Hello,
I love the product. It does exactly what is should do and more. But I cannot get the permalinks to work and produce clean URL’s
When I go to the WordPress Permalink-setting and change the structure to my own custom structure,http://domain.com/%postname% it can show the connctions in a category but when you click for the details for 1 connection it produces a 404.
Also the “View all” doesn’t work anymore.
Please advise.

Can you share a link to the page with the issue?

Hey STeven,
Sure but as it is now it crashes.
ex. http://www.belgianfashion.com/index.php/designers_labels/women/ works but a detail-page ex.http://www.belgianfashion.com/index.php/designers_labels/women/name/a-f-vandevorst/ doesn’t

re: Sure but as it is now it crashes.

Hmmm, it is loading for me and looks fine.

re: premalinks

The issue is that you have index.php in your permalinks. Connections is not compatible with that. Go to the WordPress Permalinks settings pages and remove it. Besides being compatible wit Connections, your permalinks will be more SEO friendly.

OK Steven,
Now I removed the /index.php bit from the custom-permalink
so my custom url is http://www.belgianfashion.com/%postname%/
This gives more problems.
The .htaccess file states:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index.php$ – [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
What is wrong ?

Sorry, but webserver config is not exactly my expertise. Perhaps asking your web host will help?

Here’s a Google search on the topic showing the troubles and solutions with using WordPress with ISS7.

https://www.google.com/search?q=iis+7.5+wordpress+permalinks

And here’s a link from that search that seems like it might be very helpful:
