I had the same issue, getting a 404. I figured out how to fix this:
What you need to do is create a page (not a post) and name it “local” (without the quotes).
Then go to dashboard => Permalinks.
Set “Custom Structure” and enter the following into the field exactly as below:
/%postname%/
Then click “Save Changes”
If you don’t have a .htaccess file created, you’ll be prompted to create one.
Log into your server via SSH, create your .htaccess file and copy/paste the .htaccess code that was presented to you on the permalink page – afterwards, make sure to chmod your .htaccess file to 777.
Your page withe local details will then show up on the page specified.
If you need further help with this, feel free to contact me through the info in my profile.
