 * All of a sudden all the internal links to my own website stopped working, giving
   an error as if the files are not there. Permalinks, Categories, “Read the rest
   of this entry” etc, none of it is working.
 * But still, if I go into admin, I can actually find and edit all of my old archived
   articles, but even if I re-publish them they do not appear on my website. Anyone
   have any idea what might be going on and how to rectify it? Check it out at:

 * When you made the change, did your .htaccess file get updated? Or, on the bottom
   of the Permalinks page, did WordPress tell you what needs to be added?

 * I don’t have access on my .htaccess file, i’m hosted by Yahoo. Nothing appears
   on the bottom of the permalinks page when i made changes on the option… All links
   are working when on “default” option.
 * Here’s what I did thinking it would fix the problem, i activated a Permalinks
   plugin (from yahoo webhosting) but still nothing happen.
