Can’t set up React – Tutorial images diferent from what it shows

  • HI there, I have been trying to set up my react app but have not been successful, and having a hard time because the documentation shows different then what it shows on my wp-admin.

    Where it says to choose the slug, now it shows to choose a page. But It does not list any of the pages I have. I tried clicking create page, it shows an error (No details) But it still does not show anything on the website… Is there an extra config I need to do on my react app? or the site?


    I have uploded the build folder to the correct place as well… Does my app name on the react project has to be the Exact same? Like on the json file?


    Can anyone help please, this would be the perfect solution for my project.

    Did you use the Getting-Started-Guide on https://rockiger.com/en/reactpress/getting-started/. I totally forgot to update the content there. I updated the Getting Started Guide.

    For a more detailed explanation you can try the full React with WordPress Tutorial. It doesn’t have any pictures from the admin area, but its focus is moren on the development process.

    Hi @rockiger thank you for getting back to me. I see it now. I did not follow the Tutorial, I did have a glimpse, but it was very unrelated to what my app does.


    The page is now showing on the admin panel, but it is still not working.

    Is there a specific set up I need to do on the React Router? Or config? Is it explained in the Tutorial?

    Also is there a way to remove the Theme default header and footer?

    Do I have to user HashRouter, insted of the Browser router? Or can I add a page for each of my pages and that way it will work?

    Also I got it to show something but not all the info? Can I still call other end points? like my AWS database etc?

    Using BrowserRouter is possible. You can activate it in the advanced section of your app. But support is sketchy, because then WordPress’s routing needs to work in sync with React’s routing, which is not always possible. Using BrowserRouter is hit or miss.

    With HashRouter you are on the save side. Your React app is a standard React app. Only the base URL is changed from / to the location of where the app embedded.
