admin crash after editing permalinks

    as a mistake I changed my permalinks in the admin
    i know its not smart, but now i can no longer access my admin, and change it back to default. When i type in the /wp-admin it redirects to the home page.

    i think i changed the default option for the permalinks into another ‘common option’: date and name based in the admin.
    how ever i can still see the pages with the older permalink structure when i type in an old permalink for instance https://www.studiopolak.nl/?page_id=180.

    I tried to overwrite some files via FTP, those where: admin.php, index.php, option-permalink.php, setup-config.php, wp-config.php, wp-login.php, wp-settings.php. but non of them made any difference

    My website is operational but without the layout of css
    it shows basic html: https://www.studiopolak.nl, and no access to the admin

    if any one knows a solution to get back in the admin
    i will be very pleased

    best regards
    dylan

  • hi Dylan, did you find any answer? It happened to me exactly the same and I don’t think it is an accident, I even reinstalled wordpress, changed the permalinks structure again and my admin crashed again.

    Now I have Windows 7 x64 and Web-Developer Server Suite if any importance. The same permalinks structure worked before with Windows 7 x86 and Xampp Lite.

    I’m not a programmer, I’m only a graphic designer, please help.

    with xampp lite, you can set the fancy permalinks in the httd.conf file, but not sure about the WDSS -you may can make them work
    also, you may review this

    Hi,

    Reset your desired permalink from wordpress admin area and add this code in htaccess:

    # BEGIN WordPress

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
ErrorDocument 404 /index.php?error=404
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>

# END WordPress

    Now, check with the blog posts, pages and admin area.

    Thanks,

    Shane G.
