Forum: Everything else WordPress
In reply to: mod_rewrite and “friendly urls”Hey macmanx, or anyone,
Do I need to modify the .htaccess file in order for the Permalinks to work? If so, can you tell me what the drill is? Can I do it from Manage -> Files, and make the change there?
Thanks in advance!

In reply to: mod_rewrite and “friendly urls”Thanks macmanx,
I did that, using the suggested structure:
/%year%/%monthnum%/úy%/%postname%/
While my entry headings were changed accordingly (as shown in the browser’s status bar), the link wasn’t found when I clicked it. Went to my not found page.
Any ideas? Is there another setting, or a special structure I need to use? Or does this look more like a mod_rewrite problem?
Thx.
Thanks, everybody. The tutorial was very helpful, and I made progress.
Once I made the changes to these URI-related items, I logged in to my buddy’s blog with my old admin info. Ah, now I get it. Once I was in the admin area, it dawned on me that it was probably looking for a theme that wasn’t there. Indeed, that was the problem. I reverted to a WP Classic theme, which is evidently there upon install, and oila!
Mahalo.
Wow, you guys are fast! ??
Moshu, would it be a reasonable approach to open the abc.sql database locally and do a Find and Replace on it, changing the WP URI and Blog URI?
Or should I re-Export? I suppose I could re-Export from my main site, but what in the world would I do if that wasn’t an option?
I’m glad I’m taking the time to grasp this now, rather than when it really matters. ??
Thanks again.
