Menu Links Not Showing Up as Friendly URLs

Is it a Wayfinder issue? Or a .htaccess issue? Or a System setting issue?

<base href="[[!++site_url]]" />

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /modx/
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?q=$1 [L,QSA]

<base href="[[!++site_url]]" />

Make sure you have this code in the head tag of your page:

<base href="[[!++site_url]]" />

Then make sure you have the correct "RewriteBase" setting on .htaccess:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /modx/
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?q=$1 [L,QSA]

Finally, check that the system settings are configured properly (see step 2).

First let me say thanks for such a detailed response.

1. Does this code

<base href="[[!++site_url]]" />

tell the system to NOT cache the site_url ... correct?

If your site is using friendly URLs, then it is recommended to add following line in the head sections of your template ....(code here) .....This will ensure that snippets and modules that reference $base_path behave correctly. Also, adding the base href will help in process of migration of site from one host to another, as the setting can be changed easily and it ensures that relative URLs keep working.

2. How many .htaccess files do I need. Do I need one at the /public_html level and one at the /public_html/modx level (for the Friendly URLS)?
