Oops – https://www.mccannas.com/blog/ is where the problem resides.

Michael, thank you so much for pushing me to that tidbit of advice. I’ve emailed the appropriate info to Verio, and I have my fingers and my toes crossed. I just found out yesterday that my job is going offshore, so being able to have a nice working site with a blog will be a big help while I job hunt.

Best wishes,
Laurie McCanna

I’ve tried several things, trying to narrow down the problem:
1. I switched themes, thinking maybe I had munged something up in my editing. Links to comments and categories still wouldn’t work.
2. I read the info about where the .htaccess should live – at https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Using_Permalinks#Fixing_Permalink_Problems
and I put it in the https://www.mccannas.com/blog/ folder. There wasn’t an .htaccess file there. I left it empty because my server is Unix – and I don’t know if they are using Apache (as you can probably guess, I just stepped way over my head). So the .htaccess is there now.
3. I updated the permalinks using the admin console again.

And last but not least, the links still are not working. I’d really appreciate any help.

Thanks,
Laurie McCanna

Does anyone else have any suggestions? I’ve seen a number of postings re: moving WP2 and having broken links, and I haven’t seen a fix yet.

Many thanks,
Laurie McCanna

Thanks again, but I tried and I’m still getting the now dreaded:

Thanks so much for the quick reply. That extra slash was in there from some point at the initial install and I wondered about it. That’s now fixed, I tried updating permalinks again, thinking they probably needed to be refreshed. I’ve also edited the wp-admin.php to put a timer on the cache as suggested in another post. Yet the song remains the same when clicking on category and comment links:
