Sorry but I am becoming stupider as time goes on....
This is my wordpress landing page, which should have my latest posts. To my knowledge I have checked all the "latest posts" buttons I know and not the "static page" ones.
http://www.wtgphotos.com/blog/
When I then click on the widget Recent Posts > welcome! I get this:
http://www.wtgphotos.com/2016/10/welcome/
And when I click on Visit Site in the WP Dashboard, it takes me to my Backlight homepage:
http://www.wtgphotos.com/
Did I just fall off the onion truck??
Thanks for the help and time,
terry

The only one should be in Settings > Reading. Make sure it's set to Latest Posts.
Do you happen to have some sort of redirect going on that sends requests to yoursite.com/blog/.... to yoursite.com/....?
Perhaps in the .htaccess file?

Yes, the settings in WP are Latest Posts.
Looking at the htaccess file, I see lots of rewrites but no redirects. I haven't customized the htaccess file.
Still get the "Unable to find page with name 2016/10/welcome." when trying to load the test blog post.
Stuck on this one. Thanks for the thoughts and help!

You have Wordpress installed at http://www.wtgphotos.com/blog/, so in your Wordpress admin settings, be sure that Wordpress is aware of the fact. In Wordpress' admin, Settings => General, that means setting the Wordpress Address as above, and possibly the Site Address as well.

Yes that is the correct address in Settings>General.
Sorry but I still get:
http://www.wtgphotos.com/blog/
And this when I try to access the welcome! post:
Unable to find page with name 2016/10/welcome.
Something went wrong
Unexpected error: Module 'ionCube Loader' already loaded in Unknown on line 0
Please report error at http://community.theturninggate.net
Thanks for your time and help!
I really think Backlight is a great step forward for TTG as it avoids the cumbersome and slow LR Web module functionality. Great work! Just trying to get it to work for me!

Something in your setup seems to be off.... When I click on the "pictographs" link, it goes to "http://www.wtgphotos.com/tag/pictographs/" instead of http://www.wtgphotos.com/blog/tag/pictographs/
Did WP work with the default theme? Is this a new WP installation? If yes, I would dump it and start from scratch. First get it up and working with the default theme, then add the Backlight theme.
But there is something else: the 'ionCube Loader' error shows up on your regular pages as well. Did you add ionCube to your installation?

If you'd like to send me a login, I'll have a look at your Wordpress admin. All indications that I can see are telling me that your Wordpress settings are wrong, not in Backlight but within Wordpress itself.

The story is that I had switched from my CE4-based site just before Backlight came out to a WP site based on (wrong) information from someone telling me I needed a more robust ecommerce piece. So I had switched to using a Divi framework from Elegant Themes and Woocommerce. Then talking to someone more knowledgeable, they said the ecommerce piece of CE4 was perfectly fine. I was sick of the complexity of the Divi/Woocommerce piece. So I chucked the Divi site and came back to Backlight. However all that stuff is still there.
I suspect both of you are correct that something from the older WP site is still gumming up the works. I will see if I can clean out the themes I don’t need and see if that helps. I’ll report back.
Matthew, how do I PM you if I need you to look under the hood some more?
Thanks to y’all for the help. It appears I naively thought I could just slap in a new WP theme and move on.

You can send Matt an email. There's a link beneath his name and picture to the left of every post of his.

I was unsuccessful trying to finesse Wordpress, so I did a re-install from scratch. Seems to be working now.
Thanks again for all the time to help me out!! I'll holler back if problems arise.
