i made a mess of some kind my website was running perfectly but i did some changes to wpconfig i cant seem to remember and the result is that if i dont use permalinks and use simple page id the whole website works and if i try to use permalinks all the individual links break but home page as well as admin panel keeps working .
It always gives 500 internal server error
Any one got any ideas what could have gone wrong .
P.S.> I have deleted .htaccess and created a new one and copied the code given by wordpress but its still not working.
my website is NewsKase
I had the same problem. My WordPress site was running perfectly until I changed my permalinks. All my individual links break but the main page as well as admin panel keeps working. When I use simple page id as permalink the whole website works.
The are several thing that can cause this problem. The following post lists some possibilities you can go through to find the root of your permalink problem.

Try the following:
Get a fresh copy of wp-config.php and enter in your DB details
(username, pw, name, table prefix).
Delete htaccess file
Regenerate permalinks (admin - settings - permalinks)
Ensure server has mod-rewrite on

I moved my live wordpress site from one hosting to another.
I changed values in my wp-config.php to point to new settings.
Entire DB is imported correctly and all files are placed correctly through FTP.
The problem is that only landing page is working fine. But all other internal links don't.
Please suggest.
500 Internal Server error.
I think it is a issue of permalink . Go to dashboard and set permalink Plain and check your site . If it works then change the permalink according to your wish .
Hope this help you
I moved my website from live to localhost to make some modifications to it and I have encountered a problem, one page will not show up: "Oops! That page can’t be found.".
I have tried the following
1. activated rewrite_module
2. deactivated each plugin to see if anyone is causing the problem
3. recopied the database and files in case of failure during the first transfer
4. read that resetting permalinks might solve the problem. Changed permalinks to default - the page now works, but when I changed back to custom the problem is still there.
This is weird because only one page does not seem to show, every other page works fine and also there is no problem on the live version.
I ran out of solutions can any one please help?
This may be caused by the permalink or .htaccess
check the url of your page if no issues on URL then
Follow this steps once:
Go to settings-> permalink-> set it as default ->Reload or refresh
Then again now Go to settings-> permalink->postname
Your .htaccess will get update with the permalink.
This could be a problem with htaccess. When using the query string urls in wordpress, no htaccess is required, but for anything else Wordpress uses mod_rewrite.
Is htaccess turned on your localhost Apache server? In httpd.conf, AllowOverride All should be turned on in your active directory.
Is Wordpress able to create new files? Insufficient permissions might prevent it from creating the htaccess file.
Finally, check that your links are pointing to the right place. Sometimes the problem is as simple as a misspelling in your link ;) Good luck.
I tried to move my beta Wordpress site to my live domain, and now everything's broken. I have no idea how to fix this. Here's what I did:
I had a site running at mydomain.com, but I wanted to rebuild it. So I downloaded a new installation of WordPress at mydomain.com/test and built a new theme.
I finished the new theme and was ready to move it to mydomain.com. I decided to leave everything in the subdomain for the move, so I followed these instructions.
It worked fine. Mydomain.com was displaying the new site.
Then, I stupidly decided that I wanted to rename the subdirectory from /test to /v2 (because I wanted a cleaner name and I wanted to leave /test open for testing rather than use it for my new site).
Everything broke.
I tried to change the subdirectory back to /test because the site was working with that, but everything is still broken. The theme doesn't seem to be loading. My site is not displaying any styles. My photos aren't displaying correctly. My plugins are gone.
Is there any way to fix this? Please tell me I didn't just lose 3 months of work...
This is my site.
The database,will have the url set to mydomain.com/test
you will need to update the db entries see below script

Sounds like you need to update your siteurl and home values in your Wordpress Database. Log in to your cPanel and go to phpMyAdmin. From there you should be able to open your WordPress MySQL Database.
Go to your wp-options table and make sure that your siteurl (option_id 1) and home (option_id 37) values are using the correct path ie http://mcography.com/test
You may also need to update your permalinks. Even though you don't have to change any options, saving the permalinks again should refresh your .htaccess file.
Few months ago, I developed two template pages on wordpress 3.1 and they were working fine. Now, I installed latest wordpress software. I created a new page with the same name and selected the template. But the link is showing a "404 Not Found" error.
My site URL goes like this: http://localhost/myBlog/about
where "about page" has to use a template. The same permalink is shown when creating the page but viewing page is showing 404 error. It's weird. May be some permalink issue?
Well assuming this is a new installation and not an upgrade, I am guessing that your permalink structure is messed up. There are a couple ways to fix this. In general, Wordpress tries to modify your .htaccess file itself.
Go to your old installation and look under Settings -> Permalinks. If it is different from your new install, then change them to be the same and save. If they are the same, then change it to something else and then change it back. This should force Wordpress to resave the settings to your .htaccess file. If it can't write to the file it should tell you.
Alternatively you could look at the .htaccess file of your old installation and copy the values there over to your new installation. Although I think letting WP do it for you is probably the safer route.
If you can access your database, You need to go to the wp-options table and change the url there. The other options there. Were you working on a local server?
I have wordpress website on server, created pages and that's working fine, but when I download wordpress files and DB on local and want to run with localhost, permalinks for pages are not working.
It seems this is an old post, but this might help others that encounter same error.
Select:
Apache –> Apache Modules –> and that will display the lists of available modules.
Now just check rewrite_module.

Hope that helps.
Sometimes when copying from one server to another, wordpress' permalinks goes a little screwy, try setting them back to default (using the admin panel) and then setting them again to your desired permalink structure (being sure to apply the changes each time).
you need to go into the database and change a few options.
Goto your phpmyadmin installation and navigate to wp-options table. Change the siteurl and home options to your localhost address.
Wordpress needs these database tries to build your permalinks. If they are wrong, then it will direct your links to incorrect locations.
You can simply fix this by doing the following:
Go to settings in your WordPress site.
click on permalinks ( You will see the URL structures of your newly configured WP site. (if it shows your original website values, go to settings-> general and set your local site URLs
Don't do any changes, just click on the Save button.
Refresh your local site and click on your page link or post.
