I doubt there's an easy push for it, but Flickr might have a built-in pull function to grab images from an existing gallery. Then again, maybe they don't want to make it too easy for people to grab images from all over the Internet.

Wrong file. It's .bash_profile you want to update (remember: login = user = profile) .bashrc is for non-login shells.

When I log in to ssh, I am greeted with the [minsk]$ prompt like normal. I have updated my .bashrc file with some aliases and preferred display type (user@minsk:~/...$), but I must source .bashrc before it will load my settings. How can I have my settings loaded by default on login?

Is there any way that I can upload to flickr on the command line directly from my dreamhost SSH login? Or any other way, really... I regularly backup my photos to my dreamhost account for a web-available copy, but want to get them over to flickr as well without re-uploading gigs of data over my slow connection again.

Thanks Scott... I gave it a try but still can't get it to work. I now have it set up where under "Manage Domains", sdcsb.dreamhosters.com is shown to mirror http://sdcsb.org (the only option available under "Mirror this site"). I then waited for the 5-10 minutes for the change to take effect, but http://sdcsb.dreamhosters.com isn't working for me. Other thoughts/pointers?

But until then, how do I access my dreamhost account? I've tried http://dreamhost.com/~sdcsb, http://dreamhost.com/sdcsb, http://kinshasa.dreamhost.com/sdcsb, etc. No luck... Help please?

Yeah try again.

The sub-domain setup script doesn't send you a confirmation email (probably because it's so fast). Subbies are usually available for SFTP access in a matter of seconds after creating them via the Panel and a little while longer for web browser access.

Go into Panel and refresh the sub-domain.

Panel > Domains > Manage Domains

- Click Edit next to the domain in question

- Under Fully Hosted, click the Change settings button

Use FTP or an SFTP client to upload files. WinSCP is a free SFTP client for Windows.

Sometimes it takes a little bit before a subdomain is fully functional. Should you continue to get the same error, try:
http://wiki.dreamhost.com/Bad_httpd_conf

To upload, just use an FTP program to connect to sub.example.com and user the username and password you've assigned the subdomain to.

There's DreamHostApps which is more like a trial account, which is what it sounded like you were describing.

To upload a theme, it goes in the wp-content/themes folder. Check some of the existing themes to see what they need to include and make sure you have a similar set of files.

Unless you're using a paid hosting plan and used the Advanced One-Click install, you won't be able to upload to your WordPress site. Paid plans include FTP access to the advanced and manual installations of WordPress.

Thanks guys for getting me this far. I have the subdomain setup, and now I want to do the one-click install. How do I indicate that I want to do the one-click install for the subdomain and not the primary domain. I do not see that option. When I click on one-click install it takes me to the screen where it asks if I want to install in easy or advanced mode only.

Thanks.

Make sure it's the Fully Hosted section. At the bottom of that section is a little button that says Fully Host This Domain, and that's what sets it up. You'll end up with an empty directory where the Advanced One-Click will install WordPress when you tell it to install to wp.example.com. The Advanced One-Click will also need a place for your database, which would be something like db.example.com for a database called something like wp_ stanwelks and a user like wp_stanwelks

I found my way to the add sub domain page, though I have no idea what to do.

My address is www.mydomain.com

1.) There is a Domain to Host field, so I enter wp.mydomain.com because this is where I want to test my WordPress install

2.) I leave all of the other options on the page at the default settings.

3.) What do I do next? I do not see a submit button for this.

Thanks for your patience!!!!

I don't believe it's quite as simple as that. From what I've gathered through casual reading most WP'ers find a theme that's already been written and manipulate it to suit their imagery. There's bound to be WP theme tutorials online somewhere - Mr. Google will know

Everyone has there own preferences when it comes to the organisation of files on one's server, so just do what's comfortable for you. If you plan to upload files in future using WP's own upload features it would probably be sensible to first install WP so it creates it's default media folders and then upload your video content directly into that location via SFTP.

Just for clarification:

1. If I choose Easy Mode, can I install these, or only the ones already provided?
2. Which plugins are already provided through Easy Mode?
3. Can I switch from Easy Mode to Advanced or the other way around once I make my decision?

It's highly improbable that things are being done behind the scenes on your DreamHost box itself, but to be double-sure you can close any doors by ensuring that the user account is "locked down":

I have used the following.

AVG Anti Virus

Avira AntiVir
CA Sweep
Malwarebytes Anti-Malware
Spybot Search and Destory

Nothing has came up that shows any type of threat.

Note: Before Changes where made, I was on a clean slate (brand new out of the box Laptop Win7) did not visit any webpages, went directly to Dream Host, Deleted all Users, Changes all Password.

Went to main computer, Ran everything I could think of to find any scripts or files that would cause problems, I left coding on the webpages for the time being so Dream Host can take a look at it.....

Am I missing anything?

Thank you

This is the biggest reason why I am worried about my service, is because the changes were made on a clean computer... and then they happened again

First thing to do is scan your own PC, then proceed to clean your website.

These trojans are written by PERL hackers and can embed code locally to remake any edits you're taking out via your own PC. The most prevalent injections are done via WordPress sites (especially those using those awesome plugins we all seem to love so much) - reason being it's an extremely popular script. They inject code that then attacks visitor's PC's in order to propagate. I visit your site, I get infected, I log in to my site, my site gets injected, repeat for my visitors. Makes Google unhappy (not to mention you and I).

Update all your scripts after ensuring your connecting PC is trojan free

and the other was on oscommerce page.

I deleted all users, created new ones, checked permissions on config files everything is secure, also checked to see if i had enchanced sercurity checked on the hosting aswell and that is done.

This has happened after all changes were made, I thought I was hacked the first time aswell thats why I changed all my information.

Still can not understand how this happened after all changes were made....
