I tried both the footer-2.php method and using the code:

#footer { display: none; }
.home #footer { display: block; }

and both seemed to do the trick, giving me greater control of where ads appear in page and post footers, which is what I was after, so many thanks for this.

My mistake. Here’s my site – https://golovegreece.com/

What I want to do is have ads in the footer on the front page, but not have these ads appear in subsequent pages.

I’ve got Firebug. How would I use it in this instance? Thanks

Brilliant. Thanks for taking the time to reply.

I saw here – (https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/6343/wordpress-pagination-with-custom-post-type) – that I might need to modify the query code. This seems odd to me. Besides which, I can’t find file in which to do any query modifications. Does modifying query code sound a plausible solution for my issue, or is this a red herring? All other possible solutions appreciated. Thanks

According to my hosts – GoDaddy – everything is in working order their end, including mod rewrite. I’ve a feeling this htaccess is a red herring. I think my issue is more to do with this (https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/6343/wordpress-pagination-with-custom-post-type) and the solution is to modify the query code, whatever that is.

I’ve come to the conclusion that this has got nothing to do with the .htaccess file. This is a problem to do with custom permalinks causing pagination not to work.

When pagination works, i.e. when permalinks are set to Default, pages look like this: https://golovegreece.com/?paged=2.

When pagination doesn’t work, i.e. when permalinks are customised, then pages look like this: https://golovegreece.com/page/2/

Any ideas how to solve this problem? Thanks

It doesn’t matter what custom structure I come up with, either categories, tags or navigation will lead to Error page. Depending on which custom structure I use, I can get categories, tags and navigation to work, but not all at the same time; for example, in structure archives/%postname%/, posts, categories and tags are fine, but navigating pages goes to error 404. Only on Settings>Permalinks>Default – with the ‘ugly’ permalinks – does everything work correctly.

I’ve been through all suggestions so far – I’ve even gone through all my posts to make sure all links that are internal to site are now showing default permalinks and not any sort of customised structure – and still I’m getting 404 error page. Any other suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks

I came up with /archives/%postname%/ – it’s a combination of Numeric and Post Name – because it was the only non-Default setting that allows Posts, Tags and Categories to work, i.e. it avoids going to 404 error page. Problem with /archives/%postname%/ is that page navigation has error page issue.

Your suggested structure – /%archives%/%postname%/ – takes categories, tags, page navigation to error 404.

This is the screenshot of what my Permalinks settings look like:

I think I’ve managed to narrow my problem down a bit, and have started a new thread covering it. The problem is, I think, Paged Navigation Not Working, and here’s the new thread. (Apologies for all the threads).

https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/paged-navigation-not-working?replies=3#post-2805901

I’ve mentioned on that thread the following regarding settings:

Custom permalinks – which I’ve got set at archives/%postname%/ – works with posts, categories and tags, but not when navigating pages.

Only on default does everything work. Day and Name, Month and Name, Numeric, and Post Name work with posts or categories or tags, but not all of them and none of them allows me to navigate pages.

I’ve emailed my host – GoDaddy – several times explaining my problem and asking to check that everything’s in order and they’ve reassured me that it is, but I’ll try them again asking specifically about mod_rewrite.

Not only did I deactivate all plugins, but I deleted every plugin from Dashboard and from the FTP plugins folder – and still no joy. Switching to 2011 theme didn’t do the trick either – same old 404 page.

I also checked out the site on local host and here it works as it should. If I use the Search Site feature in top right hand corner of blog and type in Athens, it comes up with the following URL for page 1

https://localhost/?s=athens

and I can then navigate, using numerical buttons 1, 2, 3, to pages 2 and 3, which appear as:

https://localhost/page/2/?s=athens
https://localhost/page/3/?s=athens

If I try and do the same on external host, the first page will appear as:

https://golovegreece.com/?s=athens (this works); but if I then try to navigate to page 2, it appears as :

https://golovegreece.com/page/2/?s=athens

and goes to error 404 page.

What I have noticed is that if I remove the / separating ‘page’ and ‘2’, so the URL becomes https://golovegreece.com/page2/?s=athens, then this works.

But if I then try and navigate from page 2 to page 3, the following URL appears:

https://golovegreece.com/page2/page/3/?s=athens

and goes to an Error page.

What can I do? All help greatly appreciated. Thanks

Thanks for reply.

So, if everything with .htaccess file is allright, then any other ideas as to what’s causing my Permalinks problems?

Thanks

Thanks for previous answer, saying everything with .htaccess file is in order. I posted question again because I couldn’t see my original post in list and thought it had gone astray. Apologies to moderator for this. Wasn’t trying to bump question up. Please delete original post.

Back to Permalinks: if everything with .htaccess file is allright, then any other ideas as to what’s causing my Permalinks problems?
