Store won't display after update (Error 404)

[Eric]

If your store won't display (or you get a 404) after you have clicked the [Update Products and Settings] button, here are some steps to help troubleshoot the problem. After you perform each step below, be sure to check to see if your store is displaying properly.

1. Turn OFF any caching plugins.

This is essential and will save you hours of wasted time in the debugging process. Trust me. I've been there...

2. Make sure there is only 1 WordPress Page for your store.



3. Make sure that your Store page slug matches the slug in your Advanced Store Settings.



4. Make sure your Store page is set to Public and is Published.



5. Make sure your Settings > Reading settings are configured correctly.

This section does not control whether your store appears on the front page of your site anymore. If you want your store to appear on the front page of your site, follow these directions.

If you have modified your Reading settings, you should reset those to these settings:

You would have installed them. Go to your Plugins page and look for any plugin with the word 'cache' or 'caching' in the name and deactivate them until you are finished debugging.

When I update my store products and settings and configure my widgets, I only see the widgets on my website. Also, a store link is not automatically created. Should I set up a store page or is the program supposed to do that automatically?

The Datafeedr plugin will create the necessary pages.

However, I went to your website and viewed your store successfully. It seems to me everything is set up properly.

I have had this store up for about 2 months and it was working fine. Today I got to check it and this is what is showing up on my home page:

<a href="/?q=store/product/buy/480000571016480/1-3-4-rhinestone-pasties" title="
Fatal error: Call to undefined function datafeedr_hh() in /home/content/02/6652102/html/sexyswimsuits/wp-content/plugins/datafeedr/datafeedr.php(1822) : eval()'d code on line 10

Inside of wp admin it states that my products are there but this is the code I am now getting. What happened?

So if i go to pages and have no store pages in my page list do i need to create a new one?

[Eric]

First, try to restore the "Store" page from your Trash. If the "Store" page is not in your Trash, then you will need to create a new one. But it's probably in your Trash.

I added some product to my store. after updating them my store was gone. There is only a 404 error:Not Found The requested URL /store/ was not found on this server.

i've checked all your tips in http://www.datafeedr.com/forums/show...1985#post21985 but thats all ok.

my Store iD is: 32205 my site is www.iappfel.de

[blnklaus]

this effect is only on the store front page. If i go direct in a category page (for example: http://www.iappfel.de/store/category/imacs/ ) all is fine. I try do reset the store front page view in the factory but it don't help. The url setting means that all settings are ok:

The reason you were getting a 404 is because you had a directory named "store" in your root folder. I've renamed this to "store-data" and that fixed the problem. You can't have a page on your site and a directory on your server with the same name.

I also update your Datafeedr Directories settings to match this change.

Thank you very much, Eric. You're very patiently with such a stupid users like me.

This totally helped. The plugin didn't create any pages, but as soon as I manually created "Store," it was up and running. Thanks!

Is this to do with it? How do I get it so that the images are not hosted locally? sorry for being completely stupid - im a little confused. many thanks
