htaccess wordpress

  • Hello every one. I did follow the advice for Chris when staring a new wordpress install, and a perma-link format /%postname%/ But it did give me an error on the pages till I placed an htaccess on the main directory. But I have a suspicion that this is giving me a problem on fixing the template, and adding new add ons, etc.. they do not show up at all on the contral pannel, even though I know I did place the file on the right folder. Any help? My htacess is written like this:


    # BEGIN WordPress
    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
    </IfModule>
    # END WordPress


    I am working on the blind, any help? I did change the permissions on the files that I want to re-write but nothing!

    wp-content is on 777
    wp themes is on 777
    wp plugins 777

    Please help.
  • I have also had the same issues with trying to change it all... I have done some digging and although I have not managed to grab the time to actual do anything with it yet, I have found that the problem could go deeper. Sometimes options within which ever server you are running (Apache or IIS) anyway this might help...
