SEF urls not working on GoDaddy hosted website

Posted by ForestGump  Published in Joomla

After trying several thing I finally found the one that worked for me.  You need to edit the .htaccess file. For Search Engine Friendly (SEF) URLs to work in Joomla, you will need to change the htaccess.txt file to .htaccess if you have not already then turn on the RewriteBase option. Note if you are on a mac edit the file before you change it to .htaccess as the (.) will make it invisible on your system. In the file itself, you will find a line that reads #RewriteBase /  you need to change to RewriteBase /  remove the pound (#) sign. This is un-commenting the line thus making it active. Good luck.

Hope this helps someone
