    hi..

    i want to create logical and correct information architecture using categories and subcategories, filing each post under one and only one category.. I set the permalinks to /%category%/%postname%/ so that each post is like a page within a section in a website... thus, since urls are elements or interface, i need /%category%/ point to category without the category prefix... i have removed that prefix by changing the code of the rewrite.php file to this $this->category_structure = $this->front; and everything seems fine...

    YET, if there is a subcategory, like site.com/parentcat/subcat/ the site says 404.. any ideas? thanks

    Don't remove the word "category" (or whatever else you set for it in the Permalinks setting oage). There is a reason why it is there...
    (it has been discussed a zillion times, so I will not restart that useless discussion)
