I'm having an issue with my wordpress where the reader can read page 1 and page 2 of my site but if they try to go further back to say page 5 it brings up a 404 error. I'm not sure exactly how to fix this so any help would be amazing, I'll throw in some +rep if it will sweeten the deal. The site in question is: http://tacothursday.com Hopefully someone on here is smart enough to help me fix this annoying problem!
It is a permalinks and .htaccess error... CHMOD .htaccess to 777 and then go to Wordpress Admin Panel > Settings > Permalinks and set your required one, or a cutom one, and that may solve the problem.
17 total posts. .htaccess file is now chmoded to 777 and I've previously changed the Permalink format but it's still not working.
It must be an error in my .htaccess file because I've set the chmod to 777 and 666 neither of which worked. Here's my .htaccess code hopefully someone can help me: # # # BEGIN WordPress # <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> # RewriteEngine On # RewriteBase / # RewriteRule ^(twitter)/?$ /wp-content/plugins/pretty-link/prli.php?s=$1 [QSA,L] # RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f # RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d # RewriteRule . /index.php [L] # </IfModule> # # # END WordPress Code (markup):
If you're showing 10 posts per page then you'll only have 2 pages - 10 posts on page 1 and 7 on page 2. Pages higher than page 2 will show a 404 error because there are no posts on those pages.
I also thinks it's a permalink problem. Do you followed any help regarding your wordpress theme ? More theme creators have their own forums and sites to support members.
qazu You're brilliant! Got it working thanks to you, had it set to 10 articles per page and just now set it to 3 and everything seems to be working. +rep to you and thanks everybody who replied!
Ha ha you're not the first with this issue.That's why I've asked how many posts do you have on your blog.
