Finding the .htacess

Settings » Permalinks page and click on ‘Save Changes’ button without changing anything. WordPress will now try to generate the .htaccess file for you.

On some rare occasion, WordPress may not be able to generate the .htaccess file due to file permissions issue.

In that case, it will show you a message at the bottom of the Settings » Permalinks page, saying that the ‘.htaccess file is not writeable’.

You will need need to manually create the .htaccess file and add the required code inside it.

in wp-config.php

  define( 'WP_AUTO_UPDATE_CORE', true );
  add_filter( 'allow_dev_auto_core_updates', '__return_false' );
