Blog Problems

procreative · Sep 23rd 2019

So I have a site originally built in Perch 2 using the Blog App. I have reused the templates etc for a new site, generally everything works fine except the Blog. Loading the index page for it gets as far as the nav menu, basically I think as soon as it encounters the blog it quits. So previously I renamed Blog to News and maybe this is something to do with it?

1. Here is code within index page

PHP

<?php include('../admin/runtime.php');?>
<?php perch_layout('head.content'); ?>
<body class="l-body">
<div class="l-canvas type_wide col_contside headerpos_fixed headertype_extended">
<div class="l-canvas-h">
<div class="l-header">
<div class="l-header-h">
<?php perch_layout('main.header'); ?>
<div class="l-main">
<div class="l-main-h">
<div class="l-submain">
<div class="l-submain-h g-html i-cf">
<?php if (perch_get('cat')) {
perch_blog_custom(array(
'category' => perch_get('cat'),
'template' => 'post_in_list.html',
'paginate' => true,
'page-links' => true,
'count' => 4,
'sort' => 'postDateTime',
'sort-order' => 'DESC',
));
} else {
perch_blog_custom(array(
'template' => 'post_in_list.html',
'paginate' => true,
'page-links' => true,
'count' => 4,
'sort' => 'postDateTime',
'sort-order' => 'DESC',
));
}
?>
<div class="l-sidebar at_right">
<div class="l-sidebar-h">
<?php perch_blog_categories(array('template' => 'category_link.html','include-empty' => true )); ?>
<?php perch_blog_custom(array('count' => 8,'template' => 'recent_posts_link.html','sort' => 'postDateTime','sort-order' => 'DESC',)); ?>
<?php perch_blog_date_archive_months('months_year_link.html', 'months_month_link.html'); ?>
<?php perch_blog_tags(array('template' => 'tags_link.html')); ?>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<?php perch_content('Call To Action'); ?>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<?php perch_layout('main.footer'); ?>
<a class="w-toplink" href="#"><i class="fa fa-angle-up"></i></a>
</body>
</html>

2. Also here is htacess stuff:

RewriteEngine on

AddHandler php-script .xml

ErrorDocument 404 /

# you might not need this, i only have this rule to stop redirecting once it has been redirected, stops it from getting stuck in a loop

RewriteCond %{ENV:REDIRECT_STATUS} 200

RewriteRule ^news/([a-zA-Z0-9-/]+)/preview$ /news/post.php?s=$1&preview=all [L]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d

RewriteRule ^(.+)/$ /$1 [R=permanent,QSA]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.php -f

RewriteRule ^(.+)$ $1.php [L,QSA]

</IfModule>

Having installed new Perch and Blog App and created fresh DB (latest), is there anything else I need to do with the App itself to make it work or is this some other issue?
