Hmm, did you chose to use permalinks ? (any other option than the default one) ?
If yes, you neef an .htaccess file with, inside :
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
Not sure it’s the reason you’re bugged, mind you…
I did not do anything. Just the default.
edit: please see my next post
thanks for your reply. What if I don’t want to use pretty permalinks? I didn’t set it up to do that. Does it default to that?
tsrainer, I had a mini-epiphany right after I wrote that post. Here’s my new thoughts. The problem is that your theme has the “About” and “Archive” links hard-coded as permalinks.
***
The link that your blog is using for your About page is “http://blog.staceyrainerphotography.com/about/” and your Archives is similar (ends with “/archives/”). Those are pretty permalink URLs. I downloaded the theme. It looks like your theme (3-Column-Pressrow) has those links hard-coded:
<li><a class="archives" href="<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>/archives/">archives</a></li>
<li><a class="about" href="<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>/about/">about</a></li>
As I see it, you have three options:
(1) Change to a different theme.
(2) Enable permalinks (which since you are on an Apache server, shouldn’t be that difficult).
(3) Manually edit the links (they are in the header.php file of your template).
If you want to use pretty permalinks, then read through the Codex page, Using Permalinks. This plugin may be helpful: Ask Apache RewriteRules Viewers.
If you want to change the links in your theme, then let us know. I won’t waste time listing that how-to here.
I got it fixed, mostly. The archives page doesn’t work, but that may be because I’ve not done enough entries for their to be an archive.
Thanks so much for your help!!
