Re: please help me with dashboard
It sounds like your .htaccess file is not being updated after you save the permalink structure. Save them again in WordPress and then you'll see a message below that says something like "Your htaccess file is not writable so you'll need to manually update it with the code below".
Then you'll need to copy that block of code and edit your .htaccess file on your server which you'll find in the root directory of your site. There will be a bunch of
wp- .php files in the same folder including your
wp-config.php file.
Or better yet, just change the permissions on your .htaccess to 777 so your WordPress instance can write to it and do this automatically. After it's been updated, make sure to go back and change the permissions to 644.
Here are more details on how you can troubleshoot and fix this, see the "
Fixing Permalink Problems" section near the middle of the page.
