pages not found

By accident are you using the techinque described here:
How can I have a static front page and posts display on a page called Blog?

thanks but reading through that i dont think thats the issue.

if anything is:
dsa/home
dsa/contact

it fails.

Where did you install WordPress? What url is entered as the site url in Admin/Settings/General? Have you set up a custom permalink structure? What are you using to create the page menu at the top of the site? It doesn’t look like wp_list_pages or wp_page_menu to me

hi

WordPress is installed on our dedicated server. If you dont use this theme it still doesn’t work.

to get to the admin panel i go to: https://dev.iceni-tv.co.uk/dsa/wp-login.php

doesn’t work even if i use a default theme.

Below is the navigation code.

<!-- Main Menu -->
    <div id="menu">
        <ul>
            <?php
            // Get array of pages and output with CSS classes to allow for image replacements
            $pages = get_pages('sort_column=menu_order&parent=0');
            foreach ($pages as $key=>$page) {
                ?>
                <li>
                    <a href="<?php echo $page->guid; ?>" title="<?php echo $page->post_title; ?>"
                    class="<?php echo $page->post_name; ?><?php echo (($urlParts[0] == $page->post_name OR ($urlParts[0] == '' AND $page->post_name == 'home')) ? ' selected' : ''); ?>">
                        <?php echo $page->post_title; ?>
                    </a>
                </li>
                <?php
            }
            ?>
        </ul>
    </div>

Try resetting your custom permalinks to the default setting for now and see if that helps.

thats fixed that, but to get it working with perma links i need to sort htaccess?

If you make the .htaccess file in the WP root writable, WP will take care of that for you.
