    I just switched my site over to wordpress from the original HTML CSS that I had with it. as I was updating the CSS and HTML on the new site I did something and messed it up. The problem is, I have no idea what I did to mess it up ha ha.

    The problem is, when I go to my site (designthegraphic.jasberger.com) instead of showing the most recent post and all posts before it, it shows the “page not found” error, but if I click ‘search’ with nothing in the search bar it brings up what I want it to.

    How do I fix that?

    Re-upload a fresh copy of the Twenty Eleven theme using FTP.
    http://wordpress.org/extend/themes/twentyeleven

    Do not edit the Twenty Eleven theme. It is the default WordPress 3.2 theme and having access to an unedited version of the theme is vital when dealing with a range of site issues. Create a child theme for your changes. Once your child theme is active, we should be able to help with the customisation.

    Thanks! I did that, and it fixed the theme but the “you need to search for what you are looking for” still comes up

    Have you published any posts yet? Do you want a static front page?
