 * Try getting rid of `ErrorDocument 404 /index.php?error=404`. You don’t need it
   and it may be creating a problem.

 * I found the solution!
 * First you must change your wp-content folder permission on your hosting server.
   Login to your website ControlPanel and search for the folder wp-content. Then
   look for “change permission”, tick all the boxes and you should have the permission
   from 755 become 777.
 * Go to your WordPress > Setting > Permalink
 * Then choose your desired permalink. Or just type /%postname%/ at the Custom Structure
   to get the best link to your post.
 * Hit button Save Changes.
 * Now, go back to your control panel, change back the permission to 755 for your
   security.
 * Test it.
 * It should work.
 * I done it. The example of the blog I did change the permalink is [http://usahawanperkasa.com/blog/google-mengindex-facebook/](http://usahawanperkasa.com/blog/google-mengindex-facebook/)
 * It was a sweet success after one hour of try and error.
 * Good luck to you!
