  • I never did figure out the answer. I just kept changing themes until I found one that didn’t have that problem. Thanks for your answers, however.

    Does anyone know the solution to this? I can’t see where it’s written up there. I have the same issue – I’m using the same theme (Hatch) with woocommerce.

    It’s a very good combination except for the products page randomly inserting that list, of “Pages”, “Archives” and “Categories”. I can’t find where it’s from.

    I’ve looked at all the theme template documents and the woocommerce plugin documents. I can’t find any references to it.

    Please look at this page – https://thefinestboutique.com/shop/test-product-3/ – and see if you can figure out how to delete the section under the pictures of “Related Products” – where it lists “Pages”, “Archives” and “Categories”…

    It’s really rather random and obviously doesn’t belong there.

    I’ve struggle for a long time trying to set up an e-commerce site using WordPress. Can’t believe it’s so difficult. I couldn’t figure out WP e-Commerce, but woocommerce seems ok, except for this random insertion of “Pages”, “Archives” and “Categories” on the products page.

    I’d appreciate it if someone could tell me the solution.

    Thanks in advance.

    Et Voila!

    The Permalink suggestion did the trick. Thanks, MoreSympathy.

    Funny thing is, I saw the same suggestion earlier and tried it, but it didn’t work at the time. But this time it did. I don’t know why.

    But anyway, thanks a lot.

    @govpatel, I just hit the “Delete” link. I hope it’s gone – it was a nightmare to try and figure out – very complex. I’ll have to try that another time, when I’m more experienced.

    All the best.

    I think I understand your question now…
    I picked numbers 2 and 3 – left the other ones unchecked.
    I believe this is what Otto suggests in his blog.

    I’m a relative newbie to this work, and I’ve only been with GoDaddy for about a month and this is the first week I’ve done anything challenging. I bought the Deluxe hosting package from them about a week ago. I remember they asked me on the phone (when I called for support about a related thing) to create folders for each of my domains within the hosting space for my main domain.

    So my main domain is theworldnewsheadlines.com and there are folders within that for each of my other (7) domains, including thebookshop.mobi. So these folders are there but they’re still empty.

    Back when I was struggling to get this working, I was trying to figure out where the “homepage” of the thebookshop.mobi was kept, but I couldn’t find it – it wasn’t in its own folder, “thebookshop”, and at that time, there seemed to be nothing inside blogs.dir either. It’s probably still empty.

    In short, I don’t know what either one of those folders is for. At a guess, I thought content that I generate through the bookshop’s admin section (eg posts, pics etc, or something) would magically appear in blogs.dir. But I haven’t added much content yet, just a test piece or two and although I’ve seen new folders appearing in blogs.dir, there seems to be nothing inside them. And nothing at all has appeared in the “thebookshop” folder.

    Back when I was stuck, I tried creating an index page in “thebookshop” directory, but that seemed to interfere with the Multisite, meaning that the index page I had created would appear at the address https://thebookshop.mobi and nothing else. I tried uploading WordPress into “thebookshop”, but that didn’t link up with Multisite as I thought it might. I tried a few long shots without really knowing what I was doing.

    Anyway, I’m sorry, I don’t know how to assign anything to anything in this context. I think Multisite generates those pages itself and it stays in a place I can’t find. I’ve looked.

    That is, if a web page has the URL https://theworldnewsheadlines.com/environmentalistnews/
    that would indicate that if you look in the hosting space, and look in the folder “environmentalistnews”, you should see a page or something. I looked, but there’s nothing there. Same with https://theworldnewsheadlines.com/thebookshop/ – the relevant folder is empty (except that domain now works like I want it to, and shows the bookshop.mobi in the address bar and displays the Multisite page, as explained in my earlier msg^^).

    Basically, I don’t know where the pages are, and I don’t know what is assigned to what.

    You asked/said:

    <<

    Go to https://theworldnewsheadlines.com/wp-admin/network/settings.php?page=dm_admin_page

    See how there are options to select? Which numbers did you pick?

    >>

    Well, what I did was enter my Server IP address for GoDaddy, which is what I’m supposed to do, according to the instructions. But it didn’t work for days, until I did something at GoDaddy in the domain management section. I can’t remember exactly what worked, but anyway, it stopped working soon after (as you probably can see), and then it’ll start working (I hope). I need to gather my thoughts about it. I’m gonna have another go at it later today.

    Anyway, I’m not sure I understand your question – the links seemed to work for me when the domain was working. They didn’t take me anywhere else – just environmentalistnews.com… but anyway, that domain/website has stopped working for some reason.

    Try this one if you have time…
    https://thebookshop.mobi

    It’s on the same network – mine, and uses the same WP MU. But I can’t remember how I got it to work. But I think it was something at the hosting company, not in my installation/admin. I followed Otto’s instructions and checked many others.

    I appreciate your interest and advice.

    Thanks for your reply. Yes, I got it working (I think) and the sense of relief after days of stressing about it… I fell asleep immediately, and am still relaxing before I dive into the work again and map my other websites. I’m not sure that this is the end of this problem, but it’s looking promising.

    As for your specific instructions, and the links you gave, I appreciate them but I’ve been practically living at those URLs for days, and I hadn’t done anything wrong there.

    It turned out that I needed to do something at my hosting company to make it work, so that’s what I did. But I need to test it over a few days before I’m certain it all works properly.

    All the best.
