Bug or feature in Options - Permalinks page? (1 post)

    Hi I am new to WordPress but I am impressed already :-)
    Here is one little annoying thing I've found in the WP admin:

    1. Select Common Options > "Default"
    2. Enter "/foo" under Optional > Category base or tag base
    3. Go to a page on your site where you have a menu.
    Now none of the links to cetegories or pages have links with /foo/ .

    I installed the AskApache RewriteRules Viewer 2.5 and it says:

    > Not using permalinks
    > Writable .htaccess file found
    > mod_rewrite found
    > Not using pathinfo style index permalinks
    > Not using mod_rewrite permalinks

    If this is a bug it sould be corrected. If it's a feature, I suggest that some info text is added on the "default" option and/or Optional. It would also be nice if the fields became "locked" or greyed out. Then this would be more easy to understand.
