    Hi

    I'm using WP 2.8 ver., theme Atahualpa

    I am need someone's support with changing PERMALINK.

    I have a page and the default permalink is:
    http://www.crossxborder.com/?page_id=28

    This page's title is 'English' so I want to make the URL showing:
    http://www.crossxborder.com/English

    I already checked the WP support page but I guess I need little more than that.

    I will also need to change my submenu under English and also sub-sub menu...

    Your support would be appreciated.

    you will want to use
    /%postname%/
    more than likely - but review this

    thank you very much for the quick respond.

    So now it says I need to add these to .htacess

    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule . /index.php [L]

    I guess I need little more time to solve this since I am already feeling lost.
    I will work on it and I might post another help here...

    Hi,

    Once you change the permalinks and old post does not work then you need to add this code in htaccess file:

    # BEGIN WordPress

    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    ErrorDocument 404 /index.php?error=404
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
    </IfModule>

    # END WordPress

    Thanks,

    Shane G.

    @Shane: do you actually bother reading any of the posts?

    @yosh66: Can you use FTP to access your site? If so, I could talk you through creating an .htaccess file.
