I haven’t encountered any problem so far but I’ll check the support forum to see what they complain about and if something doesn’t work on my site as they tell, I’ll inform my site’s hosting managers. Thank you.

Doccorner:
So I think you can’t use it.

If your pages still don’t work, DLO’s advice is OK. Apply it carefully.

After you change the rewrite.php file with the correct one:
choose the default permalink and save it.
Then apply this one:
/index.php/%postname%/
and save it.
your pages will work without any problem.

@ to Doccorner:

1- about the .htaccess file I have told above:
a) First of all, ask your hosting managers if their servers support isapi_rewrite component. If the answer “no”, you can’t use it. ?f they say “yes”, that’s OK.
b) after you upload it into your site, check its name. if it is htaccess you must change the name like this: .htaccess
If you can use this .htaccess file in your site, everything is OK. You don’t need to get Linux.

2- about your pages problem:
Follow those steps carefully:
1- Using FTP, enter “includes” and remove the existing rewrite.php file. Then put the correct rewrite.php file into the same place (includes). To download the correct file click here: rewrite.php
2- On Your WordPress Blog: Turn your permalinks to the default, save this option, then turn on your custom permalinks and save it again.

The news I have informed above is for the blogs and sites that are hosted by Windows servers(not linux). And the server must use isapi_rewrite component.

Great news!!!!
If your site is in server that supports isapi_rewrite component you can change your permalinks directly as /%postname%/ . To do this, you must first put the .htaccess file below which is for windows servers.

# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule (.*) index.php/$1 [NC,L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress

But first of all, ask your server managers if their servers support isapi_rewrite component.
So you don’t have to continue with “index.php”. And this new style of permalink doesn’t harm SEO or your archived pages in Google. I applied and made sure: it works very well. Visitors from Google can continue coming and reading my blogs.

You don’t need to enter into the rewrite.php file to find the place of the code.
Enter “includes” and remove the existing rewrite.php file. Then put the correct rewrite.php file into the same place (includes).

Thank you very much DLO!!
Thanks to all members here..
DLO says: “After you upload the new rewrite.php, you have to turn your permalinks to the default, save this option, then turn on your custom permalinks and save it again.”
I did so. It worked.
For Turkish members: I told here >>> how to do it.

Thank you very much DLO!!
