sjscott80Hello everyone,
A few days ago, all of the URLs to the categories on my site stopped working:
http://www.samueljscott.com/
I had experimented with different Category plug-ins (like to insert a menu in the left sidebar and remove the "/category/" in the URLs for SEO purposes. However, I didn't like the plugins, so I deactivated and then removed them. Shortly thereafter is when I think the URLs stopped working (in different ways).
Here are two examples of the ways that the category URLs are not working:
1. http://www.samueljscott.com/category/us-politics/ This Category URL is either going to the home page directly or going to a 404 page and then redirecting to the home page through a 404 plug-in
2. http://www.samueljscott.com/category/business/ This Category URL is going to an individual post in that category
All of the Category URLs are doing one of these two things. I checked permalink structure and the URL slugs of the categories, and everything is correct. So I do not know the problem. The categories are listed in the left sidebar and below the headlines of each post.
If anyone has any thoughts, I'd love to hear them -- and perhaps other people are having the same problem? That seems to be the case in this Category thread in these forums...
