 * I did a search here and found the adding Webfinger manually post and did that.
   When I check my URL:
   [https://www.theexplorographer.com/.well-known/webfinger?resource=acct:TheExplorographer@www.theexplorographer.com](https://www.theexplorographer.com/.well-known/webfinger?resource=acct:TheExplorographer@www.theexplorographer.com)
   I am getting missing “resource” parameter as a result. I have the ability to 
   access and alter my .htaccess files is there anything I can look for?
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fmissing-resource-parameter%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * You seem to have generated a static version now, because the URL returns a valid
   JSON file. Does that work for you?

 * [@pfefferle](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pfefferle/) Got it thanks! Was
   able to figure out the issue which was my .Htaccess file and an inappropriate
   redirect. Thank you!
