I’m trying to create a blog via the cms feature. I got some help from AI bot Claude but it ended with a page with lots of text. Looks like this: “$p !== ‘’)); foreach (explode(‘/’, $relativePath) as $segment) { if ($segment === ‘..’) { array\_pop($base); } elseif ($segment !== ‘.’ && $segment !== ‘’) { $base[] = $segment; } } $result = ‘/’ . implode(‘/’, $base); return rtrim($result, ‘/’); }; $apiPath = ‘../rw/elements/com.elementsplatform.cms/api’; $wantsRSS = ‘false’ === ‘true’; $wantsSitemap = ‘false’ === ‘true’; // Use pre-parsed WAF-safe paths from hooks.js $collectionPathClean = ‘domains/proversie.nl/public\_html/blogteksten’ !== ‘’ ? ‘domains/proversie.nl/public\_html/blogteksten’ : ‘examples/content/blog’; $collectionPat…” etc. Claude doesn’t know what the problem is. PHP is set on 8.4. There is a .htaccess file on my server. Anyone in this community knows what the solution is? ---

First thing to check, have you set the page extension to php? ---

Don’t know. Where do I do that? I set my server on PHP 8.4 but that’s not what you mean I guess. ---

Aha. I’m totally wrong in my setup. I did not use the microblog but the CMS. Is there a video or manual where I can get help from scratch? ---

I’m diving into it and step by step it’s getting clear. Are there any CMS templates available yet. I noticed some talk about it last year but in Elements I can’t find it. Am I missing something? ---

You can’t really “merge” the project files no, but you can copy the layout into your existing project. ---

@Marcoen Check your private mail (upper right corner). I sent you a book that should help.
