404s on all pages after creating child theme

My home page looks ok ( http://soldering.curiousinventor.com/ ), but clicking ‘Ask’ in the menu takes me to /ask and a 404, and clicking on a question or category also 404s.

Under Pages I have one page, ‘Questions’, with [anspress] as the only content.

Under AnsPress options, the only page I can select is ANSPRESS_TITLE.

Also can I have my Questions page be at /questions instead of /base?

I mucked with the menus, so that may have broke it in combination with creating a new child theme. I’m very new to wordpress so I may have skipped some basic things!

thanks!

Its because you set AnsPress base page as home page. read FAQ http://anspress.io/documents/?doc_page=faq. This page will describe how to set AnsPress to home page.

there is no real use of /base, it will be removed in upcoming version.

Where do I set the home page and what do I set it to? I do want to list questions on the home page of my site. What is the ‘base page’? I only have one page, and have that selected as the ‘base page’ in AnsPress Options. I’m not sure where all I need to configure menus and pages. thanks!

I have fixed all issue in your site. 1. Set permalink as postname 2. do not add menu link manually, instead use anspress link radio buttons. let me know.

thanks for the incredibly fast help! I didn’t understand that setting the home page meant going to Appearance->Customize->Front Page. I thought I added the menu links correctly, but apparently not. I’m not sure how the permalink setting got changed. thanks again!
