Hi Brad W,

Are you currently using my Netfirms Pretty Permalinks plugin? The default rules should look something link this:

# BEGIN WordPress

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]

# END WordPress

You can copy and paste that into your .htaccess file, however your RewriteBase will vary depending if you have WordPress installed in a sub-directory. Let us know if that solves anything for you.

” ….you’ll need to change your .htaccess manually to the default mod_rewrite rules WordPress will generate.”

Exactly how and where do I find those default mod_rewrite rules?

I had pretty permalinks working (without your plug-in) on my netfirms account until a couple of weeks ago. Now they’ve stopped, and I can’t navigate past the home page unless I revert to the default permalinks.

I deleted the .htaccess file on the server, selected the desired pretty permalinks structure, which created a new .htaccess file. Which has nothing in it, as far as I can see. And the permalinks still don’t work.

Any advice?
