Hi, I'm going according to the tutorial - trying to create a new "page type":

http://doc.silverstripe.org/tutorial:1-building-a-basic-site#using_a_different_template_for_the_home_page

The link "http://localhost/dev/build?flush=1" for rebuilding the database does not work for me and I can't figure out what it'd look like in the case of my website.

Any ideas on how to find the correct URL to enter into my browser? Thank you!

- Patrick

Hi Patrick

Have you installed silverstripe in a sub directory for example if you have to access the site from

http://localhost/the-site

then you would need to call

http://localhost/the-site/dev/build?flush=1

Thank you, Phill - does "localhost" function as a substitute for my actual domain within "http://localhost/the-site/dev/build?flush=1"? And yes, it's a sub-directory where the installation is located. Regards, Patrick

Use the url of your homepage, and put /dev/build?flush=1 after it. Then you should get an overview of de tables and fields of your database, and if any new ones are added. If that's not your problem, then please give some more details...
