Navigation Issues
Have been working on a new Backlight site to replace my CE4 site and I have to say a huge Thanks for making things so much easier for the users who have some coding knowledge, but not enough to get all of the cool things added on. Backlight easily allows the user to add the customization at relatively little pain as compared to the LR web module. So major Kudos to TTG.
That being said, I built out a site on the testing site on my PC, and have everything looking good. I migrated things over to my actual website in what I thought was the right method, but am getting some unusual behavioural issue from my navigation menu. When I navigate away from the home page, none of the paths are found because its adding the domain name to the path for a second instance. Probably has to do with the way I replaced the domain name for the /localhost/ setup, but can't figure it out. Probably been staring at it to long.
I'm sure it's user error on my end, but not sure what setting inside of Backlight I jacked up at this point.
The pages should be:
Home = www.mikebalbierer.com
Galleries = www.mikebalbierer.com/galleries
About = www.mikebalbierer.com/about
Contact = www.mikebalbierer.com/contact
Search = www.mikebalbierer.com/backlight/search

Re: Navigation Issues
You have set the wrong path in Backlight Designer > Menu Sets.

Re: Navigation Issues
In Settings, also check what you've entered in the Site URL field. It should just be http://www.mikebalbierer.com

Re: Navigation Issues
Thanks for the quick responses and the help.
I had the site setting to just www.mikebalbierer.com which I guess mattered and once I changed it to what you suggested it works smoothly now.
Thanks,
Mike
