[Support request] Can’t view published pages

[Peter]

I published 4 pages on my website but although they are marked as Published and public they are not viewable on the site. Can anyone help me please?

[David]

Hi there,

do you have a URL for one of the missing pages that i can check ?

[Peter]

Hi David, thanks for getting in touch. Yes, here is one: https://theveganvarsity.com/diet/food/is-beer-vegan/

[David]

That link opens for me. What happens when you try ?

[Peter]

I’ve not tried the link, but it (and the three other pages I have published) are nowhere to be seen in the site itself: theveganvarsity.com

[David]

OK, so you need to either add those pages to your Menu ( in Appearance > Menus ) or as a link in another page or in your Sidebar.

I see that the Page is a child of the Food Page which is a child of the Diet page.

Would you expect to see a link to that page on the Food Page ?

[Peter]

That’s correct. I want the page to be visible under the food section. How do I do that? Then when I publish subsequent food pages, for these to be added here too. And how can I populate the home page with the last few published pages?

Sorry for the barrage of questions, hopefully this should be the last of them!

Thanks David

I think what you are looking for is an archive of food, just like blog.

In that case, I would recommend using posts instead of pages.

Then you can add food as a category, so all the food-related posts will show under the food archive.

Hi Ying. Thank you for getting back to me.

No, these will be static posts, its definitely pages i need. These pages are already under their respective parent pages. How can I make them visible when I click on that sub-category, firstly, (at the minute they can only be viewed if the person has the exact URL) and how can I populate my homepage with my latest posts?

Thanks in advance…

Pete

Ok, I can view the pages now, yay! How do I go about putting the most recent posts on my main page, please?

Is your main page a static page? If so, you can add a query loop block from GenerateBlocks plugin.
