsop.com/
Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8

In plain English, the server is telling us to go to "http://wptwsop.com/", but this is exactly what we asked for, just without the query string. Here's an example of a properly-functioning site:

~ > curl --head http://www.chiefly.org/?foo=bar
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Date: Wed, 30 May 2012 23:07:34 GMT
Server: Apache
X-Pingback: http://www.chiefly.org/xmlrpc.php
Vary: Accept-Encoding
Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8

Notice how the query string is accepted without trouble.

I would try temporarily moving your existing .htaccess files and installing fresh copies of them using WordPress. That should narrow it down for you. Hope this helps! Let us know.

Eric,

I am hella confused. This is what my .htacess looks like

# BEGIN WordPress

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]


# END WordPress

I have no clue as what to add here to make this work.

Eric,

I figured it out. It had to do with WP SEO plugin. I unchecked Redirect ugly URL's to clean permalinks and it works now.
