    My WP htaccess is EMPTY!!(??)

    Hi,

    I encountered a strange thing today. I was trying to modify my .htaccess file, I opened it in Notepad and was in shock to discover it contained NOTHING or at least just this:

    HTML Code:
    # BEGIN WordPress
    
    # END WordPress
    .

    If you are wondering if I opened the right htaccess file, i will tell you yes because it is in the same directory with my index file for wordpress. and I installed the Blog in the ROOT directory itself. The site, as I said works just fine, but how can I make changes to the htaccess when there is nothing? How can I remake a new Htaccess based on the specifications of my site.

    P.S. I made a copy of an old .htaccess (before upgrade) but I am afraid to use it since I don't really know if it will destroy anything...any suggestion, please?
    Merci beaucoup...

      Thanks Karen,

      You mean, I can write things inside the "empty" htacess file? (between the #Begin WP and #End WP)? or are you referring to the old file I saved?

        No.. write things AFTER the #end wp

        Like your old htacess entries.
