Support » Installing WordPress » After 2.6 upgrade, permalinks or similar problem

  • I just upgraded from 2.0.11 to 2.6.

    My website is http://www.portigal.com and my blog is http://www.portigal.com/blog

    I think my problem is with the permalinks — http://www.portigal.com/blog (which used to show the current posts) now redirects (in IE and FF) to an older post that has “blog” in the beginning of its URL: http://www.portigal.com/blogflickr-project-for-class/

    When I opened up the Permalinks tab in the dashboard (after the new install) the custom structure tab was ticked, with the text “%category%/%postname%/” – I changed that to “/%postname%/” as that’s how I had my entries listed previously.

    I have nothing entered for category base or tag base.

    Here’s part of my .htaccess

    # BEGIN WordPress
    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /
    RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} .
    RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://(www\\.)?portigal\\.com [NC]
    RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://(www\\.)?feedburner\\.com [NC]
    RewriteRule \\.(gif|jpe?g)$ - [NC,F]
    RewriteRule ^blog/tag/(.+)$ /blog/index.php?tag=$1 [QSA,L]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
    </IfModule>
    # END WordPress

    I can still pull up previous months by a link such as http://www.portigal.com/2008/08/ but obviously I want portigal.com/blog to work as it did before.

    Thanks for any help; I’m happy to provide more info to clarify whatever I’ve left out.
