    Hi,
    I have a problem with the navigation. I have got a successful installation of
    amember and a protected folder with wordpress in it. I have now tried several different themes with the same results.
    The following is happening:
    When I create new post and pages I can't navigate to them. When I click on the menu to go to a page (on the frontpage of wordpress) ...I get a 404 error
    and a page from the root of the domain shows up with 404 error on it.

    I have tried everything so probably the error is in amember?

    Anybody have any tips or suggestion for me in how to solve this?

    Thank you

    Anka,

    WordPress should not be placed in an aMember protected folder. WordPress and aMember should be installed in their own sub-directory (you could also place WordPress in the root).

    You need to use a plug-in to allow aMember to control access (such as: page, post, category) to the WordPress installation. A plug-in is offered by aMember; however, I prefer the amProtect plugi-n.

    Good Luck

    Second on the amprotect plugin!

    I usually put wordpress in the root
    yoursite.com
    or in a subdirectory
    yoursite.com/content
    and amember in another
    yoursite.com/member

    This keeps things simple.
