    wordpress says "You should update your .htaccess now."

    and then says "If your .htaccess file were writable, we could do this automatically ... "

    so i go chmod the .htaccess to 777 and it came up with the same error message.

    So it gave me another option. 

    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
    PHP:
    to insert that in the file

    i did that and still wont work

    help me

    thanks

    If you manually updated the .htaccess with the provided code, the links should work.
    what is your blog url?

    It should work, assuming that you edited .htaccess (no characters before the ".").

    Out of curiosity, what is AllowOverride set to in your Apache configuration?
