Create an .htaccess file in your root directory ( e.g www.example.com/ )

vi .htaccess #(you may have to sudo or su)

Add the following lines in the file .htaccess file…

# Disable Directory Browsing
Options All -Indexes

# Secure access to .htaccess files
<Files .htaccess>
order allow,deny
deny from all
</Files>

Save the file and exit vi (:wq).
You may have to give full access rights to .htaccess!?

chmod 777 .htaccess #(you may have to sudo or su)

Open your favorite browser, go to your www.example.com/wp-admin section then choose

Settings -> Permalinks

and apply your custom structure…

( e.g /%year%/%monthnum%/%postname%/ )

Save Changes

IMPORTANT
Remove the full access rights from .htaccess!

chmod 644 .htaccess #(you may have to sudo or su)

You are done! Enjoy your wordpress custom permalinks in your preffered language.
