WP 2.6 upgrade worked but big issue after

    I just upgraded to 2.6. Upgrade went fine and I can get into the admin.

    My site home page comes up but any subsequent links get me a:

    “Sorry, no posts matched your criteria.”

    Everything worked prior to 2.6. My site uses heavily moded CSS but I can’t see it being an issue as it is just callinging up different graphics.

    So odd. Any ideas

    **UPDATE: Ok this is weird. Even though I tell the page to use a certain template it is defaulting to the archive template. WTF. Back I go…..

    Nope I am not running IIs. I am running apache.

    Thing is I originally created the site in a subfolder in my main site hosted on godaddy. The permalink option 2 worked.

    I then transfered the site to Netnation but I need the index.php in the permalink to be able to use semi pretty links.

    Any ideas how I can get it to work with just pretty permalinks? It has been driving me crazy since day one.

    If I ever figure out the solution I’ll move all my hosting from Godaddy.

    NOTE: Fresh WP installs onto Netnation have no problems with pretty permalinks.

    I run on GoDaddy and the pretty permalinks work just fine for me. Nothing special I had to do for it.

    Hi! I’m experiencing the exact same misbehavior of mrkingid:
    after upgrading to wordpress 2.6 clicking on post links no longer works and a 404 page is returned.

    – simply updating permalink structure does not work
    – disabling plugins does not work
    – This advice on https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/189058?replies=1 fixes the problem!
    “on the Settings->Permalinks screen, add some values in for the category and tag bases. The words “category” and “tag” will do just fine. As long as they are not blank, this should work around the bug.”

    Thanks otto42

    I have tried everything suggested – my pages load up – but they are blank, no error message now.

    I tried removing the index.php – no luck
    added category and tag – error message removed but blank page?

    rawalex: if you use index.php in your permalinks you just need to add text in the category and tag boxes on your permalinks page and save.

    I have the same problem, I can’t get rid of index.php from permalinks
