Hi all,

Hope someone can help. This must be simple basic and simple, yet I cannot get it to work. I installed latest wordpress/civicrm on debian wheezy, everything works fantastic, except for one thing: wordpress does not seem to link the unsubscribe links from civimail to civicrm at all, I simply get my default (empty) wordpress page with "Nothing Found". The link looks like:

http://civicrm.company.com/?page=CiviCRM&q=civicrm/mailing/optout&reset=1&jid=8&qid=7&h=375026a0a2b89c3d

I think I have to do something, to make wordpress know what to do with ?page=CiviCRM

For example: I can change ?page=CiviCRM to whatever I like (?page=CiviMRC) and I keep ending up in my default (empty) wordpress front page.

As I said: it most be something *VERY* basic and simple. All civicrm functionality works, but only under the wp-admin/admin.php?page=CiviCRM

Could anyone help out..?

Ok, figured it out. Strange that this info is so hard to find...
Anyway:

In Administer > Users and Permissions > Permissions (Access Control) > WordPress Access Control, make sure Anonymous access to CiviMail: access CiviMail subscribe/unsubscribe pages.

Create a Page in Wordpress called civi-public which resolves at the URL http://www.example.com/civi-public

In civicrm.settings.php I added the following line:
define ( 'CIVICRM_UF_WP_BASEPAGE', 'civi-public');

Then things started working.
