Hi,
I might be a bit of a dummy, but I get a bit confused with a lot information i read about changing the standard permalinks into ‘pretty’ ones.
I’m using vantage premium.
How can I change the settings to postname with the links actually working?
Do I only have to change a single thing, in the htaccess file or should i also install a module (mod_overwrite) what people talk about in othere forum threads?
I don’t really know what needs to be done.
I installed the ‘custom permalinks’ plugin, can that be helpfull? With that plugin you can change the permalinks in the standard setting, but still the links are not working.
I’m very grateful if you can help me!
Mitch
Hi Mitch
Start out by heading to Settings > Permalinks, select Post Name and hit Save. Everything should be fine from there, if not we can then look into it further.
Hi Andrew,
This is the response I get when I try to open one of the pages:
Error occurred: 404 – not found

Hey Mitch, thanks for the update. Sorry to hear this. Are you able to get in touch with your hosts? If so, please mail them, let them know the problem, steps to run through or look at on their would be:

I have sent them an email and told them what the problem is! If i still have problems I’ll let you know. Thanks so far.
The problem is solved! Thanks. The host had an option to sync htaccess on the website in control panel.
Awesome! Really glad to hear you made progress here. Thanks for the update.
