Category Menu - posts don't display
 

I have a live site and a test site. Both are running Atahualpa 3.5.1 and Buddypress on the latest build of WP 3.0-RC3 on a webhost running Linux.

The category menu on the test site http://waterwaywatch.org/wordpress/ displays the appropriate posts.

The same menu on the live site http://waterwaywatch.org invokes a 404.

On both sites the POSTS option on the page menu produces the correct result.

The wp-config.php, htaccess and permalinks on both sites are essentially the same. Can anyone give me some ideas as to what is preventing the live category menu from working?

Thanks in advance

it's your permalinks. if you look at the link for 'Waterway news'
on 'http://waterways.org/wordpress' the link is 'http://waterways.org/wordpress/category/waterway-news'
but on 'http://waterwaywatch.org' it shows as 'http://waterwaywatch.org/%20/watch-news'

I'd wondered about that - I mean what is a space doing in there?

But I just double-checked and both sites are showing the same permalink settings, i.e. Day and Name.

As a test I changed both to Month and Name and added new posts - selecting options from the category menu on the test site http://waterways.org/wordpress shows all posts, but http://waterways.org invokes a 404.

Any other ideas?

Thanks for your input.

I assume that you meant http://waterwaywatch.org instead of http://waterways.org right?
http://waterwaywatch.org now returns a blank page

Whoops! Sorry about that. The two sites are http://waterwaywatch.org/wordpress/ (the 'test site') and http://waterwaywatch.org ('live site').

The blank page was temporary whilst I did some tweaking. Should be live now.

What htaccess files exist in the site in each folder up to the root?

In the roots we have:


Others deeper into the directory structure are related to backups, etc.
