Being hosted on godaddy with a basic package ain’t the best idea in town. I’ve been trying to get permalink to work for quite some time now and finally today I managed to get it to work with a few simple entries.
Fix;

  1. Modified the php.ini file on my domain root directory
  2. Added the entries below to it
  • cgi.fix_pathinfo = 1
  • cgi.force_redirect = 0
  1. Goto WP’s Admin -> Options -> Permalinks. Choose you desired option and save.
