thanks to each of you, really appreciate you taking the time to post with your suggestions
in terms of the code, apologies for my error in copy/paste. the '.' is there in the code and always has been, I just neglected it when posting about the issue
I solved the issue, I think. it's working now and have completed 3 new pages thus far without issue. honestly not sure what I did as I was fucking around trying different things on 2 browsers while half asleep at the end of a long day. I think what worked was installing a cache plugin, then clearing the cache and then deactivating the plugin. I don't use cache plugins so have no idea why that should work, but assuming that's what solved it, it did.
thanks again y'all, very much appreciate your time
