   Hi all,

   I want to make my permalinks as short as possible - I'm going to be handing them out on business cards and the easier they are to type, the more hits I'll get.

   Right now, I'm using Custom Structure with only /%post_id%/.

   This means that I can give people links to website.com/39 and they'll find the right post.

   Are there any disadvantages to doing this? I'm aware that using only post-name or category can be problematic (load times), but are there any problems using only /%post_id%/?

   Thanks!

   no problems
   also, now days most servers easily handle
   /%postname%/

   Thanks for much replying - I'll go ahead and use post_id for my site now.

   Thanks again!
