Thread: stuck on a fresh install / permalinks

stuck on a fresh install / permalinks

Hya all, am a Classipress newbie and have a question on the classical permalink issue.
As I cannot find the answer myself I hope someone is willing to get me started.

WP and Classipress is freshly installed on a Linux hosting, no other plugins yet.
When I follow the documentation that tells me to change the permalink into /%postname%/
all links return a "page not found" error.

So I changed the permalink back to /?p=123, to make it work.
Now they look like this: /?ad_listing=test2
I don't like these standard permalinks.
What can I do to make it work the way it should be?

This is the .htaccess provided by WP that didn't do the trick:

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