Cheers Sam,

Used the redirection plugin and were redirecting.

Great, I just read that somewhere else but understood it was for htaccess file permissions.

Just changed back to 644 in index.php and were live!

Thank you so much riacle for getting back to me ??

Was error msg: 500 Internal Server Error

I’ve been literally beside myself for the last 3 days with every spare second self educating on google and WP forums, buggering with .htacces files.

I can finally move on to create the site in depth after sorting out the galleries and friendly urls (more htaccess files).

Back in business…ahh. and maybe a holiday to Byron Bay one day too…

OK, so thanks to Zenpih and riacle I got the options on my permalinks tab/page to show up again.

I replaced both htaccess files, root and public folder, with the new file as created with Zenpih method and changed code in …./misc.php

Even though I really want friendly urls i saved as default structure for now.

Opened site in a new window and it’s still not live…

Humf…2 steps back, 1 forward, but still no complete fix in sight.

Great. So it’s not just me that is having problems with this. Before finding this thread I already tried many different things and was beginning to think I had to start from scratch.

I’ve now tried Netzies ‘quick fix’, no fix. I will now try Zenpihs method as worked for riacale.

Is strange that this glitch has not been sorted yet by WP tech guys.

Cheers and good luck to future readers.
