Why Don’t Any of the Pages I created work?

    I’ve been working on this website for a week and trying to master WordPress. It was all working great. It said that I needed to reset to defaults because I had changed the font size on a page and that was a Style that needed a paid subscription. But, now nothing is showing. I don’t understand. Isn’t everything I chose part of the Free Plan??? I don’t have any money until the beginning of July. I have to make due.

    WP.com: Yes
    Jetpack: No
    Correct account: Yes

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    Hello,

    I’m sorry to hear about the troubles you’re having with your WordPress site.

    WordPress.com’s Free Plan has some limitations, including the inability to add custom CSS or specific style changes to your site. Typically, if you attempt to add custom styling, WordPress.com will prompt you to upgrade to a premium plan.

    I see that the link to the blog (http://wordpress%20blog/) is in error.
    The format must be different, for example: example.wordpress.com; example.wordpress.com/blog.

    Some pages are showing the 404 error.

    You may see these errors for a few reasons, including changing permalinks or misspelled URLs. Please check that the pages are published and that the links are correct.

    However, resetting to defaults shouldn’t make your content disappear. Here are some steps you can take to troubleshoot the issue:

    • Clear Browser Cache: Sometimes, outdated data in your browser cache can cause issues with displaying content. Try clearing your browser cache to see if that helps: Follow this guide: https://wordpress.com/support/clear-your-sites-cache/
    • Try a Different Browser: There might be a compatibility issue with your current browser. Try accessing your site from a different browser to see if the content displays correctly.
    • Inspect Individual Pages/Posts: Go into your WordPress.com dashboard and open each post or page to see if the content is still there.
    • Revert to a Previous Version: WordPress.com saves previous versions of your posts and pages. You can revert to an earlier version if you believe changes you’ve made may have caused the issue.

    Hope this helps!

    I can access the pages in Edit mode, but now that I published it… none of the links are working? Did I use something that was premium?? Thank goodness I didn’t purchase the domain name on WordPress. This is a total rip-off. Hours and hours of work for nothing. I don’t know html coding and I’m not a programmer. I’m going back to WIX.

    Sorry to hear about your frustrating experience with WordPress.com. Before deciding to move, I propose that we wait for the help of a happiness engineer. I’m just a volunteer and don’t have access to their website, but they can provide a more effective solution.

    I’m sorry if I couldn’t be of assistance in this case; please wait for the team.
    I’ve already tagged the team and they should respond soon.
