I am trying to locate a sub page under a main page. When I edit the page, there is no 'parent' option in the 'Page Attributes' menu on the right, although it used to be there. I only see 'Template' and 'Order', but no 'Parent'. Does anyone know what went wrong?
The blog I need help with is marcoderks.wordpress.com.
Please go to the top right hand corner of your Admin page and click "screen options". It will drop down an area with a list of the different things you can show or hide. Select and inlcude these modules:
Page – Likes and Shares, Page Attributes, Featured Image, Discussion, Comments, Page Revisions, Slug, Author, Revisions, Writing Helper
If reselecting the modules does not work http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/page-attributes/ then I will flag this thread for Staff attention.
Thank you so kind for paying attention to my question. I followed your instructions. Although the 'Page Attributes' box was already ticked, the 'Parent' element suddenly returned. So the problem seems to be solved. Thanks again.
There's another thing: I have added a 'Home' page (marcoderks.wordpress.com/home) but there is already another 'Home' page (marcoderks.wordpress.com) mentioned in the menu. However, I can't find the latter so when I go to marcoderks.wordpress.com I see the text:
Not Found
Apologies, but no results were found for the requested archive. Perhaps searching will help find a related post.
But I can't figure out how to solve this. Do you know that?
The solution to this two home pages issue is to set up a custom menu and select only the Ho0me page you created to appear in it. For more information on setting up custom menus please see this support doc.
