404 page after changing hyperlinks configuration

  • Hello guys!
    I do not know why i change the configuration of my permalinks from
    POSTNAME :https://c51.444.myftpupload.com/sample-post/ to
    PLAIN: https://c51.444.myftpupload.com/?p=123
    but now i want to change to the previous config but i got a 404 page not found error.

    I have research thru internet and they suggest to modify the permissions of the htaccess file to 666 which ihave done already, some just say to go the permalinks options on WP and then click on save button but this did not solve my issue too.

    Im kinda thinking that the real solution is in the htaccess but i really do not know what would be the exact config to use. Here it is my htaccess:
    #BEGIN WordPress
    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /
    RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
    # END WordPress

    here is it the staging site where my site is running now: https://c51.444.myftpupload.com/

    Thanks in advanced for your help

    Did the “PLAIN” (i.e. default) work?

    If the default worked, then try reading Using_Permalinks before setting a custom permalink structure again.

    i have deleted the htaccess file, changed permission clicking on permalinks options and also adding the following section on the htaccess file:
    <Directory >
    AllowOverride All
    </Directory>

    But none of this has worked for me.

    Any other suggestions or section to modify on htaccess.

    deleted the htaccess

    After deleting htaccess file, did you reset your custom permalinks back to the default setting?

    If you did, what happened? Did it work?

    Actually no, i did not worked. I deleted the htaccess then went to wordpress to permalinks options and set the permalinks configuration i desired, clicked save button, refresh and nothing happened.

    Could be something with the directory section i sent u above?

    Thank you very much for your help
