I just made a WP theme, and I’m using a custom page template for the blog and for the home.
The problem is that all the URLs now have /blog/ appended to them (which, I believe is the name of the page that’s using the Blog Page Template).
Following an article in the Codex, I made the Blog page template empty, and instead added the blog content to home.php.
What am I doing wrong?
Pages don’t have a base in the URL unless you are associating the page with a parent in the “Page Attributes” section. Example:
Page 1 – “Contact Us” (no parent)
Page 2 – “Directions” (Contact Us as parent)
Page 1 URL – domain.com/contact-us
Page 2 URL – domain.com/contact-us/directions
Also, are you sure you’re dealing with actual pages and not posts in a category?
