    hey everbody, i’m fairly new to word press, but have been developing in php for 2 years. I’ve recently been playing with mod_rewrite but it never works. Now that i installed WP and tryed to get it working VIA the admin section it still won’t work. i have wp_list_pages listing the pages and when i click on them it just says page not found. Oh yeah, and i’m doing this all on local host. My .htaccess file is writeable, and wp inserted the code into it.

    so i think it might be a problem with my appache or php. can anybody throw ideas at me, to get it working. Even if there completely noob ideas, i wouldn’t rule anything out lol.

    Assuming mod_rewrite is loaded and enabled then you need to change the deafult “AllowOveride” setting in order for Apache
    to take notice of any .htaccess directives in the default website

    Open your apache httpd.conf file.

FIND SECTION BEGINNING
<Directory "/var/www/html">

Options Indexes FollowSymLinks

AND CHANGE
AllowOverride None
TO
AllowOverride All

Order allow,deny
Allow from all

</Directory>

SAVE FILE AND THEN

# service httpd restart
