October 21, 201016 yr Hi I've been using MAMP to create a wordpress website offline. I went live with it this morning to test it out everything uploaded right database seems okay i can log into my admin area and edit things. Now when i go to the website URL the index page appears perfectly. however none of the rest of the site works. I just get "page cannot be found". In the admin area the page urls match up with what the links are trying to bring me to and all the pages are published etc and were running fine locally the site is Totalirishdancing.com All help appreciated!
October 21, 201016 yr I would guess it's down to setting permalinks, which need mod_rewrite. Maybe your webhost disables mod_rewrite by default. Take a look at this. You can probably still view the page using the old URL structure.
October 21, 201016 yr Author Hi tried all the htaccess rewrites didn't work but i'd say your definitely right about the problem i've emailed my hosting support.... thanks
October 21, 201016 yr You can verify for yourself if mod_rewrite has been enabled by your webhost: http://www.webune.com/forums/how-to-test-check-if-mod-rewrite-is-enabled-t40.html
