Link to wordpress pages

  • I have created a contact page and added to my Default theme on my local system. From here I added the page and published it.

    I view the website and click on the contact button and the page is not found.
    The URL is https://localhost/Michael-8701/site_flash/wordpress/contact.php.

    The contact page is in C:\wamp\www\Michael-8701\site_flash\wordpress\wp-content\themes\default\.
    Yes I’m new and I need a little help here.
    Thanks…

  • We can’t access the URL you provided because “localhost” is local to your computer only.

    Create a contact page by going to “Pages” in the Dashboard and adding a new page. You might need some plugins if you want a form to go on your contact page. There are plenty of plugins available in the WordPress plugin directory.

    Sorry I didn’t explain my issue that will.
    https://digitalbiz4u.com/wordpress/ is the site I’m trying to get working.

    I added and published a “contact.php” template page to wordpress but I’m unable to link to it from the Flash contact button.

    The contact page is in /wordpress/wp-content/themes/default/ directory.

    I don’t know what to put in this Flash’s actionscript:
    on (release) {
    getURL(“contact.php”);
    }
    So when clicked the website will go to the contact page.
    Thanks,

    Ah, I see. We don’t link to custom templates directly.

    You still need to create a WordPress page. Give it a title of “Contact”. Don’t type anything else in this page (besides the title). Instead, in the page creation screen, look to the right column. You’ll see a section called something like “Use template” and a drop-down menu. The “Contact” page template should be in that menu, if you created the template correctly. Choose that template and save the page.

    Now, in the actionScript, link to that page you just created. It will probably be something like:

    on (release) {
    getURL(“/wordpress/contact/”);
    }

    I don’t know where you stored your flash file in relation to the WordPress installation, but make sure the path is correct in your links.

    Found the contact page but only displays the “html” code.
    Path issue I guess.
    I tried copying the CSS directory into wordpress, wp-content , themes, calotropis ( theme I’m using ).

    Ran the program and still “html” only.
    https://digitalbiz4u.com/wordpress/services/

    /public_html/wordpress/wp-content/themes/calotropis on my ISP server.

    <link rel=”stylesheet” type=”text/css” href=”CSS/mb2.css” /> from the program.
    What to do?????????
