Title: Non-Default Permalink Not Working Last modified: August 21, 2016 --- # Non-Default Permalink Not Working * Resolved [knucleheads](https://wordpress.org/support/users/knucleheads/) * (@knucleheads) * [12 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/non-default-permalink-not-working/) * Hello everyone, I have the paid s2Member Pro, and it all installed perfectly. * I am trying to change the Permalinks of my website, yet it is not working. On the WordPress Control Panel –> Settings –> Permalinks Select Post Name –> Save Changes * Now, if I visit a non-homepage link, it throws the error: * > Not Found > The requested URL /PAGE-NAME/ was not found on this server. * If I change it back, I am good-to-go and it all works. * Can I do anything to fix this? Or is there a reason to NOT have the Post Name as the Permalinks? * Thank you! * [https://wordpress.org/plugins/s2member/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/s2member/) Viewing 7 replies - 1 through 7 (of 7 total) * Thread Starter [knucleheads](https://wordpress.org/support/users/knucleheads/) * (@knucleheads) * [12 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/non-default-permalink-not-working/#post-4908410) * Would like to mention that I have the WP Super Cache plugin installed. Not because I need it at the moment… just thinking of the future. * Could this be what is causing problems? * If I go WordPress Control Panel –> Settings –> WP Super Cache It tells me * > Permlink Structure Error > A custom url or permalink structure is required for this plugin to work correctly. > Please go to the Permalinks Options Page to configure your permalinks. * [Cristián Lávaque](https://wordpress.org/support/users/anguz/) * (@anguz) * [12 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/non-default-permalink-not-working/#post-4908471) * It doesn’t sound like an s2Member problem, but you could try resaving these: * WP Admin -> Settings -> Permalinks WP Admin -> s2Member -> General * Re. caching, just make sure you don’t have database or object caching enabled if they’re available in that plugin, they’re known to cause random problems. * I’ve read good things about WP Super Cache, and there’s also QuickCache, which we put out and works very nice too. * If none of the above helps, you can ask your webhost about it. You can also disable your plugins one by one, checking after each if the problem is gone, in case it’s introduced by one of them. * I hope that helps. 🙂 * Thread Starter [knucleheads](https://wordpress.org/support/users/knucleheads/) * (@knucleheads) * [12 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/non-default-permalink-not-working/#post-4908694) * Hello Cristian, Thanks for the reply! * I removed WP Super Cache, and installed s2Member’s QuickCache. Just because of the reputation you guys have. * I installed it, and enabled it. Yet, I think it’s not working. * I cleared all cookies for the domain. And reloaded the site. When I check the source, I can’t see the QuickCache comment after the closing . * I confired that /wp-content/cache is chmod to 755. * The only other thing I can add is: Your plugin told me it was unable to write to wp-config.php So I added the requested line right after the opening * Any idea what else I can check/try? * The server is a small VPS I “bought”. It is running freeBSD, and apache24. Obviously, I have root access. Let me know what else do you think I can try! Thanks! * [Cristián Lávaque](https://wordpress.org/support/users/anguz/) * (@anguz) * [12 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/non-default-permalink-not-working/#post-4908699) * Well, I’d first try removing the cache to see if the problem persists. * I’d probably remove everything else too and see if taking out one of those things fixes the problem. * If you haven’t yet, could you please do these?

With your help, I found out the problem. Honestly, I don’t know how I got to it… yet that s2memeber.com link sent me in the right direction. * It was that I wasn’t loading the mod_rewrite module in the apache24’s httpd.conf * I took out the comment # from the beginning of the line… saved. Restarted apache.. and now it’s working perfectly. I am going to re-enable all plugins now and keep on working at it. * Thank you! * [Cristián Lávaque](https://wordpress.org/support/users/anguz/) * (@anguz) * [12 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/non-default-permalink-not-working/#post-4908714) * That’s great!
