That was it – I added an .htaccess file to the subdomain and I can get to the blog now.

Thanks again, Halty – Jan

Aha! Yes, there is an .htaccess file in the next level up with the following (among other items):

RewriteRule ^([a-zA-Z0-9_-]+)$ topmenupage.php?menupagename=$1
RewriteRule ^([a-zA-Z0-9_-]+)/$ topmenupage.php?menupagename=$1

I can’t experiment with this tonight, but will try in a few days.

Thanks for the lead, Halty! – Jan

Not Found

The requested URL /topmenupage.php was not found on this server.
Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

Does anyone know what the ” /topmenupage.php” from the 404 msg is? Is there some sort of redirect from index.php ?

Yes, the index.php file is there. That’s what’s got me flummoxed – I’ve accessed it directly, from the dashboard, and from my file manager – they all give the 404 msg.

The subdomain folder was empty when I started the install and I haven’t changed anything in the folder other than the automatic install.

Here are the entire contents of the subdomain:

Well, the subdomain didn’t work either. First I uninstalled WordPress from its previous location. Then I used an old subdomain that we don’t use – it was empty until I loaded WordPress on it.

I still get the dashboard okay, but this time I get a 404 error trying to access the site itself. I’ve tried accessing it from the Dashboard, from copying & pasting the URL from the General Settings screen (https://drupal.cfidsselfhelp.org), and from clicking on the index.php link in my file manager. I don’t get how the file can be listed in the file manager but give a 404! I’ve no idea what to do now.

Any help/ideas would be very much appreciated.

Thanks, Christine.

No, I have nothing else in the Courses folder. I’ll try a subdomain.

Much obliged! – Jan
