    I’m sorry if this question was already answered, I started to look at other subjects but when I saw there was 5300 subjects I just could’nt look at all the pages 😀

    So here is my problem: when I first installed WordPress for my website, everythin was working okay but then, comments stopped workking. When the visitors click on ‘commenting’ they encounter an error message:

    Error 404 – Not Found

    Ooops, I cannot find you the page you are looking for. You may try to search my site another keyword or use the navigation on your right to browse my site.

    I hope someone can help me fix it!

    Here is the link to my website if you want to take a look. It’s in French so if you have any problem to understand, let me know 😉

  • yup, is an easy fix (and I’m Canadian…so I understand 2/3 of the french..lol)

    Anyway, when you hover over the ‘commenter’ link, check out the url it’s trying to go to…..
    http://www.lionandlamb.fr/http:/www.lionandlamb.fr/sujet/non-classe/#respond

    It’s all jacked up….it’s a simple permalinks issue…I’ve seen it happening a fair bit lately

    You just need to reset your permalinks
    from the admin area settings->permalinks

    set your permalinks back to default and save
    Now test your comments (you may have to delete the .htaccess file off your server for it to work)

    they should work, then, you can reset your permalinks back to how you want them and all should be well

    My first guess would be your permalink structure …

    The comment link is pointing to:
    http://www.lionandlamb.fr/http:/www.lionandlamb.fr/sujet/non-classe/#respond

    The photos link is pointing to:
    http://www.lionandlamb.frcategory/photos/

    Neither of which will resolve correctly. This page may help more: http://codex.ww.wp.xz.cn/Using_Permalinks

    Thanks RVoodoo! It’s finally working!

    And it was easy to fix! Thanks again

    Omg thanks I’ve been having that problem foreverr and I got it work! My only question is, what can I customize my permalinks to to make sure the comments still work, but my pages have a nice name?

    Can I aslo ask the same question as v. arias?

    I followed the directions above as I had the same problem and when the permalinks are set to default they work perfectly. However, I then can’t change the URLs of each page to make them “pretty”.

    Following your instructions RVoodoo whih then say… they should work, then, you can reset your permalinks back to how you want them and all should be well

    As soon as ai rest them back to the “pretty” version, the 404 error comes back.
    Help really appreciated.
    Smiles,
    Amethyst

    Fixed it at my end. Thanks. 🙂
