WordPress Error 404 after changing permalink on some pages
-
I’m having a problem since changing my permalinks from default to postname on a wordpress site. I’m getting 404 errors on pages but only the ones that are within the submenu called menus, all the other pages are working fine.
I have been searching on and off for an answer to this for a week or so now with no success.
I had deleting the htaccess. When I delete the htaccess the site is not functional at all. I’ve tried manually replacing the file with a new version but that didn’t work. I was told that just by changing the permalink to a different one and pressing save changes, this should generate a new htaccess file but it doesn’t. The web address produces a 404 error and if I were in permalinks and press save changes the screen just goes white and does nothing. Here’s what I’m getting with postname. http://www.5thview.com/menus/nibbles/
Not sure why it’s just those pages that are affected other than they are in a submenu. I’ve no idea how to fix this.
I should add that if I switch back to default permalinks it works fine again…
I would need specific instructions if poss as I’m a bit of a newb to the coding side etc although I can find my way around if directed…
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks…
