 * Dear marvinLabs
 * I noticed a strange error in the latest udpate of Wp customer area. My previous
   setup was using postname as my permalink settings. However, after upgrading to
   the latest version, I found that the private page links do not work anymore. 
   I guest a page not found 404 error.
 * When I installed the plugin in a fresh WP isntallation I realised that the default
   permalink is now set to the custom value ‘/index.php/%year%/%monthnum%/%day%/%
   postname%/’ which doesn’t accept any other values.
 * Can you please fix this. having ‘index.php’ at the start of all my client’s urls
   isn’t an option.
 * thanks.

 * Hi
 * You will not find /index.php/ anywhere in our code. There must be something wrong
   elsewhere. Maybe your htaccess file?

 * Ok, looks like its an apache issue, my mod_rewrite module doesn’t seem to be 
   working and as a result default WP htaccess is not being executed….
 * [EDIT]
 * I discovered that my Apache installation configuration was not allowing htaccess
   to [override the directive](https://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Permalinks#Fixing_Other_Issues).
