• Hello,
    I have been trying to change my permalinks into something nicer for SEO purposes. The only one I can use is default, otherwise I get a error 404 in my portfolio. The custom permalink I want is /%category%/%postname%/ . I have looked online, and added:

    # BEGIN WordPress

    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    ErrorDocument 404 /index.php?error=404
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
    </IfModule>

    # END WordPress
    to my .htaccess file. It did not allow me to use my custom permalink.

    My site is nikkicatart.com

    Thanks.

    My site is live now with hostgator.

    When clicking on portfolio and then the categories or subs like the url shown in the browser never changes but the page does. Also the 1-7 choices stay the same.

    Try adding this to your theme’s functions.php

    # Remove WordPress' canonical links
     remove_action('wp_head', 'rel_canonical');

    Make a backup copy of that file first.

    Also when drilling down thru portfolio/murals, etc. to the actual picture of the product, clicking on the image results in a 404 as the link is incomplete, i.e. https://nikkicatart.com/portfolio/baby-flower-set/ should be https://nikkicatart.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/babyflowergirlset1-215×140.jpg

    Nevermind, the page numbers work but when you click on the art you can’t see it, which is useless. -_- Error 404 again, I’m going to play around with it again.

    I added the code to the theme, and it helped the images with the 404 error and the custom permalink /%postname%/%post_id%/, but the pages 1-7 404 error. Also when you click on a category you get an error 404 as well (example…click on image, click product design)
    It seems like this is a theme issue. I contacted the creator of the theme, hopefully he gets back to me.

    Forgot to mention, sorry that I deactivated my plugins, they are not causing the problem.

    The creator of the theme fixed the portfolio spacing issue, but hasn’t responded about the permalink issue.

    The creator isn’t responding, I am on my own.
