All but index showing 404

  • I recently had to restore this site due to a total server crash, so it was restored from a backup.
    All went well but something is set wrong someplace. The menu items all give a 404 page not found.
    Can anyone make a suggestion for the fix?

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    In your apache config file for this virtual host, add these three lines then restart apache:

    <Directory /path/to/wordpress>
   AllowOverride All
</Directory>

    It looks like you have already sorted it out, right? I’ve just tested here and all links are good. Did you do something? If so, please share it here and mark you topic as resolved, that way you help other users with similar problems ??

    Thank you for the quick response. I googled it and found the following and it worked. So sometimes it’s as easy as…

    “Go to Settings ? Permalinks, and simply click on Save Changes button. This will update your permalinks settings and flush rewrite rules. In most cases this solution fixes the WordPress posts 404 error. However, if it does not work for you, then you probably need to update your .htaccess file manually.”

    Aha, then your .htaccess file was restored. Visiting permalinks re-created it.

    Thank you for letting me know what that does. Now I understand what I actually did.

    Cheers.
