Pretty Permalink Structure of wordpress not working on Godaddy host With windows hosting and IIS Server
You need to create a web.config file in the root directory of your WordPress installation (the same directory as the .htaccess file), and add the following code in web.config:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><configuration> <system.webServer> <rewrite> <rules> <rule name="wordpress" patternSyntax="Wildcard"> <match url="*"/> <conditions> <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>This should enable pretty permalinks in WordPress with URL Rewrite running on IIS.
