Pretty links stopped working on WordPress site
-
I'm using /%postname%/ for my WordPress links and now I can't access any page, all I get is 404 error.
Even tried deleting Laragon and creating a new WordPress site, still getting 404 error.
I'm using v4.0.12.
Is it possible this has to do with mod_rewrite?
-
@leandroprz : Any images?
You must have made some actions that caused pretty liks stopped working.
-
I changed nothing, that's the strange thing.
I just used a fresh install of Laragon and a fresh install of WordPress and it's not working.
-
@leandroprz is Apache mod_rewrite enabled ?
- Right click in Laragon > Apache > httpd.conf
- Search for mod_write
- uncomment line #LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so ( remove # )
-
This line is not commented:
LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.soAnd my .htaccess looks like this:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /wordpress/
RewriteRule ^index.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /wordpress/index.php [L]
</IfModule>So it should be working, but it is not.
I even went back to a previous version (4.0.4) and I'm still getting a 404 error.
Edit: I had v4.0.3 installed on another computer, made a copy of that onto the computer where this wasn't working and now I don't get 404 errors. Weird.
