Local wordpress install only shows home page, all other pages Not Found

Question

I am working on a local install of a live Wordpress site, all links from the main page show Not Found errors. all .htaccess files are all present.

The problem is that every page except for the home page is showing a Not Found error, I can't find any problems with permissions or anything else that would cause it to not work.

Is there anything that I can try that I might be overlooking? I apologize for the vague questions but I am having trouble figuring out where to start.

Answer 1

To solve the local Wordpress install only shows a home page, all other pages Not Found error there are many ways some of the important ways are as follows:-

The first thing you can do is go into Settings >> Permalinks >> and click "save changes" without changing anything.

Are you interested in learning Angularjs from scratch! Have a look at this interesting video on Angularjs provided by Intellipaat:

If the above step will give you .htaccess file permission issue, then you need to set privilege of your ROOT folder (where your wp-content folder lies) to read and write.

After setting the privilege of your ROOT folder again go and follow the same step I am mentioning below:-

Settings >> Permalinks >> and click "save changes" without changing anything.

Another thing you can enable rewrite_module. If you are on windows wamp then follow these click on wamp -> Apache ->Apache Module -> check rewrite_module.

Any of these two solutions will be helpful.
