I have tried changing the permission of .htaccess file to 666 and now I have converted all my posts to Post-name permalinks successfully. I have also changed it back to 644. Problem resolved. Thanks

Problem resolved. Thanks

Hi ricardusexa, thank you for the link to ‘Using Permalinks’. I have tried changing the permission of .htaccess file to 666 and now I have converted all my posts to Post-name permalinks successfully. I have also changed back to 644. Thanks again.

Hi esmi, thank you for your help. At first I tried 766 but there was still an error message. Then I tried 767 and the problem was solved. As suggested by you, I have changed it back to 755 and everything is normal. Thank you for you fantastic response to my post for help.

By the way, I have previously posted in 2 other posts seeking help about my being unable to change from Default permalinks to Post-name permalinks. I have tried changing the permission of .htaccess file to 666 and now I have converted all my posts to Post-name permalinks successfully. I have also changed back to 644. Thanks for your suggestion to change permissions.

Thank you for the link to “Using Permalinks”. It says that “The URL to each post should be permanent, and never change — hence permalink.” Does that mean that I cannot change my existing permalinks from ‘Default’ to ‘Post Name’ anymore? In other words, I am stuck with ‘Default’ permalinks? Any alternative to change to ‘Post Name’ permalinks?

I did not deactivating/deleting the plugin, I just changed it back to “default” option and it works normally. I would still prefer to have the “Post Name” option if possible. Any suggestion what I should do to change it to “Post Name” option without problem?
