What's the name of the skin? Maybe someone can find what's wrong and fix it, but in the mean time I'd say delete the skin and choose one that works!

One of the skins downloads screwed it up but now no matter what skin I use the effect is the same.

The bug or whatever is happening only affects the default blog. In the uploading I somehow corrupted a file. I am quite certain it is a matter of replacing the corrupted file with an original.
The specific wrong action is - whatever is putting http://www.urbizzness.com/"
In the middle of all the URL addresses on the sidebar.
All the addresses are accurate, but for the http://www.urbizzness.com/ insertion:

http://www.urbizzness.com/blogs/http://www.urbizzness.com/?cat=66

Okay. Um... Here's the deal: unless a skin is really really REALLY messed up I can't understand how it could damage your core files. Seems to me just picking a different skin (like one you know was working correctly before this bad thing showed up) should clear up the problem.

Again I'll ask what skin did you install that caused the problem to happen?
EDIT: doesn't matter - not likely a skin issue after all

Have you deleted that skin folder from your server? Are you able to set or select a different skin and get your blog to work properly?

Okay - never mind. I just went to http://www.urbizzness.com/blogs/?skin=custom and see the doubling of your url, except in ONE case: the "/ women" blog. http://www.urbizzness.com/blogs/index.php?blog=14 works like one would expect. When I switch Faye's blog to the custom skin with http://www.urbizzness.com/blogs/index.php?blog=14&skin=custom I see that all the links work the way one would expect.

Conclusion is that this is NOT a skin problem. Somewhere, somehow, you've got something wrong in your settings for your blog #5. Compare 5 and 14 and you'll probably find the difference. Something specific to look at would be your blogs tab for blog 5. Preferred access type, blog folder URL, and URL blog name / Stub name are all things you should be looking at. Are any of them full-blown URLs? Especially the "URL blog name / Stub name" setting! Compare those to what you've got on blog 14 and you'll probably cure the issue.

I HOPE!!!

Sheeesh....it is a long story :oops: ....but the stub name was the problem...
You guided me in the right direction in solving the problem.
How I managed to goof it up is quite the mystery.
It is sorted out now.....thanks :-/
