Backlight 111_broke my page appearance and behavior

http://www.graphicresolutions.com/GaryB … galleries/


I downloaded a fresh install of Backlight 1.1.1  and my pages and my Backlight login and pages work fine, but
they have lost their look, lost my top Navigation and moved it to the footer, black background and dynamic fluid behaviors are gone.

I updated Backlight+Pages the standard way as described in the documentation below and Cleared Template Cache.
But My .css does not change any when I go to my Design Template -> Advanced Customization and turn Custom Stylesheet on or off, ..or if I choose the custom-sample.css (nothing makes it work like it should, I just get a white background, thumbnails don't move when I change window size)

It may be some sort of .htaccess error somewhere, because if I look at the Apple Web Inspector, I'm getting lots of 404 errors for things like:  font-awesome, my css that is GBPV_pages_custom.css, the logo I use in my header,
/backlight/publisher/resource.php?template=9&extenstion=js&name=scaffolding


If it makes it any easier- I can give you access to my FTP, if tell me how.
-Thanks

I unpacked a fresh install and followed these instructions and normally works fine, but one of my  .htaccess files may be the issue.
_____________
=== To update to Backlight+Pages 1.1.1: ====

    IMPORTANT: Do NOT replace the entire backlight directory!  Doing so will remove ALL data and settings!

1. **Remove and re-upload the following files and directories:**

  * backlight/admin/
  * backlight/designer/
  * backlight/framework/
  * backlight/publisher/

  * backlight/modules/module-pages/
  * backlight/modules/okapi-core/
  * backlight/modules/standard-album/
  * backlight/modules/standard-album-set/
  * backlight/modules/standard-page/

Re: Backlight 111_broke my page appearance and behavior

Fresh install? Did you visit settings and enter the correct site URL?

It looks like it should be:

http://www.graphicresolutions.com/GaryBrackin_Photography_and_Video

but the page source code is looking here for your css:

http://www.graphicresolutions.com/backlight/designer/?c=page&a=image&p1=8&162

Is this an update? Did you remember to visit Designer, Publisher, etc. to update the databases?

Re: Backlight 111_broke my page appearance and behavior

This is an update to my main folder /GaryBrackin_Photography_and_Video
I updated the Backlight + Pages 1.1.1 and the specific directories described by the instructions when updating Backlight.
I did visit Designer, Publisher and it did not show that it was being updated like it usually does.
I did refresh templates. Should I back up and redo something? -Since my source code is looking in the wrong place for my css, as you mentioned in your response post.

Re: Backlight 111_broke my page appearance and behavior

What do you have set for site URL in Backlight Settings?

From your link above, it looks like it should be

http://www.graphicresolutions.com/GaryBrackin_Photography_and_Video/

and your Backlight installation is there as well (/GaryBrackin_Photography_and_Video/backlight/)

Re: Backlight 111_broke my page appearance and behavior

Thank you, Rod!

-Incredible, I had looked over that so many times but I was pointing to my main website and not the top level of my Backlight. Quick and easy. I couldn't see it, ..but you did. Thank you again, so much!
