    All of my links have crapped out for some reason. The hypertext link paths are all correct but every attempt at connecting to any of my pages or posts is met with a 404 error. This started with the previous upgrade. I thought 2.8.6 might fix it but it hasn’t. All of my posts exist. I can access them through my WordPress Editor. All the info is there it just isn’t being accessed across the net. Anyone have any ideas?

  • seanchappell,

    Double check that your permalink settings are correct: Settings > Permalinks.

    Doc4,

    My permnalinks are all correct. Nothing there has changed. Any other thoughts?

    Miraculously, all my links work now. I don’t know what the problem was but I don’t believe it was a WordPress issue. Probably has something to do with my hosting company maintaining its database. Thanks Doc4 for your help.

    Noticed that a page disappeared from my blog header. It is in my list of pages. I’ve tried to figure out the problem but to no avail. Need help. Sorry to admit that my technical know how is quite limited.

    I’m having this same problem.

    Ever since the upgrade to 2.8.6 my permalinks broke. I made no changes other than to upgrade.

    Turning off permalinks fixes it but my url’s are all wrong.

    My .htaccess file is chmodded to 666

    And it looks like this

    # BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /blog [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
