Ok I finally got Dolphin 6.1 installed after two attempts, but some of the navigation links such as Blogs, Photos, Videos, Music, Groups, Classifieds, Events and Articles do not work. When I click on them I get the following error

Error 404 - Not found

Your browser can't find the document corresponding to the URL you typed in.

Did I miss a few steps in installation or configuration?

I re-downloaded Dolphin and FTP each file seperately to make sure the files uploaded were complete.

I am new at this, so any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you, Dan Brouwers

I noticed that when I clicked on the Blogs link that it took me to mysite.com/blog instead of mysite.com/blog.php

I also double checked the ".htaccess" file and I think it is correct, I've posted it below so more experienced members can view it and correct me if I'm wrong.

I hope somebody can give me advice on how to correct my problem.

Thank you, Dan Brouwers

You need to make sure you have mod_rewrite on your server.

mydatery,

I wasn't sure if that was something that I could find if I look in the root of my web server via FTP or if I needed to look in my control panel or what, so I contacted my hosting provider, I will post my findings when it is repaired.

Hi danbrouwers!

Mydatery is right, youneed to have ModRewrite or, you can turn off Friendly URLs via admin panel -> settings -> permalinks.

Regards, Sasha

Sasha,

I have ModRewrite.

I just turned off the permalinks and nothing changed so I turned them back on.

I'll keep researching.

Thanks, Dan Brouwers

Ok..........problem solved, I had to add to the ".htaccess" file!

After "RewriteEngine on"
I added "RewriteBase /"

and I left the permalinks settings enabled in the admin control panel.

Hope this helps someone else.
