Hi,
When updating Permalink, at the bottom it says:-
If your .htaccess file were writable, we could do this automatically, but it isn’t so these are the mod_rewrite rules you should have in your .htaccess file. Click in the field and press CTRL + a to select all.
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index.php$ – [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f

Should I select all?
I accessed my .htaccess yet when I rightclick, my options are different to yours, I do not have CHMOD.

Please advise ASAP,
Thanks
Glenn

Hi Glenn

Those permissions are made in either the file manager inside cPanel, or in your FTP program. You will highlight the file and select permissions from the menu.

You want the permissions to be read+write for all (666),

Thanks Jim, I am with Hostgator, and was set at 644, so updated to 666 which automatically tick a few more boxes
The videos in ABP sometimes differ or give more info than written stuff, so found my answers in the video.
