14,268 PointsI have problem with my website after uploading it to my hosting company
I followed every step from the cleaning url tutorials, and using htaccess i was able to sort out my blog page and blog-detail page... it all works just fine on my localhost but as soon as i uploaded it to the server the blog page is forbidden. i really don't know what to do, and its frustrating.
Any help
