 * Hi all,
 * I’ve been working on this site for a while now and it’s almost ready for launch:
   
   [http://5ringsfitness.co.uk/](http://5ringsfitness.co.uk/)
 * As of now the permalinks are set to default, but I would to set them to the page
   name. Every time I do this however, I see index.php added to the url. This also
   brings back a 404 error page on some pages.
 * What is the best way to fix this? Pretty desperate now.
 * Thanks in advance
