A few months back I worked on a WordPress Theme for First In Action. The project was to create a blue version of an already existing WordPress Theme. The work was not really that difficult, in fact, it was dead easy but, unfortunately, things were added which were not in the original request. Well, I really didn’t mind since the request were very easy and doable like installing WordPress.

A problem I encountered while working on First In Action’s WordPress Theme was not even related to the creation of the theme. The problem was with the server because everything was handled by redirects and rewrites. The server rewrites all the files without an extension making it appear like a directory.

Now that is where the problem came in. I installed First In Action’s WordPress blog in a directory named /firstinaction and since there was already a file named firstinaction.php, the blog became unaccessible. The only time the blog will appear is when you add a trailing “/” mark at the end of “firstinaction”.

The problem was beyond the scope of the project but I still tried to help them resolve it. In the end, they contacted their programmer for assistance. I guess he was the one who did the rewrites.

The project took longer than expected because I think they were also busy with other things but it doesn’t matter because the people behind First In Action are really nice people and I did get paid in the end anyway.

No need to look other side for creative shearling bomber jacket and artistic high visibility trench coat with hood. If you are worried about quality plus size mens vintage leather jackets and artistic designer ladies designer jackets, come and shop at classic trench coat.
