Hi

I've got an embarrassing problem. I'm supposed to be technical (...) - but I seem to not be able to Add Pages to my website here:
The theme is Flash by Themegrill.

I go to Pages | Add New, add a new page, add content, save it etc - check it's published:

But here (and other pages) - it is not available:


Am I missing a step?

Many thanks

Bill

Hi,

Have you added the pages to your menu on the menu settings?

Best wishes,

Angela

Hi Bill,

It looks like the web server is not set up properly. It is not configured to support the "fancy" permalinks you have set. You need to ask your hosting company to turn on rewrite rules if they are using Apache or change the configuration appropriately if they are using a different web server like Nginx or Lightspeed. 

See this page for help

Thank you, Angela  - I'll look at that.

Thank you, Mike - I'll try that. I set up the webserver on a Bytemark VPS.

That's my Friday night entertainment.

Thanks all and all the best for now

Bill

Thank you, Mike.

I just had to add the following highlighted text to the Apache config file:

       Options Includes FollowSymLinks
       AllowOverride All
       DirectoryIndex index.php index.html index.htm

Festive greetings! 👏🏽👏🏽

Bill
