    Hi there,

    I have been having a problem with a new install of wordpress where I cannot change the permalink options because the page only displays the header, intro paragraph, and sidebar. I have seen the problem from other people, but cannot seem to find an answer on how to fix it.

    I am using HostICan for my hosting service provider. Here are stats on the install:

    Apache version 2.2.8 (Unix)
    PHP version 5.2.5
    MySQL version 5.0.45-community
    Architecture x86_64
    Operating system Linux

    Many thanks for any help possible,

    Elliott

  • Hi,

    Add this code into the 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

    – Upgrade wordpress to the latest version
    – disable all plugins and activate them on one by one to find out the culprit
    – change theme to default and have a check

    Thanks,

    Shane G.

    Hi Shane,

    Thanks for the fast comeback- I really appreciate it.

    I managed to fix the problem by downgrading to 2.7.1, enabling the permalink settings I wanted, and then upgrading to 2.8.1 again. I will try the code you suggested to see if that lets me see the pane in 2.8.1, but at least I have a temporary solution until I figure it out.

    Thanks again

    Elliott

    Quick update:

    Seems the permalink page now works all of a sudden, although I am logging into it on a different machine. Thanks for the help anyway!
