Hmm.
Abhishek, thank you. I noticed the backslash following your blog address url on the image on your site page that you referenced.
I dabbled and added a backslash following my blog address url and also site url just to try this. When I saved the settings in the admin, the backslashes disappeared as if some filter in wp wouldn’t allow them, but I checked the site page anyway (using just the root url) and it worked! So I’m definitely happy with this, but of course not totally sure why.
Anyway, thank you for your help.
