I tried to find my .htaccess file, but I am not sure where it is or if it’s even there. Any help would be much appreciated. Again I know I am a newbie when it comes to this. So thank you.
The .htaccess file is in the kirby root folder (you may have to make dot files visible, before you can see it), could you post the contents of it? Is the rewrite base set?
Another possible reason can be your browser cache. Clearing it sometimes solves such issues.
Otherwise: Please try to reupload the Kirby starterkit to the server.
