In reply to: Help! My links don’t work.hmmm, that clears up a lot!!
So the .htaccess file will have that information then? Is that why my links aren’t working..because the.htaccess isn’t working right? my .htaccess file is blank.Still waiting for a response from my host about the mod_rewrite and AllowOverride.
Does anyone have any other ideas I can try while I wait for them. Maybe there is something I am supposed to do with the .htaccess file.
Thanks!

I did not have a .htacces file in my root, so I went to the permalinks page and learned to create a .htaccess file. But it didn’t say what format to save it in, so I saved it as a .txt. All I did was open notepad and save it as 1.htaccess.txt and then imported it via ftp to folder blog/. Then I did the properties > and changed the number 644 to 666 and then renamed the file as .htaccess (without the 1).
What is most confusing is the folders that shows in the browser. For instance, when I click on the RSS link and it opens http://www.maxwho.com/blog/feed/ I don’t have a folder in the blog folder called “feed”. Same with clicking on the link for category product review..I dont have a folder for category/product-review. Odd.
I did email my host to find out about the mod_rewrite thing. I don’t know how to see if they are properly enabled, but maybe my host can help.
Any other ideas I can try to get these links working?
Thank you!
