Pretty URLs being naughty. . .
Permalink
Hello all, and thanks in advance for any help anyone can give me on this.
I've enable Pretty URLs, and I kinda have it working but it's not working.
My host is Bluehost, and after searching the forums for help getting Pretty URLs working specifically on Bluehost, I've came up empty handed due to the few posts that said they got it working not detailing how they got it to work on Bluehost.
That being said, I manually installed c5, I didn't use Bluehost's auto-installer b/c in the past, I tried it w/ Joomla and it took down my website. . .twice! Fortunately that was a bit of serendipity, b/c I found c5 shortly after that, but I don't trust the auto installer for good reason—but maybe that's the issue, not sure.
Anyways, I've enabled Pretty URLs, and have adjusted my .htaccess file to the following:

Now, that does give me a Pretty URL like this:
http://www.somesite.com/about/testing1...
So in a sense it's working. But that page is not my testing1 page. Any links I click in my navigation all go to the same page, the c5 default homepage w/ the movie, etc. I haven't built out the navigation, though it is auto-nav based. So currently, other than my test1 page, all the other pages in the nav are c5 defaults, such as "My 1st Blog Entry" etc.
But when you click any of the links, the URL changes to the correct thing, but it's always showing the same page.
Someone please help!
Is the problem currently w/ Bluehost and the .htaccess file or is it something in my auto-nav that needs fixing.
Any insite would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance. c5 4ever!
