In an attempt to make my WordPress URLs more search engine friendly I changed my WP permalinks structure from the default to the, more SEO friendly, /%postname%/.
Even though this practice seems to work for most WP blogs it did not for me!
Actually after saving the new permalinks structure in my admin panel I completely lost access to both, the admin interface and blog creating an endless redirect loop.

Murkx!!!

I got lucky though after reading through the help forum at WP.org somebody suggested to edit the .htaccess file to the following:


# BEGIN WordPress

# END WordPress


Hopefully this fix will be helpful to somebody else too!
