# Non-default permalink = no posts found

 * I am trying to integrate wordpress into my website design to function for news
   headlines and content. When I change the permalink settings to anything other
   than default, the content will no longer show on my webpage. Instead I receive
   the message “Sorry, no posts matched your criteria.”
 * Making no changes to the code, I can toggle wordpress settings back to default
   permalink, and the content will show. With any setting, I can browse the base
   wordpress blog with no errors.

 * Hi,
 * WordPress is using url re-writing to generate link with meta-information as [http://mywebsite.com/mypost/](http://mywebsite.com/mypost/)
   or /thedate/thepost/
 * When choosing an other option than default, WordPress try to create / write in
   the file .htaccess in your wordpress directory.
 * You need to add writing right to your directory / .htaccess file.
