Thank you, I resolved the mystery. I was using “private” rather than “public” viewing mode, and after switching to “public” all of my pages showed up in my menu. Because I am still developing the site and not ready for it to go public, I made it public just long enough to do the editing and then moved back to private.

More on my original post at the top of this page:

My blog move from TypePad to WP still is not working. If you go to https://www.danieldolan.com, you will see two links (bio and blog), both of which lead to 404 error messages. I am still waiting to see if perhaps the name server change I made yesterday for my domain will solve the problem (see post directly above).

But another clue: In the WP dashboard I can see the contents (posts) from my TypePad blog in my list of posts. When I look at those posts everything looks fine (minus images, which I have not yet moved from Typepad into WP, but that can come later). My bio page, which is the critical link from my front page and all I really care about, is included as one of those posts. You can see the WP bio page here (notice that the TypePad logo still shows in the browser window, and the island image at the top of my danieldolan.com page is missing): https://www.danieldolan.com/2012/11/10/bio/

Now click on “5” under Recent Posts, and it goes to a strangely formatted version of my TypePad blog front page. I checked the permalink url for the WP bio page, and copied it into the html for this WP front page. You will see that the Bio link now works on this WP page.

So now I wonder what to make of all of this. What is preventing the https://www.danieldolan.com page Bio link from working?

Thanks for the idea WPyogi. I just re-named my name servers on godaddy to point to NS1.justhost.com and NS2.justhost.com, names I just found on the JustHost site.

The name servers I had been using (NS1.PIPEDNS.COM and NS2.PIPEDNS.COM) were given to me when I opened my hosting account with JustHost in Jan. 2011, and a google search shows them associated with JustHost, but maybe they changed since 2011?

I will wait for the nameserver change to take affect and check my blog again.

Meanwhile, any thoughts from other forum members?
