Need Help For Setting Up Blog. I am using the service WordPress.

Hello.

I am using WordPress and my blog address is http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/

I can post and I can edit the themes and many other things but when I create new pages and click on them, an error page shows which is something like this:

When I check my FileManager, I see that the folders "blog/about", "blog/graphics" and "blog/cool_links" have not been created!

Does anyone know the reason for this and always better if someone even knows the remedy!

I am sure that you have to CHMOD certain folders so that Wordpress's scripts have the permissions to create the folders and files it needs. Check through the installation files again, I can't remember which folders you have to do what to at the moment.

I didn't actually get as what am I to do actually, should I create those folders first and then create a new page or something. What is CHMOD, could you be a little more specific, I am new to this hosting thing and this is my first day!

A Xisto member has written on CHMOD (also known as change mode) on files.

See if you can look that over and utilize it to your installation.

The folders mentioned, i.e. about, graphics and cool_links, do not appear to be in your directory anymore. Therefore this topic is closed. If you would like to continue this discussion please PM any moderators and request to be reopened.
