Wordpress
Hi
Resently I have turned my nas box into a web server. I have a readynas 202 running os6.
I have installed the wordpress app but I have no intentions of using the app as I have clients using wordpress. I have installed wordpress manualy and all seams to be working fine except for the Permalink Settings. By default it keeps using /index.php/%year%/%monthnum%/%day%/%postname%/ in the custom permalink. I don't want to use the /index.php, I want this to redirect to /%postname%/. I have added a .htaccess file to the root of the wp folder where the config file is (not the root of the readynas) to redirect the index.php page, it returns a "page not found"
Even when I've installed the wp app same, problem happens. I can still see the home page and still access the wp-admin
researching things like this https://wordpress.org/support/topic/pretty-permalink-issue-cannot-get-rid-of-indexphp
I have no issue on the live server just the local one my nas box, what do I need to do? I never had this issue with mamp
After knowing nothing of Terminal or how to access the etc folder, modify files in Terminal, researching apache and the port 80 issue I was having, reading about is mod_rewrights and is it installed.
After all this headache it was as simple as turn ENABLE HTTP OFF!!!! in the http setting in the admin page. I would like to kick myself! Over the weeks of problems I was having, they always turn out to be so simple
Thanks to the people who helped as you put me on the right paths to achieve

what I want to be using is "Pretty" permalinks. It looks like the Apache server needs the mod_rewrite module installed how do I add this?
