    I created a child theme for Hybrid to use for a high school newspaper. I am using dynamic content gallery to have a featured article section that rotates images and excerpts. All works on my MAMP install. However, not on my live Xserve running 10.5. I am thinking maybe a permissions issues? But I don't know how to change. Same theme, same plugins, same articles, but no worky on live server.

    If you have physical access to your XServer, open the Terminal application. Navigate to the directory that holds your Web files. Then run the following:

    sudo chmod -R 755 NAME_OF_DIRECTORY

    Replace NAME_OF_DIRECTORY with the directory name that holds your Web files.

    You can also log in to your XServe via SSH and do the above as well.

    That'll set the permissions so that the server can read them. If you still have issues, there might be something else going on.

    It must be something else. I am stumped. I am using a different theme on my class Website that has a similar feature, but doesn't use that plugin: http://maclab.edisonchargers.com/.

    What I don't get is why it works locally on MAMP, but not on the server. I installed the same version of WPMU locally, exported the school newspaper site, imported in the MAMP install, activated the same plug-ins, etc. Works fine locally, not on the server.
