Support » Plugin: Yoast SEO » Yoast WordPress SEO 1.6.3 – impossible to use pretty urls

  • I have now spent nearly 2 hours browsing around WordPress forums and documentation to find out why, when I try to choose any permalink structure other than the default ?p=N one, I get 404 Not Found errors for everything except my home page.

    I know my hosting provider has mod_rewrite activated.
    My .htaccess file has exactly the same contents as another site – with the same provider – whose pretty urls work fine.

    Note that whether I activate pretty urls via WP Settings or via Yoast SEO, the 404 error happens all the same.

    I was attempting a simple http://sitename/sample-post/ structure, NOT using categories or the sitemap. What am I missing here?

    Thanks
