Every other link on the webpage comes back with a 404 error, as if they are not there.

I can see all the pages if I go into the wordpress admin section, all the html code and content is there but if I try to preview those pages they come back with the 404 error.

Basically, when you want a url that is nicely formatted like yours are ( yoursite.co.uk/blog/archive/2010)

You will need a .htaccess file to rewrite the urls to the correct paths. There should be somewhere in the backend of wordpress where is asks you the format of your urls.

You have selected the pretty urls which should show a bit of code thats been generated by wordpress for the .htaccess. I think it might explain what to do on that page but the gist of it is that you copy that code at the bottom of a page into a new file which is named .htaccess (notice the dot which makes the file hidden).

Put that file into the root of your site and you should be alright.

Anything you dont understand there just say.
 
I'm guessing that permalinks hasn't been setup correctly. Go into settings permalinks and change it to day and name. If still a no go then mod_rewrite isn't working/set up on the server...
 
aye - permalinks as well I see. Congrats it is up and running....quite speedy to. Have you installed w3 total cache? I always use that, mkae a big difference. Page Speed score is 74/100 I reckon that would increase to 85ish if you install w3 TC and the site would be smaller to serve and bandwidth decrease.

Thanks for the advice, I will check it out. A few pages need added and that ugly banner needs changed too. Apart from that I am really happy with it :)
