I have created My first blog page and can edit the design however When i try to view the blog I get the error The requested URl was not found on the server. I created a second blog. Although it also appears in the Publisher Blog menu it also gives the same error there is also not folder in my web site of the blogs name as with Gallery and Pages
Matt or Ben may need a link to your site
A folder named “blog” won’t be created on the server.
Sorry mistake I made it was an old folder. I have created a couple of pages and blogs and all give the same URL error. I have used Backlight for some years but just to provide the Galleries and Albums on my website. I am now starting to look at replacing all of my site with backlight, pages, galleries and blogs. Especially with the new video option. So this was my attempt to start the procces and create a blog and home page. I have added the Blog and Home page to my menu but the links only give the URL error when clicked.
Access to my site will not be possible as I always work locally initially, especially when there is a big change, or big update. My local site runs under a Brew HTTP server and I can also run HTTPS links.
maybe your local server is missing a necessary module?
Do you know what server modules I may be missing for Blog and Pages as I have no problem creating new top levels and new albums

Updated my live site and created a test blog and page by clicking on show in browser i did not get the server message just a blank page
I have been experimenting and this is where I am up to. Galleries, album sets and albums work fine. updates are ok from Lightroom and manually.
So I created a simple blog Blog 1 and clicked on view in browser which tried to go to a page https://sp-photo.site/blog-1/. This folder does not exist, just in case it was permissions I manually created the folder and added a simple index.php which the link https://sp-photo.site/blog-1/ opened. I then made sure that the folder had the same permissions as the rest of my local site. I deleted the index.php, deleted the Blog 1 in Backlight, Recreated the Blog 1 and tried to browse again to https://sp-photo.site/blog-1/. Still no luck and no files in Blog-1 folder. The screenshot shows Blog 1 as it appears in Backlight.
