   In trying to change the permalinks url to date/post-title WP requests an htaccess update.

   I've tried placing htaccess:

   -at the same level as WP files - the same level as wp-content ::: this disables the blog with server error

   -at the theme directory level - this disables the CSS

   I've seen other posts about broken stylesheet links when using htaccess on the forums but have not found a solution.

   How to have WP rewrite permalinks using htaccess and retain the stylesheet link?

   .htaccess should be in the WP root.
   To update it from the WP admin the file must be chmod 666 (bad security practice).
   Preferable is to c & p the code from the permalink page bottom when you change it.

   You are on apache/nix?
