    ive got my site running as i had a problem after reinstalling wordpress over my site by accident.



    The content is showing on the homepage of http://www.haram2halal.com
    but if you try to click on any where on the site http://haram2halal.com/2011/09/do-you-think-you-are-a-good-muslim-poll-vote/ for example it gets an error 404.

    if i switch the permalink to http://haram2halal.com/?p=123 it works (default)

    but the one setting i want which is http://haram2halal.com/2011/09/sample-post/ (month and name) it doesnt work..

    check out the site everything you click apart from the homepage gets an error message.


    please help :(

    thanks in advance

    Looks like a mod_rewrite or .htaccess problem so:
    - make sure that the mod_rewrite apache module is loaded on the server
    - the .htaccess is there and content is ok
    - also check wordpress settings related to permalinks

    Your .htaccess file is not writable and so, the rules are not being written. Either chmod it to 666 (remember to revert back to 600 or 644 once done) and save the permalink settings again or write the permalink rules manually.
