    Wayfinder is not picking up the url of my site anymore. I am not sure what i did to it if anything but it bascially stopped working and defaults to the name/path given by my isp. It used to use the registerd url assigned to the site and everything worked fine. What does that suggest to you all?
    site is :
    www.crisisbalochistan.com

    Thanks
    Albert

      Looking at page source shows that base href is set
      <base href=’http://www50.pair.com/alarew/’ />

        Hi,
        thanks for the response. This is what is in the code:

        <base href=’[(site_url)]’ />

        This was working fine until it started not working fine. Not sure what else i should do now .. Directly type in ’crisisbalochistan.com’?

          I’m a little confused, probably due to lack of sleep, grin, but what is the relationship between http://www50.pair.com/alarew/’ and www.crisisbalochistan.com? Are you using a redirect? On which of these two domains is the site actually sitting?

            http://www50.pair.com/alarew/ is the default name used by the isp. It is what i first used to log in and upload, install modx etc. Pair.com is the isp.
            www.crisisbalochistan.com is the name registered/assigned to this ip address. I assigned it a few months ago. It was working fine. Then it stopped. I dont think i changed anything relevant at the time. My wife was just updating a few pages for prelaunch.

              NM.
              I figured it out. I had accidently - a few days ago - made a page off of the home page. I deleted it immediately after realizing my mistake and then could not figure out why there was still a container notification off the home page. I ignored it, forgetting that the page becomes a container and the + sign signifies that. I just now noticed that only off the home page do you get the 404 errors. If you paste the crisisbalochistan.com/ prefix - replacing the 50.pair.com/alarew/, you can then click around normally. When you go back to home, errors start again. So i checked the home page, and remmebered that there was an empty page still hanging there so I unchecked container check box and it now works. I am still new to modx so still hunting and pecking but thanks so much for the quick response. It is great knowing that people are willing to take a stab at answering noob questions.
