Thanks to Jan for cleaning up my original post but, to be clear, website.com is just an example.

The specific category I’m talking about is:

https://letsflamingo.com/travelling-with-kids/travel/

But, instead of displaying a feed of all the posts categorised as ‘travel’, I would like to display a static landing page, using this template (which is a standard post template within the theme I’m using):

https://letsflamingo.com/travelling-with-kids/lifestyle/fullwidth-post/

Update:

I have tried importing the XML into a completely fresh, completely separate WordPress install and the same items are failing, so it appears the problem is with the XML itself.

Update:

I have tried the following additional steps, also sadly without managing to solve the problem:

• Installed the theme from the source site onto the destination site, to eliminate any potential theme conflicts.
• Changed permissions on the “uploads” folder from 755 to 777.
• Manually copied all media from the source site’s “uploads” folder to the desination site’s “uploads” folder before attempting an import.

I’m now at a complete loss as I can’t think of any other troubleshooting steps.

Just giving this a bump as I enter day two of trying to solve this problem.

Update:

I’ve also completed the following steps (sadly, without positive results):

• Restored the WordPress core files
• Restored the .htaccess file

Thanks Ulrich but I’ve managed to resolve it.

For anyone else having the same issue, the problem was that I was adding the attributes with capitalised letters which the plugin then changed to lowercase.

So I added {{attributeName}} and the plugin would save it as {{attributename]].

So when I used the capitalised version in the code, the plugin didn’t recognise it.

Hope that helps!

I don’t really know what singlepost.php is. I assumed it was the file that dealt with all the content within an individual blog post.

Where is the correct place that I should be implementing the code.

Thanks for your help!

I’ve actually tried the <?php wp_link_pages( $args ); ?> fix already which didn’t work, so I obviously wasn’t doing it properly.

I basically just added it to my singlepost.php code and then tried to ise the nextpage tag.

Is there a simple way of fixing it as I’m afraid that link you’ve sent is a bit beyond my level of expertise.

I added https:// to the URL in the href code at it works fine now.

Your post is 4 months old so I’m assuming that you’ve either fixed the problem or given up. But just in case and for others who are having the same problem, I was able to fix it using these comprehensive instructions that really should have come with the theme itself:

That totally solved the problem. Thank you so much!

Originally the code said

<a href="https://andrewmorgan.info/" title="Return to the frontpage">Home</a>

… and I was trying to get rid of the tooltip.

Thanks again for the advice!

One further point: I have 2 domains associated with my hosting package. If I install WordPress to the main domain it seems to work fine. However, if I install it to the addon domain (which is a subfolder in the root folder and the domain I am trying to use for my blog) it is coming back with this 404 error.

I have exactly the same error. All the support answers I have found so far seem to deal with the issue of people making changes to their settings and then getting this error. The fix is always suggested as going into phpadmin to change the settings.

However, I am getting this error off a brand new install of WordPress and these suggestions don’t work for me.

I would really appreciate any ideas as I am now in day 4 of WordPress’s alleged “Famous 5-Minute Install”

In case anyone reads my comment and has the same problem:

I was being thick. “.fantasticodata” is a hidden file and wasn’t viewable through my cPanel’s file manager. I had to use an FTP client to find and remove the installed_in_root.php file

What if you have removed the wordpress install using the wizard, removed all databases from your hoting and don’t have a file in the root called:

– fantasticodata
– fantver.php or
– fantfiles.txt

I’ve been struggling with this for days ??
