Pages Not Showing on My Website

I was making some modifications to my website www.duckworthonline.com this morning and I did something wrong so now my pages don't show.

For example, under my Client and Misc galleries I have 4 folders and numerous pages. The folders show but the pages do not. On my "Portfolio" page none of the pages show. You can see the pages that should show when logged in and look at the organizer.

I caused the problem working on one of my folders and I deleted a box. I was adding a descriptive field and in doing so I wanted to tighten up the appearance at the top.

Thank you in advance for your support.

Jim

    When adding a content box to a folder page be careful what kind of box.

    Try adding a 'folder, galleries and page" content box so pages will also show.
    Or add all three kinds of boxes. Only those with contents will show to visitors.

    Al,

    Thank you for your reply but I'm afraid I'm not following you. I have a "folder, galleries and page" box. I think the problem may be I have added a "Galleries" box in front of it so my page doesn't show. I can see how to delete the "Galleries" box. There is no wrench on it. Maybe I'm not supposed to delete it. I tried to move the "folder, galleries and page" box up but it won't move.

    What type of page is this? A folder, gallery or page?
    In the flyout what is highlighted? Does "make this ? custom" show? What's the "?" say?

    My galleries don't show. On my Home page I have links to "Portfolio". When you click on that link none of the Galleries show. I don't have any folders on "Portfolio" page. When you click on the "Client Galleries" from my home page I have 4 folders that show but the Galleries that used to be there do not show. When you click on one of the folders that appear no Galleries appear.

    Bottom line, my Galleries do not show.

    Thank you for your patience and support.

    Make sure any box you add has "select from" set to "current location". Click wrench on box.
    The type of content box will only show that type in box.

    I've gone through every box I can find and they all are marked "Current Location". I know this is a simple problem. I can see all the galleries when I am logged in and hit the customize site button. Is it possible to show you a screen shot?

    I've spent almost two hours on this and I know the fix must be simple.

    Make sure they are not set to unlisted. Only you see them logged in.

    They are not unlisted. I have a few that are but most are not. My website was working very well for months. I made one simple change trying to text description to a folder.

    You say that they only appear while you're in the customiser? Maybe your published version of the page doesn't have the content block, but the version you're currently editing does. You'd need to hit the done/publish now button in the customiser to make your current edit visible.

    I just tried three times in customizer clicking on "Publish Now". Still no galleries.

    I logged out and viewed. No galleries.

    I logged back in and clicked on "Customize Site" and "Publish Now" again. No galleries.
