 * I have a weird problem with the permalinks on my website.
 * When they are on default all the pages of the site show up ok including the custom
   post-types
 * However, when i try to change them to ‘pretty URLs’ (simply %postname%) the pages
   for a particular post type won’t show. I get ‘Page Not Found’ error, while all
   the other pages work just fun (such as the posts and wordpress default pages).
 * Help would very much appreciated on this matter.

 * I have done so many times and still haven’t found a viable solution.
 * The only thing I could think of is the httpd.config file not being set up correctly
   I have no clue where to go and find this file or if I make one, where to place
   it.
 * Other than that, I’ve tried everything else on that page. Like I said, it works
   for some and not others.

 * httpd.conf (not .config) is a server file, and you would PROBABLY need to ask
   your host about it. In fact, do that. Tell ’em that it doesn’t look like your.
   htaccess is being honored, and is there somethgin you need to do.
