[support] Path does not work

[Gina Rydland]

Hi

You should only use the part after the ?q= when ever referencing a path. i.e.: 
if the path is:
http://www.domain.com/?q=admin/settings
use
admin/settings

Answer: The problem is that there is nothing after ?q=
on my front page, it is just the URL followed by /?q=
