Hi,

I have started to use the GP theme recently.

In the default permalinks, there is a /index.php/ in the middle. If I remove it in setting->permalinks->Custom Structure, all pages except the homepage will show the 404 error.

I have tried to open the website again in incognito mode, the same error exists.

Is there any more settings to be done besides the one in setting->permalinks->Custom Structure?

Thanks and I look forward to your reply.

Have you tried simply changing the Permalink structure from Custom to Post Name ?

Hi David,

I have just tried changing the permalink structure to Post name, and the result remains 404.

When you click Save Changes in Settings > Permalinks its should rebuild the structure.
If thats not working then its generally a httaccess issues on your server - speak with your host as they should be able to help with fixing that.

Hi David,

I rent the centos virtual machine from the cloud service provider. Do you have any guidance on how I should change the structure of the htaccess file?

This article provides HTTAccess codes:
