    Hi!

    Earlier today i changed host, from a normal shared host to a VPS, when this was done and i was done uploading my files and databases etc, none of my sites that are
    using wordpress was working as they shoud. They have all started to get 404 - Not Found errors at everypage page, post, category and yeah, everything except the home page.
    Well, i got no clue how to fix this, i googled the internet for 2 hours and didn't help at all.
    You can see here for an example -> http://www.bestaffordablecruises.com -> click a category / post etc.

    As well as you can see what happends when you click a link in google.. -> http://www.google.se/search?gcx=c&s...gc.r_pw.&fp=54613390f0c46c50&biw=1333&bih=649

    Please, if you know anything about this or how i can fix it, tell me! :(
    Thank you
    Regards
    Oskar

    When you moved the files did you also move the .htaccess files? I would go to the permalinks section in the wp-admin and create new .htaccess files based on your settings.

    Also try searching Google for permalinks as that's the feature of wordpress you are having a problem with

    Yes your permalinks are broke and install 404 to start so in the future, if your content is 404, it automatically goes to the front page.
