I am trying to create pretty permalinks through WordPress and I keep getting 404 errors. I am combing the Internet and I cannot find any solution. I've never had a problem with this, so I'm completely at a dead end.
Hosting is located in the "Network Solutions" section. I called them and they sent me this link: http://www.networksolutions.com/support/PHP-ini-for-UNIX-Shared-Hosting-FAQ
What I tried: 1. Adding the php.ini file to my root. 2. Adding the php.ini file to the cgi-bin folder 3. Adding overwrite commands to the .htaccess file (which is located in the root directory of my site).
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /stage/
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /stage/index.php [L]
</IfModule>
After each of them, I saved the permalink settings to discard the changes.
I am still getting 404 error.
