It might help if you explained what plugin you’re talking about…
oh sorry about that … I am using the super cache plugin and I have the status set to ON
You need to create a file called .htaccess and add the mod-rewrite rules to it using a plain text editor. Then you need to upload the file to the /home/santa/public_html/mydomain.com folder using FTP.
To serve static html files your server must have the correct mod_rewrite rules added to a file called /home/santa/public_html/mydomain.com/.htaccess You must edit the file yourself add the following rules. Make sure they appear before any existing WordPress rules.
# BEGIN WPSuperCache
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^.*[^/]$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^.*//.*$

RewriteRule ^(.*) /wp-content/cache/supercache/%{HTTP_HOST}/$1/index.html [L]
</IfModule>
# END WPSuperCache
Rules must be added to /home/santa/public_html/mydomain.com/wp-content/cache/.htaccess too:
# BEGIN supercache
<IfModule mod_mime.c>
<FilesMatch “\.html\.gz$”>
ForceType text/html
FileETag None
</FilesMatch>
AddEncoding gzip .gz
AddType text/html .gz
</IfModule>
<IfModule mod_deflate.c>
SetEnvIfNoCase Request_URI \.gz$ no-gzip
</IfModule>
<IfModule mod_headers.c>
Header set Vary “Accept-Encoding, Cookie”
Header set Cache-Control ‘max-age=300, must-revalidate’
</IfModule>
<IfModule mod_expires.c>
ExpiresActive On
ExpiresByType text/html A300
</IfModule>
# END supercache
and then there’s a clickable button that says: Update_Mod_Rewrite Rules
am i suppose to click that button?
will just clicking the button work or do I need to do all the uploading ftp stuff?
Clicking the button will do it.
Okay I clicked on the rewrite button then went in filezilla:
/public_html/fitnessinspector.com
I view my .htaccess and it looks like this:
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
So should I delete everything in .htaccess and have this paste in instead to have my .htaccess look like this?
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
AddDefaultCharset UTF-8

I remember trying that and all my post and pages were not found and had error message that the post or page doesn’t exist.
