The WordPress documentation recommends editing your site's <code>.htaccess</code> file in order to set-up pretty looking permalinks <ref>http://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Permalinks</ref>. However, where possible Apache advise against using a <code>.htaccess</code> file as it can impact a site's performance <ref>http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/howto/htaccess.html</ref>. To do so, update your site's config file as follows... | |||
<pre> | |||
RewriteEngine On | |||
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L] | |||
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}%{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f | |||
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}%{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d | |||
RewriteRule . /index.php [L] | |||
</pre> | |||
Add the above to the config for the site (not within a <code><Directory /></code> subsection for example). In order to stop Apache looking for an <code>.htaccess</code> file to process, ensure <code> AllowOverride </code> is disabled, for example... | |||
<pre> | |||
<Directory /> | |||
AllowOverride None | |||
</Directory> | |||
</pre> | |||

If you need to configure your WordPress install to use an SMTP server then there is no way to achieve this via the existing admin console (there are Plugins that do this though). | If you need to configure your WordPress install to use an SMTP server then there is no way to achieve this via the existing admin console (there are Plugins that do this though). | ||
