   Hi,

   I am using WP 1.5 and have a line redirecting an old static page (/somedir/myfile.html) to a permalink type address (www.mysite/newvirtualdir/slugname) but I get a strange URL returned - something link www.mysite/newvirtualdir/slugname?category_name=somedir/myfile.html=myfile.html&page=

   I am guessing this is due to the permalink rules. How do I fix this?

   Can you provide the details of your redirect? (ie snippet from your .htaccess or something?)

   Sure - It's

   Redirect /Management/HRM/British_HRM.html /management/current-hrm

   The second part is based on a permalink.

   Try this one:
   <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
   RewriteEngine On
   RewriteBase /
   RewriteRule ^management/hrm/british_hrm\.html$ /management/current-hrm [L,R=301]
   </IfModule>
