There might be some plugin installed / some restriction in your .htaccess settings thats why any url got redirected to home page.
Checked link: http://supah.com/archives/portfolio_category/
available-paintings-store
Type of redirect: 301 Moved Permanently
Redirected to: http://supah.com/

i deactivated all plugins and the problem still happened. I am on a hostway hosting account. (i don’t know if that is an issue, but I saw people with strange WP issues using godaddy.)

here is my .htaccess file – i’m not sure why the code is repeated.
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPressaccess */.??* *~ *# */HEADER* */README* */_vti*
# disable the server signature- helps with preformance
ServerSignature Off
# since it's out of fashion to use www- redirect URLs to non-www
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.website\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^.*$ http://website.com%{REQUEST_URI} [R=301,L]
RewriteBase /
# keep the URLs clean:
# if someone asks for index.php- rewrite the URL without it
RewriteRule ^(.*?)/?index\.php$ $1 [NC,R=301,L]
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
<Files wp-config.php>
Order Allow,Deny
Deny from all
</Files>
Kindly keep this part only and try it once
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]

i deleted ithemes security, saved your .htaccess and now SOME pages load!
Only problem – the portfolio pages do not load. I’m much further than where i was.
I don’t understand why this would continue to happen. Since the pretty links are virtual directories, (there’s no actual http://supah.com/portfolio/polly-siamese but that’s how they used to load before I recreated the website) I don’t understand how it works.
Thank you grey – you have already helped me incredibly.
It seems that you created some portfolio items in your WordPress admin panel. Those are visible here.
This is one of those portfolio item.

This suddenly loaded! Thank you! I don’t really understand – perhaps it caught up with itself? I have no idea. Either way. I’m very grateful for your help and talking the issue out with me.
