hmm that htaccess didnt copy and paste correctly. Here it is below:
# Standard .htaccess file
# Secure .htaccess file
<Files .htaccess>
order allow,deny
deny from all
</Files>
# Don’t show any directory without an index file
Options -Indexes
# Dont list files in index pages
IndexIgnore *
# EE 404 page for missing pages
# May differ depending on where your template is located.
ErrorDocument 404 /index.php?/site/404
# Enable Rewrite Engine
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
# Remove the www from the URL
# You may be able to do this through your web host or you may not need it at all.

I might just start again with this installation, I’ve just noticed the styling isnt being applied to the product images and the nav still doesnt work on the homepage. Thanks for the help so far Mike, appreciated
