    Hey,

    So I need help and I've been searching the support forums to try to find the answer but so far nothing has helped. I am using wordpress 2.8.4 and the theme is Neonglow 1.2 by Lunamedia.

    What I am having trouble with:

    on my blog I have a bunch of static pages and one blog page. I have turned comments off on everything except for the blog page. The problem is when you go to the blog page and you click on the blog, it give the "page not found" error. Same thing for clicking on the comments. I'm not sure of how to fix this.

    Any help would be really appreciated. How I think this is supposed to work is to be able to click on the blog post or click on no comments and be able to access the page.

    Thank you in advance,
    Marla

    You may need to just re-save your Permalinks.
    Admin > Settings > Permalinks

    If it doesn't work, post your URL.

    ok, so I got the comments to work, however, when clicking on the headline to the blog post, it goes to a page that says "page not found" how can I fix this?

    really? so if you click on the headline for the blog post, it will bring up the blog post not a this page is not found error? if so then it might be my computer, which would be great. :)

    Try restarting your browser. But, I'm not getting any page not found messages right now...

    I got the comments to work just fine.. it's just the blog links that are giving me trouble.

    Ahhhhhh, I see, no that one doesn't work.

    Post your .htaccess file.

    What Permalink structure are you using?

    You did re-save your Permalinks, didn't you?

    Try switching to the default structure temporarily too. Does it work then?

    my permalink is: /blog/%postname%

    where can i find the .htaccess file? I'm looking for it at my hosting site and can't seem to find it.

    thank you so much for your help. i'm a senior in college and trying to get an online resume together to apply to internships and this is the last thing that has been giving me trouble so i REALLY appreciate your help. :)
