My Wordpress permalinks aren't working...

    None of the permalinks on my new site, http://videogamereign.com are working. I used %category%/%postname%. I also tried just %postname%, and that didn't work either... Try going to the site and clicking on a post... It doesn't work.

    Any idea as to what is going on?


    This is not advertising! The site currently has no ads, so there is no benefit for me.

    Did you update your .htaccess file? When you use URLs like this, you need to add the .htaccess file entry at the bottom of the control center page to the root of your WordPress web.

    What exactly do I add to it... I have a .htaccess file, but it is blank. WP is supposed to automatically update it, but I guess it didn't. So what do I add?

    You must check with file permissions of .htaccess, as permalinks are defined with help of htaccess .

    you can fix this problem simply by adding the mod_rewrite rules to your .htaccess file. you can find mod_rewrite rules in the bottom of the permalink page, and remember to update your .htaccess file every time you cahnge the permalinks

    You can find more info on my site.. good luck :D
