When i click on the Portfolio link after setting up my About page, the Portfolio page shows this message : "Not Found"

Here's my code, i copied it straight from the index.html and followed along exactly so i'm not sure what i did wrong

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <title>Omolewa Akinyode | Designer</title>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/normalize.css">
    <link href='https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Changa+One|Open+Sans:400,400italic,700,700italic,800' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/main.css">
  </head>
  <body>
    <header>
      <a href="index.html" id="logo">
        <h1>Omolewa Akinyode</h1>
        <h2>Designer</h2>
      </a>
      <nav>
        <ul>
          <li><a href="index.html">Portfolio</a></li>
          <li><a href="about.html"class="selected">About</a></li>
          <li><a href="contact.html">Contact</a></li>
        </ul>
      </nav>

Everything looks to be correct. Have you tried closing the preview and reopening the preview to see if that works?

Only change I would make is add a space before class="selected" on your about nav link

Yes i tried closing and reopening but nothing changes. I can go from the about page to the contact page but the portfolio page still says "not found"

Hello, Omolewa Akinyode, I think if you write in this way, you can understand what should you have to code. like as: <!DOCTYPE html> <html lang="en"> <head> <meta charset="utf-8"> <title>Omolewa Akinyode | Designer</title> <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/style.css" media="screen"> <link href='https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Changa+One|Open+Sans:400,400italic,700,700italic,800' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'> </head> <body> <header>

                 <ul >                                       
                      <li class="active"><a href="index.html">Home</a> </li>  <!--Your main page-->
                      <li><a href="about.html">About</a></li>  <!--create about.html page with  DOCTYPE html to ul-->
                      <li><a href="contact.html">Contact</a></li>

                  </ul>

</header> </body> </html>

Omolewa Akinyode, <li><a href="index.html">Portfolio</a></li> Here your portfolio page is index.html page, its a main page. so how you can find the portfolio . I think you have to change it. 1st you create a home page, the code is: <li><a href="home.html">Home</a></li> <li><a href="portfolio.html">Portfolio</a></li> In this way u will get your solution. thanks
