Hi,

I've implemented the Couch blog on one of my websites by following the documentation.

I've got it all up and running properly, with a blog list of all the posts and a 'read more' button to take users to the full posts.

It's working absolutely fine on my laptop and I can view the full post pages. However when I checked it on my mobile phone, the list of posts appears ok, but when I click on 'read more' the page comes up as 'Page not found'. The URL appears correctly in the address bar, but for some reason it doesn't display the content.

Thanks in advance for any help.
Hi,

Couch has no in-built checks for which device the request is coming from (i.e. it doesn't know/care whether the request is from a desktop or a mobile). So the reason for the 'page not found' cannot be the difference in device.

A possible reason could be that you are logged-in as admin while testing the blog from your laptop but not when doing so through the mobile.

Can you please try accessing the pages from the laptop while you are *not* logged in as an admin and see if you can access the pages?

Please let us know.
Hi, Thanks for getting back to me so quickly.

I've just checked, and you're right, I can't view the blog posts on my laptop when I'm not logged in to the admin section.

Is it possible I've implemented the blog incorrectly? Do you have any suggestions on how I can go about fixing it?

Thanks
Perhaps the blog posts are still in 'Unpublished' state - please check this from the edit screen => Advanced settings drop down menu.

Another probable reason could be that you have declared the blog template as non-executable e.g. as follows -
<cms:template executable='0' >

Please check and let me know.
I've just checked and the posts were published, but I had set the template to non-excutable so have changed that and it's now working.

Thanks you very much for your help - it's really appreciated.
You are welcome :)
