Static post page = permalink fail "Error 404"

  • I have set static home and post pages in dashboard > settings > reading

    Whilst it’s worked brilliantly for the homepage I’m having trouble with the permalinks for the posts. I have three posts up and they all have the permalink:

    https://www.alicebrockway.co.uk/http:/www.alicebrockway.co.uk/name

    This means that I can’t share the posts without sharing the whole page which is really awkward.

    I have set a “pretty” permalink structure in dashboard > settings > permalinks > custom structure:

    http:/www.alicebrockway.co.uk/name

    This is working for all pages but not the posts. I don’t know if it’s messing up the post permalinks.

    I’ve searched the help pages and haven’t found anything that seems to help with this (although I am very new and may be missing something). Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    That’s it! Brilliant. I just had /name I’ve now changed it to /%pagename%/%postname%/ and it’s working.

    Thank you =)
