Wordpress Permalink 404 errors

by Wolf on November 25, 2009

I have installed the base version for my CRW on my local server instead of always doing all updates on the web. The strange thing that happened after the local install and perdorming all update is that permalinks just did not want to work Turns out that the Xampp server I’m using by default hasAllowOverride disabled:

<Directory />
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
Order deny,allow
Deny from all
</Directory>

This can be found on yout Linux machine at /opt/lampp/etc/http.conf file

All you need to do to fix it is to change to: AllowOverride all

restart your xampp server and all should be cool.

When I create a mindmap for a new website to setup I like to indicate against each topic what this will represent in WordPress, eg is it a category, a page, a plugin etc. I have fond that the best way of doing this in Xmind is to assign a marker to each topic together with a legend for the marker say ahat they represent. If you would like to see an example the follow this link that’ll show you a mindmap for the Dungog Chamber of Commerce.
