   I have posted about the same subject quite some time ago. It was solved, but came back after upgrading from 2.6.1 to 2.6.2.

   When I choose a category from the category widget dropdown, not the "pretty permalink" is displayed, but what looks like a default permalink and it doesn't work (the page reloads). When I "manage" "permalinks" to default and back to custom, the dropdown works for a short while only to return to the problem a little later. When I don't use the dropdown, there is no problem.

   Any ideas?

   I am having this same exact problem here: http://www.bahairights.org

   No matter what category I choose, I get this page: http://www.bahairights.org/category/

   When i tried entering it without the widget with this code:
   

   <li>
   <h2>categories</h2>
   	<form action="<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>/" method="get">
   <?php
   	$select = wp_dropdown_categories('show_option_none=Select Category&show_count=1&orderby=name&echo=0');
   	$select = preg_replace("#<select([^>]*)>#", "<select$1 onchange='return this.form.submit()'>", $select);
   	echo $select;
   ?>
   	<noscript><input type="submit" value="View" /></noscript>
   	</form>
   	</li>

   I still got the same result.

   When I change the permalinks to the default, the dropdown works. This widget works on other sites without any problems. Can anyone help?
