    I have a problem with my urls which has always been there. There is a '#' before my category names. For example http://www.example.com/#/categoryname/

    If anyone could help me with this issue I would be very grateful.

    Have you looked in wp-admin->Settings->Permalinks-- down toward the bottom under 'Optional' and 'Category Base'?

    Yes, that's blank.

    I've also noticed whilst browsing through the site that it will often do this sort of thing: http://www.example.com/category/categoryname/#/categoryname/postname/

    That's interesting.

    What is in your .htaccess?

    Does this happen if you disable all plugins and use the default theme? If not, your theme or a plugin is causing this so start re-enabling things one by one until you find the problem.

    # BEGIN WordPress
    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
    </IfModule>
    
    # END WordPress

    I will try disabling plugins and the theme now and see if it's any of them.

    It's the theme. http://wordpress.org/extend/themes/smells-like-facebook
    That's the one i'm using.

    There is an attempted fix for it here: http://success.grownupgeek.com/index.php/2009/07/31/fix-smells-like-facebook-theme-url/

    I'm going to see if this will fix it. Thanks for your help :)
