    I’m using the Clean Archives plugin (which I love) but I’m having a little trouble with getting it to work properly. Got it installed, shows the archives on my archive page, all of that–but when you actually click on an archived entry it just takes you back to the archives page. Clicking on the comments does the same thing (takes you to archives page.) I’m SURE it’s something I did, but as to what I have no idea. (Also, I tried it out in different themes and I had the same bugs with each theme. Current theme is a tweaked Lucid.)

    Help–anyone? I’m sure it’s a pretty elementary problem, but I’m clueless.

    Hm… it looks like you have given the “archives” page a slug of “archives”

    The problem with that is that your permalink structure is: /archives/%postid%

    Because you have an “archives” page, it sees /archives/2 as “the second page of archives.” It’s sort of like your “archives” page sits on top of your mod_rewrite rules and ‘eats’ anything coming in that starts with /archives/

    You’ll have to choose a different format for your permalinks (one that doesn’t start with “archives”) or rename the post slug for your archives page.
