Hi,
I have bought this theme few days ago
and after I upload the theme, I also change my homepage path from http://www.guidepals.com/blog to http://www.guidepals.com. ,
Then I follow the official methods, copy index.php and .htaccess to my root file
(“blog” is my wordpress folder)
And change he code of newsmag from ” require( dirname( __FILE__ ) . ‘/wp-blog-header.php’ ); ” To “require( dirname( __FILE__ ) . ‘/blog/wp-blog-header.php’ );”

however, when I open http://www.guidepals.com , i can’t see anything even 404
and when I open http://www.guidepals.com/blog I can see 404 page with Newsmag theme..
but when I click any button of articles, i can’t see anything even 404 page again….
I don’t know if there’s anything I need to change for Newsmag’s path or any files?

Please help
Thanks

Thanks

You should get your site working with proper paths using the default WordPress theme first and follow the directions on the WordPress Codex.

Once your paths all work, THEN switch to the new theme.

The theme has nothing to do with WP setup or server paths.
