Internal server error with {state.router.link}

[kuniejm]

Hello, I can't get through Connect the component to the state step.
I've copied the code from your tutorial and got an error 500 connected with {state.router.link} and Cannot read property 'link' of undefined in the console. Should I install any package to make it work?

Hi @kuniejm, sorry you've experienced a problem with the tutorial. The best way to get help on this is to ask in the Frontity community forum.

Please provide as much information as possible there. Please post the complete content of the file that you're experiencing problems with so we can check it for accuracy.

You don't need to install any additional packages. Each step in the tutorial has all the information you need for the code to work at that stage.

Hi @kuniejm
I was able to complete that step in the tutorial correctly. Are you using frontity's url or your own WordPress blog URL? When I used my own WordPress URL, it initially gave me Internal Server Error 500 because REST API was disabled on my blog.
It worked fine after I enabled it on my blog. 😃

Another thing that can cause a problem with fetching data from the REST API is if you're using plain permalinks. Check in Settings->Permalinks that you're using one of the "pretty" permalink options if you're using your own WordPress installation.

For the tutorial we recommend using the example URL for the data, at least until you've worked through it and you have the knowledge to confidently change things.
