# Permalinks 404 Error

 * I tried to change my permalinks format and now all I get is 404 Errors no matter
   which page I try to access, including the admin page so I can’t even revert my
   change.
 * I found an option in the wp_options tables for permalinks but don’t know what
   the default value was?
 * Can anyone give me any guidance on how to put things back to the default /?p=…..
   format so I can at least get back in to my site?
 * Thank you.

 * Log in admin panel and select default settings and then save try if you have 
   your links working.
 * If that does not work rename .htaccess file which is hidden file.
