   Hi folks,

   I'm using WP 3.3.1 and tried all versions of Custom Permalinks. I use this plugins only for categories. However, I see my theme's 404 page when I try to read a post in any category.

   I use this structure on permalinks : /%category%/%postname%.html

   Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks.

   Not wishing to hijack your post but I'm having the same issue. Hopefully someone in the know will shed some light on this.

   Hey guys,

   I have a solution. Get the version 2.7.9 and replace line #161 with this SQL query:

   $sql = "SELECT $wpdb->posts.ID, $wpdb->postmeta.meta_value, $wpdb->posts.post_type FROM $wpdb->posts ".
   "LEFT JOIN $wpdb->postmeta ON ($wpdb->posts.ID = $wpdb->postmeta.post_id) WHERE ".
   " $wpdb->postmeta.meta_key = 'custom_permalink' AND ".
   " $wpdb->postmeta.meta_value != '' AND ".
   " $wpdb->posts.post_status = 'publish' AND ".
   " ( $wpdb->postmeta.meta_value = LEFT('".mysql_escape_string($request_noslash)."', LENGTH($wpdb->postmeta.meta_value)) OR ".
   " $wpdb->postmeta.meta_value = LEFT('".mysql_escape_string($request_noslash."/")."', LENGTH($wpdb->postmeta.meta_value)) ) ".
   "ORDER BY LENGTH($wpdb->postmeta.meta_value) DESC";

   this works for me.

   Hi 127,

   When you say 'version 2.7.9' do you mean WP version or custom permalinks version? Sorry if this seems like a banal question, but I'm not very accomplished in this area!

   You should use version 2.7.9 of the plugin, of course ;)

    I gave that a go but it didn't work. What I did notice though was whatever I put in the 'custom structure' box it failed to work.
