    I’ve just started building my first wordpress theme, and I’ve hit a wall.

    When I click a link to a post, it follows the correct URL but displays the homepage. Best I can tell is the index page has somehow taken on the permalink for the posts, too.

    I’ve tried re-doing posts, deleting them and making new ones, but it doesn’t show any change.

    Here is the page in question: https://gandyprinters.com/wordpress2/artists/

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks,
    Rebecca

  • Check with your hosts that mod_rewrite is running on your server.

    Thanks for the quick response, but I don’t see how this helps me?

    I haven’t done anything to alter any links. From what I’ve read, mod_write pertains to making cleaner permalinks, and that seems irrelevant here.

    I put together a loop to display thumbnails and titles that link to the post. That works fine; when you click a thumbnail it sends you to the right url. That url is calling the index page instead of the post.

    Please, actually look at the page I linked to better understand.

    You are using custom permalinks. Custom permalinks rely upon mod-rewrite. See Using_Permalinks.

    I’ve read through this multiple times and I really need help understanding it. From what I can see under my permalink settings everything matches what should be done according to Using_Permalinks. All I did was select one of the common settings.

    This is the first theme I’ve coded from scratch, so it’s very possible that I have missed something that is causing this to happen, but I haven’t been able to find it.

    Nevermind. I’m going to start over and try a different route.
