   Hi, I'm using WAMP to develop a client website on my computer before I go live with it.

   I've set the server up correctly and have no trouble getting the dashboard and my changes to the theme settings to work.

   I'm using a static page for the home page, and am using pages rather than posts for the rest of the site.

   However, when I click on the page links (other than the home page), I'm getting 404 errors. Any idea what's going wrong here?

   Thanks!

   Yes, I followed the procedure at:

   http://codex.wordpress.org/Creating_a_Static_Front_Page

   and in Step 3, it refers to using page title for the permalink - although it doesn't actually tell you what that code should be - so after searching around for way too long for the correct code, I guessed at /%pagetitle%

   I have the exact same problem. My static frontpage shows up, I can access the backend fine, but all the subpages are inaccessible. Was there a solution figured out for this?

   you need to enable mod-rewrite, you can do this by clicking on the taskbar icon, click on apache, apache modules then click rewrite_module
