This WordPress blog is installed on an IIS 7.0 webserver. In order to use nice permalinks without index.php in it (such as example.com/2010/01/01/test), a rewrite engine has to be used. Since there is no mod_rewrite for IIS, my web hoster installed Microsoft’s URL Rewrite Module. On this page I found the rules to add in the web.config file.
My web.config is now as follows:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <configuration> <system.webServer> <rewrite> <rules> <rule name="Main Rule" stopProcessing="true"> <match url=".*" /> <conditions logicalGrouping="MatchAll"> <add input="{REQUEST_FILENAME}" matchType="IsFile" negate="true" /> <add input="{REQUEST_FILENAME}" matchType="IsDirectory" negate="true" /> </conditions> <action type="Rewrite" url="index.php" /> </rule> </rules> </rewrite> </system.webServer> </configuration>
