   Hello,
   I've upgraded my site from 2.0 to 2.2 last night, and now the /%category%/%postname%/ permalinks which I had set are acting a bit different. Apparently they're actually acting as they should, but I'd like to put them back to how they were before upgrade.

   Before upgrading, my URLs looked like this:
   http://www.mysite.com/category-parent/postname/

   now they look like this:
   http://www.mysite.com/category-parent/sub-category/postname/

   I'd like to get rid of the sub-category, and only show the parent. Is this possible?

   Thanks!

   Actually going to this type of URL:

   http://www.mysite.com/category-parent/postname/

   works... it does give me the correct page. But calling the_permalink() in my template is what has changed. That's what now gives me the sub-category.

   Is there any way to hack the_permalink() to show only the top level category?? I can't figure it out.
