Uploaded new site to Bluehost via Filezilla getting Error 404 to several pages when navigating from a "child page".

I am new to Muse and just published my first site. Some of the fonts are rendering differently than in the working version, but that might be an easy fix. My main problem is that when I navigate to a child page and attempt to use the menu to get back "home", I get the error 404 message. Any suggestions/help appreciated.

Thank you

I figured out what the problem was. The child page that I created had a "html" extension. When I exported the html to my desktop to do the ftp upload, I didn't rename the file "htm". Once I changed that and uploaded the changes, the website now performs correctly.

Without knowing anything about teh actual site structure and how everything is linked nobody can tell you much. Sounds like you use some absolute references that would need to be adapted for every page's menu. Provide screenshots and additional info how it's set up in Muse.

Ok, I'll add screenshots later today. But briefly, I used a Muse template to build the site; the site has one main page with no master. I added a "child page" to the main page. On the live page, I can navigate to the added page but not back to the main page from the child page. Hopefully this helps, if not, I'll add screen shots after work.
