Ok changed my blog page to the home page for. my website glennthomas.us
RWC is showing some warnings

:bangbang: Pretty URLs require modifying your site’s .htaccess file in your Publishing Settings.
Copy & paste this code into your .htaccess file in Publishing Settings using Edit .htacces file button.
the above are completed

this message I am not figuring out?

You will need to replace the blog/ path with a realtive path to your blog page.

ok what does this mean? the blog files are in the root of my website? what should the path be? glennthomas/us/path?? or path? so many questions so little time

If your blog is the top page of your site then the path would simply be / instead of blog/

awesome so that needs to change in the hta access file as well

I thought that is what you were asking already. Yes, you need to change that in the .htaccess file.

RewriteRule blog/(.) /?id=$1 [L,NC,QSA] is this what is needed in the htaccess or is this RewriteRule /(.) /?id=$1 [L,NC,QSA]
??

Thank you Adam

This topic is covered on the Alloy documentation site in the Troubleshooting section.

RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule (.*) ?id=$1 [L,NC,QSA]
