Thank you! * Only thing left to resolve is where the Pages link to. My site needs three links on the front page – About, Library, and Museum. Everything at Steamboats.com can be sorted into those three categories. “About” is one html file; “Library” is 127 html files; “Museum” is 215 html pages. * I do not want these to be WordPress. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [broken link on theme – Twenty Ten 1.1 by the WordPress team](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/broken-link-on-theme-twenty-ten-11-by-the-wordpress-team/) * Thread Starter [norimuster](https://wordpress.org/support/users/norimuster/) * (@norimuster) * [15 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/broken-link-on-theme-twenty-ten-11-by-the-wordpress-team/#post-1760918) * I didn’t send you there, but DELETE /about.

DELETE those folders and files. You will break WordPress. * The folders and files DO NOT exist. That’s okay. WordPress handles it! * The reason I set these up is that I could not rewrite the whole permalink. It only let me revise the final word of the link. So I set up folders, created folders in the FTP, then redirected to my old site. * Is there somewhere I could edit the permalinks and sent people directly to the old site? The front page is the only page where I want blogging. The rest of the site contains reference files and collections that I set up and do not change, no comments, no blogging. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [broken link on theme – Twenty Ten 1.1 by the WordPress team](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/broken-link-on-theme-twenty-ten-11-by-the-wordpress-team/) * Thread Starter [norimuster](https://wordpress.org/support/users/norimuster/) * (@norimuster) * [15 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/broken-link-on-theme-twenty-ten-11-by-the-wordpress-team/#post-1760915) * First, here are those URLS you wanted to see: [http://steamboats.com/wordpress/wp-admin/options-general.php](http://steamboats.com/wordpress/wp-admin/options-general.php) * General Settings Site Title steamboats dot com Tagline brought to you by people who love steamboats In a few words, explain what this site is about.

Then set Permalinks (within Pages edit/quick edit) as follows: * [http://steamboats.com/wordpress/about](http://steamboats.com/wordpress/about) [http://steamboats.com/wordpress/museum](http://steamboats.com/wordpress/museum) [http://steamboats.com/wordpress/library](http://steamboats.com/wordpress/library) * Then, in the FTP, I set up folders within the WordPress folder as follows: * [http://steamboats.com/wordpress/about/index.html](http://steamboats.com/wordpress/about/index.html) [http://steamboats.com/wordpress/museum/index.html](http://steamboats.com/wordpress/museum/index.html) [http://steamboats.com/wordpress/library/index.html](http://steamboats.com/wordpress/library/index.html) * Each index.html contains redirect code, directing people to older parts of the site. Before adding WordPress, Steamboats.com was already several hundred pages long. * There is little other code that I have changed. I added some Widgets and Plug- ins, few of which are fully functioning. * In that WordPress options page you sent me (Settings, Permalinks), it gave me these options: Common settings * Default [http://steamboats.com/wordpress/?p=123](http://steamboats.com/wordpress/?p=123) * Day and name [http://steamboats.com/wordpress/2010/11/09/sample-post/](http://steamboats.com/wordpress/2010/11/09/sample-post/) * Month and name [http://steamboats.com/wordpress/2010/11/sample-post/](http://steamboats.com/wordpress/2010/11/sample-post/) * Numeric [http://steamboats.com/wordpress/archives/123](http://steamboats.com/wordpress/archives/123) * Custom Structure [I filled in: /about] * Maybe I should choose one of the above, not custom. * I write all the code for the site. Nobody else builds it, but people send me photos and things to post. I got WordPress to simplify the posting process. * Since I keep a log of all the postings, I want to be able to make back ups of anything that goes on the site through WordPress. * Any help would be appreciated.

I fixed that link problem, but now it just goes to the folder where I have a redirect to my contact/about page.
