404 error message

I have just installed textpattern 4.2.0 and am trying to learn how to work with it (I’m new to textpattern and CMS). My site is here: http://voicesoffriends.org/

When I click on About or Articles I get a 404 page not found error. I have set my directory indexes to index.php and it still doesn’t work.

Any advice?

Hi marygabel,

Welcome to txp.

  • Did you upload the .htaccess file? If you are a mac user it is invisible.
  • Does your server support clean urls? If it does not you will need to go to Admin>preferences and set the “Permanent link mode” to messy.

My suspicion is that it is the first for which there is a FAQ you may have a look at.

Re: 404 error message

Excellent! That did it. I had created an .htaccess file but it was missing some of the script you provided. I went into my file manager through my control panel and edited the .htaccess file there. Voila!

Thank you SO much.
