Can't locate .htaccess files

Hi,
Here are two situations.

1.
If you are able to access the homepage and the inner page with your permalinks settings (post name), it means that your .htaccess file is in place.

2.
In case you only see the homepage and get 404 or page not found on inner pages, try to change the permalinks to default using dashboard, save it and again revert back to the old permalinks setting. It would update your htaccess file and the inner pages would start to work. Only applicable if you get homepage okay but 404 error on inner pages which is a common error we see upon moving sites.

That was about getting things to work and if you really want to get a view of .htaccess file, use your file manager of FTP (I prefer filezilla) to get a view of hidden files).

Filezilla shows hidden by files using the following settings
Version 2.x – View > Show hidden files
Version 3.x – Server > Force showing hidden

Hope this works,
Marshall

Marshall, your first situation is what applies in this case. I can see the home page along with the inner pages. I have the latest version of Filezilla and have “Force Showing Hidden Files” enabled with a checkmark next to it. In my view I have the following in my root folder with no viewable .htaccess file.

wp-admin (folder)
wp-content (folder)
wp-includes (folder)
homepage-index.php
index.php
license.txt
readme.html
wp-activate.php
wp-blog-header.php
wp-comments-post.php
wp-config-sample.php
wp-config.php
wp-cron.php
wp-links-opml.php
wp-load.php
