    hey,
    I am having a big problem with my permalink. I posted about it in question # 2 on http://www.gluedideas.com/support/viewtopic.php?id=116

    But basically some of my pages seem to not have there permalink style changing back to "default" from "nice" style even though i changed it in my admin. Furthermore, since it is trying to read an old permalink, i have since moved the location of the page and it results in a page not found.

    i exported my wp file and i noticed in the xml this line for one onf the not-working pages:

    <guid isPermaLink="false">http://fenderbluesjunioramps.com/speakers/</guid>

    but the working pages have this:

    <guid isPermaLink="false">http://fenderbluesjunioramps.com/?page_id=6</guid>

    i don't know why some of the pages not stuck with old permalink steructure. is there any way to clear it from somewhere so i can fix this issue? thankS!!!!

    Is your .htaccess set to 777?

    You can use FTP client like Filezilla (freeware).
    Right click on .htaccess file - Properties. Change to 777

    i wouldnt change the .htaccess to 777 if i was you.
    changing permissions to 777 means everyone can read, write and execute the file and gain access.
