Currently I am getting 404 link errors

  • Currently I am getting 404 link errors when clicking on Old Entries, Archives, Categories links.

    When I click on the Valid XHTML there are 8 errors which are related to embedded flash videos which I resently addded.

    Is it possible the code from these added flash videos has corrupted the MYSQL database?

    I am able to link into Site Admin.

  • Wouldn’t have thought so, but never say never.

    Have you been playing around with your Permalinks lately? Or added/changed/updated any plugins? Or edited your .htaccess file?

    Go to:
    Admin > Settings > Permalinks
    Switch to the default structure, then save changes.
    Switch back to the previous structure. Save changes again.

    What happens?

    Please reset your .htaccess file using the above method by @alism , just SAVE the settings once again and WordPress should rewrite the .htaccess file automatically.

    Also check that if you are using Custom Structure the value mentioned is correct eg /%postname%/

    No.

    Go to:
    Admin > Settings > Permalinks
    Switch to the default structure, then save changes.
    Switch back to the previous structure. Save changes again.

    What happens?

    I had permalinks set to custom which had been working.

    As you suggested, I switched to the default and saved.

    Now the links work.
