Hi, I have been unable to add any post after a fresh Wordpress install. It gives me an error “Publishing failed. You are probably offline.” even though I’m using a good-speed internet connection.
Then I checked & found there’s no database. When I created one manually, it didn’t automatically add any table. I don’t know how to set it up.
I have done fresh installs multiple times using the Softaculous apps installer but that doesn’t create Database & database tables.
The issue is not WordPress installation. The website is up & running but cannot perform any action for example adding new posts. The actual issue is database. I don’t know how to create it with required tables.
I had also the same issue. I did install WordPress manually and everything worked fine. If you are using SSL then install a WordPress plugin Really Simple SSL.
Installing plugins is not going to do anything if there is no database.
@swingwizard, was the installation new? If it is, I would reinstall from scratch. Otherwise, I would wait to see what Admin has to say about this. He may know more than we do.
So guys I have found the key & it seems that is the only way.
I tried everything, but none worked. I even imported a database, which too failed. Finally, I created a new account inside Infinityfree(it allows 3). That worked!
Just for reference, I had earlier assigned a weak password. It got hacked, and then I had to remove everything but it only created problems afterwards even with the fresh installs. So, if someone’s website gets hacked, simply deactivate & remove the account inside Infinityfree & create a new one.
Thank you guys also for taking time in pursuit of support!
