    Installed WordPress, but having problems.

    I downloaded WordPress from the website, and install went fine. But here's the kicker, I cannot delete posts, but I can create and/or edit them. I cannot create/delete categories, but I can edit them. I don't get what is happening here. When I do try to do one of those things, I get this message, "You don't have permission to do that." Why is it saying that, when clearly I am the administrator, and my account says so too?

    Before I had to switch to dial up, man I miss these speeds.

    I re-installed it the normal way, by uploading the files and everything, still nothing. I do not get why this happens, any ideas MicroTech? There is a solution, a small edit in the http.conf file, but I doubt it will be allowed.

    Yup, sounds like permissions to me.

    I didn't chmod anything, the readme that came with it didn't say too. I mean, if it did, like other scripts, it would have told me, correct?

    Re: Installed WordPress, but having problems.

    The documents provided on WordPress for installation says nothing of chmoding, so I suppose the install.php script that comes with it handles it all. I have already checked up on WordPress forums, and it seems like the only permanent solution is to make a small edit to the http.conf file, its a small change that everyone at WordPress says works. Since I have no access to this file...I cannot take it into my hands to do it. If you want to relay to Corey this information, than here is the thread:
    http://wordpress.org/support/topic/117993?replies=30
    Check out post number 3 by Specks. I have tried editing the .htaccess files, but it doesn't work in my case. If you can verify that by changing http.conf how it says in the thread would not introduce a security risk, then by all means go for it. Unless its something on the free server that is causing this?
