    error message.

    Hi I'm having some issues with the site. I was able to log in yesterday fine after the updates on Sunday but today once I go in anytime I try to go into a new thread or any other button I get an error message stating the address is no longer good. This is the message I get both at work and home Can you tell me a so so computer user what to do please.


    404 - Not Found

    The page you are trying to access does not exist.
    If this error persists, please contact the website webmaster.


    If you are the webmaster of this site make sure that:

    •You have uploaded correctly your files to the public_html directory which is the web-root of your account;
    •You have not misspelled the URL. Bear in mind that letters are case sensitive and no white spaces are recommended;
    •In case you have applied SEO - SEF URL rewriting rules, make sure you have re-named the htaccess.txt file to .htaccess. If there is already a non-empty .htaccess file read it and make sure the necessary rules are un-commented.

    Check the web address in the address area. If you used a previously bookmarked link, it might say "/forums" after the www.debtfreefanatics.com part.

    That's how mine looked when I got that error message today, so I backspaced the /forums part, and tried again, and it was fine, so I deleted my bookmark and re-bookmarked it.

    Try Plan to Eat meal planning software. You can import recipes, type in your own, grab recipes from your friends, and it will populate a shopping list for you based on the recipes you plan to use.

    Attitude is the difference between an ordeal and an experience.

    You can either live in the past, or look towards the future. You cannot simultaneously do both with success.

    I get it whether I use my bookmarked link, or if I click on the link directly from the Home page.

    Here's the link that appears in my address bar when I get the 404 error message:

    It's obviously got to be an issue with something I'm doing, but not sure what or how to fix. I've done the Ctrl + F5 command, logged off, logged back on, removed the bookmarked link... any other tips or things I can try?

    I really wanted a full screenshot of the browser for the first pick because I wanted to see what the URL you were on was.

    I cannot reproduce this, not from the home page - so I wanted to know the exact URL you saw when you saw the home page.
