by Matthew Shane Roe

Hey folks,

So this is what I am looking at. I am unable to access any post from my current feed. When I click on the post link from my rss feed addy using feedburner and the WP default feed it takes me to a 404 page not found error report. Any idea what is going on and how I can fix it? I have tried this with two different themes so I don't think it's the theme that is the problem.. Anyways, I appreciate the help and I hope someone can give me an answer to solve this!

My website link: mrskidroe.com
My feed url for the WP default: mrskidroe.com/feed
Feedburner: feeds.feedburner.com/mrskidroerss

    Clicking on your post title also goes to a 404 page.

    It seems you changed the permalink structure but probably it didn't take effect to the .htaccess file due to permissions.

    Change the permalink back to default and see if that works.

      Yes. You have 3 options.
      1- Create a .htaccess file with the code mentioned below and place it on your root directory.

      2- Temporally change your root directory permissions to 777 (write down your current permissions), go to WP permalinks, change the permalink, save it. YOU MUST CHANGE the root permissions back so you don't face security issues. (Wordpress will automatically generate the .htaccess)

      3- If you already have a htaccess file, than you have to include this code in it.

      Code:
      # BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
