• Hi all.

    I’m in a bind right now and have no idea how to resolve this.

    I’ve just created a blog – https://www.watchtelevisiononyourcomputer.p1h.us/ (still a work in progress as I’m still playing around with the css code).

    However, when I attempt to setup the permalinks, that page is BLANK!

    I’m getting this very following:

    Permalink Settings

    By default WordPress uses web URLs which have question marks and lots of numbers in them, however WordPress offers you the ability to create a custom URL structure for your permalinks and archives. This can improve the aesthetics, usability, and forward-compatibility of your links. A number of tags are available, and here are some examples to get you started

    .

    All my blogs are on the same IP… and therefore all of them seem to have lost the functionality of changing the permalinks to an seo friendly format.

    I’ve checked the .htaccess file in the root domain, all seems fine.

    This blog I’m creating is on 2.9.2, but doubt that’s the root cause.

    I really have NO IDEA what’s going on here.

    I’m also using the same akismet code across all blogs (about 20 of them) so I’m not sure if there’s a limit before you’re “blacklisted” or something to that effect.

    This is ridiculous!

    Any help would sure be appreciated.

  • Have you tried:

    – deactivating all plugins to see if this resolves the problem? If this works, re-activate the plugins one by one until you find the problematic plugin(s).

    – switching to the default theme to rule out any theme-related problems?

    – making your .htaccess file writeable?

    Hi there,

    I had this problem:

    Once I set the permalinks to /%postname%/ (custom structure), the permalinks settings page became blank, and so did my blog. Admin pages remained, except for edit posts and pages. I did everything suggested by esmi, above, but still no luck.

    I was able to extract myself from this bind by using PHPMyAdmin to go into the database and change the permalink structure to /%year%/%month%/%postname%/. Permalinks are stored in the wp_options table, with the option name permalink_structure. You might give this a try – but be careful.

    When I had this problem, the problem was with the servers PHP version. When my ISP reverted back to PHP version 5.2.13 from whatever they were using, the permalinks page appeared again.
