individual posts resulting in blank page

  • Hello,

    I’m designing my own theme, and am having trouble with individual posts. I’m able to separate two different post categories and post them both on one page, and have created a separate page for both categories that list every post for each category.

    The link for each individual post, however, produces a blank page. Changing the Permalink Settings from default results in (in firefox) a 404 ‘not found’ message.

    I’ve edited single.php a number of times, cannot get anything to load. I’ve changed themes, and can access a single post, so I don’t think it is an htaccess issue.

    Am I missing some php somewhere?

    The test site is here: meta.uoregon.edu/blog

    any help is ‘preciated…..

  • Are you able to get your posts alright when you switch to the default WP theme?

    yes…I can see the posts on the index page and on each page that lists the specific categories, but when clicking the title of each individual post, I’m wanting each individual post to display (via single.php)…but getting a blank page…

    I’m guessing I’m missing something (perhaps on index.php ?) like… is_single() …?

    whoops…

    sorry Krishna, didn’t answer your question…

    yes, by switching themes, I’m able to link to individual posts, and they display correctly. The theme I’m attempting to use is one I’m creating from scratch.

    Well, like you, I have also come to the conclusion that the theme has errors. Some nice places to start with can be:
    https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Theme_Development
    https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Validating_a_Website (your site currently shows mark up errors that need to be addressed).

    Sorry, I have nothing more to suggest.
