Vax started the forum topic permalink /about instead of /index.php/about in the group How-To and Troubleshooting: 14 years, 2 months ago

I noticed that on buddypress.org, the links for pages are in the format of ’buddypress.org/about’. With my site, they are all ’buddypress.org/index.php/about’, and when I remove the ’index.php’ portion from my permalink settings, all of the links break.

It also seems that this is why buddypress won’t work at all on my site… so, suggestions?

@Roopunk, I’m not sure my host would allow mod-rewrite to be enabled. Thoughts?

OK apparently I was wrong, I just did a second install in a /wp/ sub directory and I’m getting the same 404 error message when I try to access any BP link. What’s the deal?!?

I have just the opposite problem… I have WP in the root directory, and everything works fine except BP because it won’t use the /index.php/ like the rest of my permalinks… http://snm.preytontech.net/members doesn’t work (I assume because of the way my host has things configured) http://snm.preytontech.net/index.php/members/ WOULD work (based…[Read more]
