archives page doesn't display without putting index.php before it (4 posts)

    I used the pages feature to create an archives page, using the archives.php file included in the template folder. I want the url to link to the archives page to be:

    http://www.clioweb.org/archives/

    But that link will take you to my homepage, whereas this link:

    http://www.clioweb.org/index.php/archives/

    takes you to the archives page. This is the only page I've created in WordPress that does this. All of my other pages work...see for example:

    http://www.clioweb.org/links/

    I've tried redoing my permalink structure, with no luck. Thanks in advance for any help, and let me know if I need to provide more information.

    Nevermind. For some reason when I changed the post slug from "archives" to "archive" it worked fine. It doesn't make much sense, but it worked.

    What do you mean by changing the post slug? I have the same problem as you did and can't get it fixed.

    if you go to "edit page", then scroll down a little until you find the "post-slug" field...change the text in there.
