    Hi Guys,

    I have been emailing my hosting tech support all day and I have spent 3 hours searching to no avail for an answer to this problem.

    I spent 1 week setting up a new site, I have used the default theme, and as per usual used permalinks: /%postname%/

    Yesterday all was well, today all 404’s for all pages.
    have disabled all plugins, removed /%postname%/ and the site is now usable with ugly urls eg ?123. BUT the site will only work in Firefox, Opera or IE still return 404’s.

    I am not techie so I have 3 questions.

    1. is there an easy fix for this, perhaps a plugin?

    2. Can I just solve it by using just pages instead of posts and categories.

    3. If not can I downgrade 3.1.1 for a version that worked perfectly
    if so where can I get an older version.

    Thanks in advance guys.
    Graham.

    Thanks man, you’re right of course, I have been so busy learning other stuff, I have never gotten in to Wp, i have learned some of the admin stuff, but the mechanics of it are a bit over my head.

    I really would never be able to code myself, I feel this needs to be taught, sure I can paste a few snippets, but that’s all, I would never be able to write stuff other than a bit of simple html.

    I am just too old now with too little time to learn this as well.

    Thanks for the encouragement anyway ??
