My host is saying the index.htm file is not there, is this file created by wordpress only when someone asks for it or is it a “static” page and is always present on the server?
I looked at my index.htm file online using the wordpress administration pages and the file is there, has a permalink of index.htm and has no redirects of any kind in the file
I need to solve this issue as my home page is showing an err+r, please let me know if you’ve ever experienced this or if you have any suggestions that I can try
Thank you,
Mark

Hi
Maybe I received the error about 2 weeks ago and not sure if it was a theme update or a plugin update
I’ve just restored my site back to December 18th‎ when I know things were working and the redirect loop on the home page only is still there
I’ve contacted my host and there are no redirects
Could it be because my theme is in a folder /news/ and my wordpress files are in the root folder?
If I disable all my plugins do I lose the settings for the plugins when I reactivate later?
Should I resinstall wordpress again?
Any other ideas?
Thank you, 
Mark Argentino

I likely added the code above quite a while ago to get around the canconical issues with google, that’s my guess, or for one of my plugins….. just guessing here
thanks again for trying to solve this problem as it only arose in the last few weeks and quite honestly I forgot about the home page error and never went back to my home page until today!
Thanks
Mark

I noticed in the .htaccess file there is some code as follows:

# BEGIN WordPress – removed the following 7 lines jan 11 2016
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>

# END WordPress

could this be what is causing the redirect loop? Was this code added by me or by catchbox recently in an update?

If I comment out the code then my home page gives an error.

If I change the code above to .htm rather than .php and index.htm rather and .php it gives an error too.

Please help if you can.

Thanks
Mark

Hi Sakin,

This code works Excellent! Thanks for the help.

How do I purchase the Pro Version?

Thanks again,
Mark

Yes, I understand, but up until about a week or so ago, when I was in the mobile device showing the mobile menu the small graphic and the word menu was on the left, now it’s in the centre. The header and footer information is suddenly centre justified too, prior to this it was left justified. It seems like a justification issue that I can’t figure out what changed to make these 3 items (the header information, menu and footer information) center justified rather than left justified.

Can you see what may have changed recently?

Thanks
Mark

Hi Saki,

I appreciate your answer but I think I didn’t phrase my question properly.

I have a search function for my site and nowhere is the folder with the file:

category/rental-properties/listings/Rental-Properties/4080-Living-Arts-2101-Mississauga-City-Centre/ss/vt.htm

found yet Google is picking up this link and others like it somewhere on my site – it must be generated automatically internally from the catch box theme in the categories somewhere and not from a manually typed link.

Where could it be generated from? Am I the only person who is experiencing this in their webmaster tools crawl errors pages not found?

Thanks
Mark

Hello sticksoutfitter

The logo is there, but no word search in the search area on the right

Good luck with this,
Mark

Hello sticksoultitter,

What version of IE are you using?

Thanks

Hi Sakin,

You were correct, I updated the catchbox theme and everything stayed the same, what a great program!

I think it’s time to upgrade to catchboxpro as I’m very compfortable with this theme and the response time and accuracy of your assistance in these forms is excellent!

Thanks again,
Mark

[Mark Argentino]

Hi Sakin,

This worked perfectly! Thanks for the help.

I see there is an update to the catchbox theme. Now I have to re-read the areas of this help section where I have modified my theme so when I update I don’t lose all my customizations. I’ve created the child theme, but I also think I modified the functions file at some point too.

Also, won’t I lose my custom css, like the coding above, if I update the theme?

Thanks again,
Mark

[Mark Argentino]

Hello Sakin,

Could you please email me the custom css to make the icons coloured as well?

Hello Sakin,

I can’t figure out how to create a new post in this forum, so I’ll ask my question here as it’s a footer question.

The social icons are grey when viewed, but when you mouseover they turn the correct colour, is there a way to make the social icons at the bottom footer show as their ‘normal’ colour when viewing before mouseover, this way they show up better.

See my footer at

Thank you,

Hi Sakin,

It worked like a charm, thanks a million.

If you could take a quick look at my site and let me know if you see any advantages for me buying the pro version, I would appreciate it. I don’t mind spending the money if you think I can improve things by purchasing the pro version.

Hello Sakin,
Thanks for the quick response, your help and coding.

It does show fine on an iPhone, but on a Blackberry Q10 it does not render properly.

I’ll try and play with the colours above and see if I can get it to render properly on my Blackberry.

Thank you,
Mark

Update: I was able to reduce the huge space between the header text and the menu by adding:

#header-content { padding: 0.25em 0; }

I still can’t figure ou thow to change the text colour in the mobile menu so it shows while viewing in mobile mode.

Thanks
Mark

Hello!

Catch Box is a great theme, thanks for providing it to us!

My menu looks fine on desktop, but on mobile, the menu text is white on grey background and doesn’t show, can you help me change this colour to black so it will show up?

Also, trying to reduce the huge space between the header text and the menu in mobile only.

Thank you,
