 * Hi all,
 * I want to change my permalinks from dynamic to ‘fancy. The problem is it doesn’t
   seem to work. I even tried to CHMOD from 644 to 777. Still nothing.
 * What is still left?
    Wordpress keeps saying ‘update htaccess’. And I have put
   the script below in the htaccess. Sometimes with the /blog/ and without it didn’t
   work ..
 * /
    /index.php /.htaccess /blog/wordpressfiles.php etc.
 *     ```
       # BEGIN WordPress
       <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
       RewriteEngine On
       RewriteBase /blog/
       RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
       RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
       RewriteRule . /blog/index.php [L]
       </IfModule>
       # END WordPress
       ```
   
 * What do I need to do in order to make this work?
 * Thanks
