    Hi!
    Whenever I click on the post titles on my blog page they are linking to my About page. Where can I change this link – what I’d like to happen is if you click on the post title it just brings the post up bigger on it’s own page. Any help is appreciated!
    Thanks!

    Also, the post listings in the sidebar are linking the same – to the About page

    Hi Lib,

    I saw the issue you are talking about.

    It seems you have hooked a function wrongly.

    If you know Php/Wordpress can you please look into your theme’s function.php file for the hook/function.

    Thanks

    I looked in the theme function.php and can not find anywhere it talks about hook/function together. The only place it talks about hook is in the beginning – this is what it has:
    *Note that this function is hooked into the after_setup_theme hook, which runs
    * before the init hook. The init hook is too late for some features, such as indicating
    * support post thumbnails.

    Is there something else I could look for or in another php?
    Thanks for any help – I’m a total newbie.

    Okay, so could one of my plugin’s be causing this? I would just like to fix it the simplest way possible 🙂

    Yes a plugin can also be also be a culprit here.

    First switch a theme and check, if the problem still persists, if yes then its because of a plugin and if not then you might have hooked a function wrongly in the present theme.

    If it is due to a plugin, deactivate plugin one at a time and check which one fixes the issue.

    Thanks

    If I change the theme will all of my stuff be lost? Also, I’ve never messed with the function php so I’m assuming it’s likely a plugin problem, would that be correct?

    Okay, I’ve figured out that it is a function problem – as it doesn’t change when I changed themes. Could you show me what the coding should look like for this function/hook?
    Thank you

    Have you edited any of the theme files?

    Everything I’ve changed has been in the Stylesheet, mostly just colors

    I reckon it’s a plugin, then. Can you try disabling them one by one and then checking to see if any of them are having an effect on the links?

    I did this, not a plugin problem. I’m recalling that I changed the footer (removed a name) and also the header, centered it & added the photo to the sidebar. Could something have been accidentally changed through those?

    Ok, figured it out, the permalink settings were set to custom structure with “/about”. I selected post name, and the problem is fixed. Thanks for helping athemes and Maruti.

    Glad that you figured it out.

    Seems like we were making a mountain out of a molehill 😉

    Permalinks structure is something we should have checked 🙂
