Permalinks in 2.6.1 still not working

  • Greetings all,

    Im a relatively new WordPress user, started using it when it was in stage 2.4 or 2.5. I managed to have no problems what so ever with anything except now ever since I’ve upgraded to 2.6 the permalinks problems started happening. As a good techy, I read all the documentation and tried the various fixes (of which none of them worked for me) So I decided to wait till 2.6.1 which was supposed to address the permalinks issues associted with people using IIS.

    I upgraded to 2.6.1 this morning and Im sorry to say that the permalinks are still not working.

    Ive tried adding Category and Tag, Ive tried not using “index.php” in the link structure, Ive tried every possible combination of link structure and “hacks” but absolutely none of them work except for the default or numeric link structure. This is the reason why I’ve kept my other blog at 2.5 which works perfectly.

    Please someone give me a recommendation, as i’ve run out of ideas and probably read every post on permalinks on this website.

    Again I am a IIS user

    Thank you for your time!

  • permalinks not working correctly here either with 2.6.1 on apache. the only one that works is the /index.php/%postname%/ of gillesenvrac, which produces the annoying index.php as a side-effect. i have been using wordpress on some 10 sites for ages, so i’m quite sure i know what i’m doing.

    i have the same .htaccess as miloandrew above, but his permalink structure doesn’t work for me (nor does any other like the simple /%postname%/).

    Hi, I followed Jawntech’ advice:

    Ok, I found another solution that worked for me, though not sure why it worked… but it did.
    When setting up the 2.6.1 blog, instead of going straight to the Permalinks tab in Settings first (as I did), go to the “General” page first.
    In the field “WordPress address (URL)”, change the url to either have the “www” or not. Click “Save Changes” on the bottom of the page. Then change it back. Repeat, at least to get it to whichever you’ll want your blog.

    And when I changed to https://www.maberui.webs.upv.es, and clicked SAVE, I can’t access wp-admin anymore and get ‘internet page cannot be found’. Have I screwed it up and by not understanding a piece of advice I just can’t access my blog admin anymore? Is there any way to revert this? (maybe installing WP again?)

    I’m desperate now. I wasn’t able to fix the permalink issue and now I cannot even access my blog wp admin…

    Thank you
    elena.
