Novice WordPress user needs help, please?

    I recently set up a wordpress blog on my family’s site but just realized that every link I click on (leave a comment, archives, etc) only takes the user back to the home page of our site. people can’t leave comments or navigate to past posts. How can this be corrected, where do I go to fix this, etc?

    Any help would be appreciated!

    The first things to check are always…

    Try switching to Default permalinks structure (or just re-saving)
    Deactivate all plugins
    Try switching to the default theme
    Deactivate any Custom Menus

    See if any of those fixes the problem.

    Thanks for the quick reply! I’ve tried all of your suggestions and they don’t seemed to have fixed my issue. Any other suggestions?

    Thanks!

    Can you post a link to your site?

    I can’t get the blog to load at all. The main site comes up fine.

    Seems to be working for me. I can click into your merry christmas and hello world blog posts, get linked directly to your comments, and leave via your outbound links. Did you change anything?

    I can get it to load now but it is very slow. I tried the Leave a Reply link on one post and it worked fine.

    I didn’t change anything. Under the Merry Christmas post, when I click on the ‘Leave a reply’ this is where it takes me back to our home page for example, and every other link I click….

    Sorry, I don’t see a “Leave a Reply” link. There is a title that says it, but it’s not a link. Also, I was able to post a comment (a reply). Still haven’t come across anything that redirects me to the front page.
