Enabling Permalinks in WordPress

This walkthrough will guide you through how to enable “Pretty Permalinks” for blog posts in the WordPress blog engine installed on IIS 7.0. Typically, without URL rewriting functionality on a Web server, WordPress users have to use “Almost Pretty” URLs (for example, http://contoso.com/index.php/yyyy/mm/dd/post-name/). This was the primary option for users who chose to host WordPress on IIS. Now, with the URL rewrite module available, you can have “Pretty Permalinks” (for example, http://example.com/year/month/day/post-name/) for WordPress blogs hosted on IIS 7.0.
