Link <https://our-domain-name/about> not working
-
Hello!
I was able to install WordPress on my server without any problems. I installed one additional plugin (<https://www.ads-software.com/extend/plugins/simple-captcha/>), and one additional theme (<https://wordpress.pro/wordpress-themes/wedding-10/>).
After the installation, I read the article
<https://www.techairlines.com/wordpress-security-tips-and-guidelines/>, following most of the tips. But now, I have a problem I cannot understand.Links such as
<https://our-domain-name/about> and <https://our-domain-name/links> do not work. However, links such as
<https://our-domain-name/?page_id=2> (pointing to the About page) do work. I modified the `header.php’ in the proper theme directory, and that solved the problem. But I still don’t understand what’s causing this behavior. Why does the link <<https://our-domain-name/about> take me to the front page?(By the way, we are using the latest version of WordPress; i.e. 2.8.5.)
This is what the `.htaccess’ file contains.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ index.php/$1# Protect wp-config.php
<Files wp-config.php>
order allow,deny
deny from all
</Files># BEGIN WordPress
# END WordPress
