404 Errors after clicking Wordpress links

This is a common issue when a blogs rewrite rules have been altered. You will notice this when you are clicking links throughout the blog, and you get a '404' error.

The fix is as follows:
Add this to the .htaccess file.

# BEGIN WordPress 
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c> 
RewriteEngine On 
RewriteBase / 
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f 
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d 
RewriteRule . /index.php [L] 
</IfModule> 

# END WordPress
