The default permalink will set it to mydomain.com/amazon-com-coupons/ Is there anyway to make it set it as mydomain.com/amazon.com-coupons/ ?? I tried using the advanced permalinks plugin, and it did work, however when I clicked on the categories in the sidebar I get a page not found error. Any help? Thanks!!!!! grosbouff on "Build custom permalinks tags" http://wordpress.org/support/topic/335690#post-1294034 Thu, 26 Nov 2009 00:27:35 +0000 grosbouff 1294034@http://wordpress.org/support/ Hi, is it possible to build custom permalink tags and use them ? Example : Currently I have the current permalink for my single post : .../%year%/%monthnum%/%category%/%postname%/ giving .../2009/11/dogs/wondeful-shihuahua/ Hi would like to ADD A CUSTOM PERMALINK TAG defined with a function. Let's say the tag name would be "action" The permalink would be .../%year%/%monthnum%/%action%/%category%/%postname%/ And the %action% value would be build with a function that checks something. It that case, I would like action to be "sell" if the single post contains the "sell" tag, and the action to be "buy" if the single posts contains the "buy" tag. Else, nothing. Something like function get_permalink_action_tag(): global $post: $post_tags = wp_get_post_tags($post->ID); if ($post_tags) { foreach($post_tags as $tag) { if (($tag=='sell') || ($tag=='buy')) return $tag; } } Is it possible ?

Folowing the directions, I have installed URL Rewrite Module 1.1 (using Microsoft Web Platform Installer). However... <blockquote>Once installed, open the web.config file in the WordPress folder and add the following rule to the system.webServer element . . . </blockquote> There is NO web.config file to edit anywhere in my computer.

Here was the proposed solution: <blockquote> There are a number of ways to accomplish your request, but try this out and see if it fits your needs: In js/smcf.js, change: <pre><code>data: $('#smcf-container form').serialize() + '&action=send',</code></pre> To: <pre><code>data: $('#smcf-container form').serialize() + '&action=send&permalink=' + encodeURIComponent(location.href),</code></pre> Then in smcf_data.php, below: <pre><code>if (get_option("smcf_ua")) { $message .= "\n\nUSER AGENT: " . $_SERVER["HTTP_USER_AGENT"]; }</code></pre> Add: <pre><code>if (isset($_POST["permalink"])) { $message .= "\n\nPERMALINK: " . isset($_POST["permalink"]); }</code></pre> </blockquote> chadrockman on ".htaccess and permalink: Internal server error after checking everything" http://wordpress.org/support/topic/237668#post-1291789 Tue, 24 Nov 2009 03:22:07 +0000 chadrockman 1291789@http://wordpress.org/support/ I was having the same exact trouble.

But if you want to mix names I don't think that will be very smart. For instance what happens when an author makes a post with the same name as another author? That's bad structuring ( and with that comes bad sites ). Maybe have a main page -> list all authors -> author.php with profile and author posts underneath?

I've run into a problem. We had a blog located at... say.. <a href="http://www.ourblog.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.ourblog.com</a> Now we've moved it to a friend's hosting service and he had the space he offered named blog.nonsense.com We set up the blog and redirected <a href="http://www.ourblog.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.ourblog.com</a> so it points to blog.nonsense.com. The problem is that all the internal links in the blog now read blog.nonsense.com/etc... (silly mistake, I know) Is there a way to change all links so that they print the original domain URL (in this case <a href="http://www.ourblog.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.ourblog.com</a>)?

I am going to use author.php and the author functions, as you said. But I don't know how to change my permalink structure to work like it: <a href="http://www.blog.com/test" rel="nofollow">http://www.blog.com/test</a> 1 - 'test' is a author name, then get author.php and show the profile 2 - 'test' isn't a author name, 'test' is a post slug, then get the single.php and show the post 3 - 'test' is neither one, get a 404 page basszje on "Permalink without /author/" http://wordpress.org/support/topic/333449#post-1286791 Thu, 19 Nov 2009 13:24:34 +0000 basszje 1286791@http://wordpress.org/support/ I'm not sure what you want exactly. - You can reach posts from author via the permalink structure. - You can use <a href="http://codex.wordpress.org/Author_Templates">author templates</a> - Check the <a href="http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference">function reference</a> ( maybe checking for <a href="http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/username_exists">user exists</a>? ) carlla on "Permalink without /author/" http://wordpress.org/support/topic/333449#post-1286786 Thu, 19 Nov 2009 13:16:10 +0000 carlla 1286786@http://wordpress.org/support/ I read about <a href="http://codex.wordpress.org/Query_Overview">query overview</a> and <a href="http://codex.wordpress.org/Custom_Queries">custom queries</a>.

I can't use %author% in admin permalink settings, can I? It is not working now.

I was called away right after I posted my question, or I'd have been right back with you then. "Work" means that once I have everything set on my computer (localhost) that I can upload the files to my web site and everything works there, too. :-) Then I can play / tweak / etc. on my computer to make things better as I learn more about WordPress, then uplaod any changes to the web site and it STILL works! ;-) SO... What I'm getting from reading the two links above is: 1 - I should make sure that my web hosting site is not Windows-based ** OR ** Install Windows URL Rewrite Module on my web site ** AND ** 2 - I should install Windows URL Rewrite Module on MY computer (localhost) so that "Pretty" permalinks will work ** OR ** I should not worry about it because when I upload the pages / categories / etc. they will all get the "Pretty" permalink URL as long as I enable it during the initial WordPress installation on my web host site? whooami on ""pretty" permalinks" http://wordpress.org/support/topic/333099#post-1285632 Wed, 18 Nov 2009 14:50:10 +0000 whooami 1285632@http://wordpress.org/support/ assuming you are using IIS on your local machine, you need to read this: <a href="http://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Permalinks#Permalinks_without_mod_rewrite" rel="nofollow">http://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Permalinks#Permalinks_without_mod_rewrite</a> <blockquote> When I get ready to post the WordPress version of my web site, I'd like to have the "Pretty" permalinks (month/day/year/sample-post).
