WordPress MU

When I click on my main blog I'm directed to domain.com/blog -- no problemo yet.

When I click any of the navigation buttons from that page (domain.com/blog) I get directed to domain.com/index.php/blog/page/2 and get the 'ol there's nothing here message. I tried removing the index.php in the address field (domain.com/blog/page/2) and I get the content from the first page again. Obviously this continues happening no matter what page number I try to access.

Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I got a subdomain install.

Thanks,
Ricky

If it's stuffing the index.php in there, you may have typed that in a field somewhere. Look under the Site Admin -? Blog menu, edit the main blog, and check.

Thanks Andrea. I checked my blog admin section and the only thing i could find with index.php was in the permalink structure : /index.php/%year%/%monthnum%/%day%/%postname%/

That shouldn't have anything to do with it, right? Also if I remove the index.php from the URL I get the same blog content on every page. Me confused badly.

Could the page-navi function be stuffing this in there?

I forgot to add that pagination in archives woks just fine.

index.php shouldn't be in the permalink structure.

@kgraeme - thx. do i just remove that from the structure and everything works? or will that break existing links?

anyone can answer this, not just kgraeme

If it's in the permalinsk menu and you don't want it in there, then yes - take it out.

If it still doesn't work right, you may have another issues going on.

ok, almost got it but something strange thing happened. i took index.php out of the permalink structure and now its just/%year%/%monthnum%/%day%/%postname%/. Click on posts and everything is fine.

When I click on 'blog' on the navigation bar I get the first page of the blog at domain.com/blog. Yet now the page-navi buttons at the bottom of the blog are missing. But if I type in the URL domain.com/blog/page/2 it works brilliantly. both index.php, single.php have the following call for paginate.php so I;m not surew why it's the buttons aren't showing up.

'<?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . '/paginate.php'); ?>'

Check and see if that's in the page.php template.

I don't have a page.php in my theme. I got single.php and index.php. Both have the '<?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . '/paginate.php'); ?>'

andrea,
my paginate.php file looks like this:

'<?php if (is_single()) { ?>
<div id="post-navigator-single">
<div class="alignleft"><?php previous_post_link('«%link') ?></div>
<div class="alignright"><?php next_post_link('%link»') ?></div>
</div>

<?php } else if (is_page()) { ?>

<div id="post-navigator">
<?php link_pages('Page ', '', 'number'); ?>
</div>

<?php } else if (is_tag()) { ?>

<div id="post-navigator">
<div class="alignright"><?php next_posts_link('Older Entries « '); ?></div>
<div class="alignleft"><?php previous_posts_link('» Newer Entries'); ?></div>
</div>

<?php } else { ?>

<div id="post-navigator">
<?php if (function_exists('custom_wp_pagenavi')) : ?>
<?php custom_wp_pagenavi(); ?>
<?php else : ?>
<div class="alignleft"><?php posts_nav_link('',__('« Newer Posts'),'') ?></div>
<div class="alignright"><?php posts_nav_link('','',__('Older Posts »')) ?></div>
<?php endif; ?>
</div>

<?php } ?>'

and I could email you the custom_wp_pagenavi code if you'd like to look at that.

still looking for an answer to this question....anyone got any ideas?
