Page/Post Not Found

  • I’m having a terrible time figuring this out. I know there are threads talking about this already, and I swear I’ve exhausted myself trying to figure it out.

    I need some sort of step by step that will help me with the Pretty Permalinks. Everything works fine when the permalinks is set to default.

    When I switch it to Post name, it can no longer find my post or my about me page through their urls.

    I’ve tried using the plugin WP htaccess control, but I am not sure I used it right and didn’t find clear instructions for using it to edit the .htaccesss. I’ve downloaded Filezilla. but I get a notification that I’m running it behind a NAT router, and the options available to me don’t match the tutorials I’ve seen. I’ve watched several tutorials on how to create a .htaccess file, and I’ve had no luck getting any of this to work for me.

    Can anyone dumb this down for me? I’m at my wits end. Thanks in advance!

    What is the contents of your .htaccess file?

    To find out, access your server via SFTP or FTP and edit the file with a plain text editor.

    You may need to configure your SFTP or FTP client to display invisible/hidden files.

    This is what my htaccess file reads:

    # BEGIN W3TC Browser Cache
    <IfModule mod_deflate.c>
    <IfModule mod_headers.c>
    Header append Vary User-Agent env=!dont-vary
    </IfModule>
    AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/css text/x-component application/x-javascript application/javascript text/javascript text/x-js text/html text/richtext image/svg+xml text/plain text/xsd text/xsl text/xml image/x-icon application/json
    <IfModule mod_mime.c>
    # DEFLATE by extension
    AddOutputFilter DEFLATE js css htm html xml
    </IfModule>
    </IfModule>
    # END W3TC Browser Cache
    # BEGIN WordPress
    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /
    RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
    </IfModule>

    # END WordPress

    Odd, that should be just fine.

    There was a possibly related issue fixed in WordPress 4.4.1. Try this:

    1. Upgrade to WordPress 4.4.1.

    2. Try re-saving your permalink structure at Settings/Permalinks in your admin panel. If WordPress cannot automatically edit the .htaccess file, it will provide manual instructions after saving.

    3. Clear W3TC’s cache.
