404 error
Permalink
Just a bit of background. This is my first real site I am building. The Concrete5 tools are amazing for beginners like me, but I am having an issue.
I searched a few keywords, but none were jsut like my problem. When I create a new page either from my [dashboard] or from [add page], I cna create it jsut fine, but once it is saved and I use the links on the site map or from the navigation at the top - I get the 404 error.
Now if I go to the [dashboard] and view the page from there, all looks fine.
any ideas?
fyi - just so its not me, you can visit my site and see if its doing it for others too

I think I remember clicking something about pretty urls yes but really I dont know what they're for, so it would be no loss at this point not to have them.
Your suggestion led me to somethign I clicked wrong stopping the whole site from working.
Yes, I had the Pretty URL checked and I don't know why because I don't know what it does, but below it, I thought restricting the site to non-public view was how to restrict some content.
Little did I know it restricted everything from beyond the main page.
Changed it to public and it works great now - thank you very much for the lead.
Now I have to figure out how to let people register as members.

.
siteroot/register.php works, or will work shortly. It isn't implicitly linked from anywhere in the version I am working with, but it is in fact there :)
Did you past the code for pretty urls into your .htaccess file of your website?
