Midori can't open wordpress pages
Hi all,
I've just started using Midori. I like it very much, but I'm expiriencing a strange problem: every time I try to open a wordpress page (even wordpress.com) I get a 403 error ("Lost?").
Looking around on the web I've not found nothing similar to this problem.
The distro I'm using is BodhiLinux 3.0.
Any idea or suggestion?
Thanks

what i meant is this:
midori has some plugins that come with the default install, and they might be causing it, if maybe they were enabled by default. just a wild guess; i've been using midori and don't remember that problem, but i don't use it anymore.
it also depends on the distro; archlinux has a pretty new (current) version of midori, debian's isn't.

I tested with Midori 0.5.5 on Mageia v. 4 and had no problem visiting Wordpress pages. I had the same experience with Midori 0.5.5 in OpenSuse v. 13.1 in a VM. In both cases, no ad- or script-blocking software was in use.
It's a shot in the dark, but you could try starting Midori from the command line on the off-chance it might throw some useful error messages to the terminal.

Drat. Since it seems to be working for me, I don't have any idea what might be going on.

Ztcoracat, does that mean disabling adblock completely solves the problem? it should.
oh and btw, please don't leave out the leading zero - it's midori 0.5.10, not 5.10.
as you can see, it's still a long way until version 1.0.

I would think that disabling adblock would help however; in the next thread you can see that veerain doesn't have adblock enabled.
If pages at Word Press are still not loading with or without adblock enabled or disabled I think that takes adblock off of the culprit list. Ghostery may be another culprit or perhaps it is a bug.
Has installing the new release: 0.5.10 made any difference? (if you've had the chance to install it)
The best advise is what our Guru Mr. Frankbell has taught me:

Troubleshooting is eliminating possible sources of trouble, one at a time, with certainty.

Might take time but in the process you will not only find the culprit but you'll see that it's incredibly effective.

ok,
i was curious, installed midori 0.5.10 (webkitgtk2 version) on archlinux.
i opened wordpress.com (which redirected me to <2-letter-country-code>.wordpress.com), clicked a few random blogs, but everything works. out of the box with no extensions enabled, but also with adblock and nojs enabled.
sorry.
from where i stand, i'd say it's either the version (a bug in 0.5.8, fixed in 0.5.10) or the redirection to your country causing it.

Glad to hear that the new release of Midori works for you; ondoho- 
I think your right what ever it was (most likely a bug) it was fixed in the new release.
Maybe in the not so distant future the team that developed Midori will create a Forum.

ImaBug:
Have you had the chance to install the new release of Midori 0.5.10?
If so; how's it working for you?
