I installed Wordpress to our Plesk Panel which is hosted by Redstation. In order to install they had to turn off url rewriting for the domain in IIS and suggested I re-enable url rewrite afterwards. It installed ok and then I edited the web.config file to re-enable url rewrite (I need this for SEO purposes to redirect www.mydomain.com/index.html to www.mydomain.com). Once I had done this I could no longer log into Wordpress (the login screen just refreshes). I asked Redstation to turn off url rewriting so I could fix the problem and found that this resolved it.
I asked them for some help in how I could get round this and this is their response:
I not sure this is possible, there is a re-direct option in Plesk, you may want to try using this option however, I believe if you use this you will not have the same benefit with the webconfig file and SEO.
Does anyone know whether I can set a 301 redirect on my website with Plesk whilst also allowing me to login to Wordpress (I have asked wordpress the same question but have no replies as yet)
Many thanks
