    Hello,

    When I update the permalink structure of new website from Plain to Post Name, it gives 404 Error.

    This is the error I get:

    “Not Found

    The requested URL /take-a-tour/ was not found on this server.”

    I tried to find some solutions online and updated my .htaccess file with the below code but problem still continues. What could be the problem and its possible solution?

    [ Moderator note: code fixed. Please wrap code in the backtick character or use the code button. ]

    #BEGIN WordPress

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php $ - [L]
RewriteCond % {REQUEST_FILENAME} ! -f
RewriteCond % {REQUEST_FIELENAME} ! -d
RewriteRule ./index.php [L]
</IfModule>

#END WordPress

  • Try changing to default WordPress theme like Tweentysixteen and then revert back to your theme. Disable plugins one by bone and see if it resolves

    Thank you but this method didn’t resolve the issue.
    I have tried this method and tried it again but didn’t help. ??

    Try clearing your browser cache and post your site address

    No even this doesn’t help.

    I have tried almost all methods mentioned in different forums but nothing seems to work.

    Can someone help me with a solution?

    @kryptojdubai: I see a typo in your .htaccess:

    RewriteCond % {REQUEST_FIELENAME} ! -d

    So, correct that line so it looks like this instead:

    RewriteCond % {REQUEST_FILENAME} ! -d

    and then see if that makes any difference for you.

    Thanks Girlie.

    That typo wasn’t in the actual .htaccess, the actual one had correctly mentioned.

    However, I have fixed the problem now.

    Had to add `Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
    AllowOverride FileInfo` in the directory.

    The problem is resolved.

    Thank you all.
