   My permalink structure because of legacy content is set to /news/%post_id%/%postname%/

   My problem lies in the '/news/' landing page that should display recent posts. What do I have to do to create this landing page that lists/displays all the posts in the database with paging etc...?

   Thanks

   You may or may not be able to have a Page there. If you can't, just use .htaccess to redirect elsewhere.

   Can I mask the url this way? From a bot perspective it has to be /news/

   I remember now -- I used to have all my URLs be site.com/archives/2009/... and used mod_rewrite to make a /post-archives/ page show up there. If you have a page with the actual stub, it'll break things.

   So in short, only way to do it is via mod_rewrite.
