    Hi Guys

    Im really really new to wordpress and just stumbling through at the moment. I have built a website http://www.sunrisebg.co.uk.

    I have my Home page set as my home page(static) and my blog page set as my post page.

    now my blog page is
    my blog url is http://www.sunrisebg.co.uk/property-management-2

    but when I make a post it goes to
    http://www.sunrisebg.co.uk/property-management-2.html

    I have checked my settings and they seem to be in order, but as I said Im new to this so it's probably something really simple but not very technical with this wordpress thing just yet.

    Any help would be appreciated, many thanks

    Try resetting your custom permalinks back to the default setting. If this works, then review Using_Permalinks before setting a custom permalink structure back up again.

    Hi esmi. I have been playing around and have noticed a few things. I can Tick the allow comments box on any page and the comment box will show up. but not on my blog page. If I click the title of the Post it takes me to another page where I can leave a comment.

    Have posted two more test post and the same thing. can you not just post on the main blog page and just comment on that? or do I need to set categories etc to stop the page getting full. sorry to ask so much questions. I've only had the site up and running around two weeks and have 2 or 4 place ranking for some of my key words but I really need to get this right as quick as I can. I think the blog will help with ranking and also be fun to do as well. But as I say I'm new so need to make sure I get it right, slugs, categorised permalinks and I haven't got a clue lol :-)

    Many Thanks

    Hi Ive noticed something else as well now. I thought I would remove the blog page as my post page just to see what happened. The post that i had made disappeared but 4 comment boxes were on display. I must have messed it up pretty bad somewhere .. sorry for being a pain

    :-)
