Wordpress 2.5.1 Permalink Structure Solution
Filed in Wordpress on Jul.14, 2008
For those who have been using the updated version of Wordpress which is the 2.5.1 like me, there have been issues on the Permalink Structure not working.
The structure /%category%/%postname%/ from the older versions have been working perfectly having this kind of result

The solution for the latest version will need to use /index.php/%category%/%postname%/ and since you have added the /index.php/ you will have this kind of result:
http://www.webchannell.com/index.php/category/postname/
While Wordpress haven’t found a solution yet on how to get rid of the index.php, we’ll just use the fix mentioned above for now. Happy blogging. ![]()

Great idea but the best practice to use the permalink in my opinion is like
/%postname%.html
in ur custom structure so that u get a very cool link for ur articles like
http://www.shoeseat.com/funny-humor-jokes.html
Isn’t that a neat URL with .html.
