> thanks, > md You probably need an .htaccess file -- that's probably the problem. Mine is in the root directory of my wiki -- the same directory as the files pmwiki.php and index.php -- and it contains just this: RewriteEngine on RewriteRule ^([A-Z].*) /index.php?n=$1 [L,qsappend] RewriteRule ^$ /index.php [L,qsappend] Note that .htaccess is considered a hidden file on many systems. You may need to make sure your ftp/ssh/other file-system-viewer software will allow you to see it -- this is also the usual reason the .htaccess file doesn't get copied with the other files to a new installation in the first place. Finally, please copy the users' list (and don't top-post) if you need more help.
