 * Hey,
 * I searched through the forums and I wasn’t able to find any resolutions that 
   helped me.
 * I’m receiving a 404 error with my Go Daddy hosting whenever my permalinks are
   saved to anything but default.
 * Any insight as to what may cause this would be greatly appreciated.

 * As long as I can remember, GD .htaccess needs to add
 *     ```
       AddHandler x-httpd-php5 .php
       AddHandler x-httpd-php .php4
       ```
   
 * in other words:
 *     ```
       AddHandler x-httpd-php5 .php
       AddHandler x-httpd-php .php4
       # 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
