==Fixing the Dashboard== | |||
But there is one final step. Once installed and working, you may notice that the "Dashboard", the page that welcomes you when you login, looks a bit ''blank''. Well this is because Wordpress is attempting to download other websites relevant to Wordpress such as the Wordpress Dev Blog. | |||
To fix this, open 'wp-include/class-snoopy.php' and search for 'var $proxy_host'. Set 'proxy_host' to "proxy.dcu.ie", 'proxy_port' to "8080". | |||
var $proxy_host = "proxy.dcu.ie"; | |||
var $proxy_port = "8080"; | |||
Now search for the variable '_isproxy' and set it to "true". | |||
var $_isproxy = true; | |||
Now the dashboard should work properly. | |||
