I have, thank you.
Do you see, or know of anything that may prevent this from working?

I have contacted my host for help, but I’m not totally sure what I need to do to get it working.

As the FAQ says: some servers require additional configuration, while others don’t work at all. The FAQ describes some things that might work. If they don’t, it’s because of a limitation or quirk of your particular server.

Re: 404 with clean urls and I have tried multiple config for .htaccess

Thanks for taking the time zem. I appreciate it. I’m new to this and wanted to know if there was some poorly documented aspect I was missing.
I contacted the host and we were able to work it out.
