    It's your .htaccess file I think, you have it setup to show your pages a certain way. Try making it the deafult way or edit your .htaccess file.

    I am no expert but I will bet you messed with the permalinks and have not updated the htaccess file. Chmod the file and then update it again.

    just change the permission on the file and you can then change the permalinks back to what you want.

    What do you have written in your .htaccess?

    This is the code:

    # BEGIN WordPress
    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
    </IfModule>

    # END WordPress

    The file should go to the root folder " / "

    did you copy the code to your .htaccess file?

    Do you have your blog on a different folder? Like /blog ?

    If so that's where you must put the file.

    • Account folder at top (.htaccess file is in this folder) then domain's in that
    • websiteforumz.com
    • dragonstardesign.com
    • blog.dragonstardesign.com (sub domain)

    I downloaded the .htaccess file editied it as with the code and uploaded it again.
