Yup, I now changed the chmod value of the htaccess file all the way to 777
but still did not work.
whenever I change the permalink structure, I get a 404 error when visiting the post directly
frustrating
i really dont know.
the tech that I chatted with at my host said that he created a new .htaccess file but still did not help.
Can I change the permissions from within wordpress or do I have to go the ftp server?
That would be a hassle because this problem is occuring on multiple blogs
