    Hi,
    I’m new to blogging. Somehow when I logged back in to my account at http://www.BillMaass.com, my Archive calendar and post title links don’t work.
    I’m not that swift to know what to do or what happened. Is it in my plug ins? I also rearranged my right column for my tag posts. Somewhere I got lost…
    Is there someone that can help me?

    Thanks, MrBill

    At Settings/Permalinks in your admin panel, what do you have for “Common settings”, “Category base”, and “Tag base”?

    macmanx-
    Common Settings is a “custom structure” a free widget I added.
    Category Base and Tag Base are empty.

    And what is your custom structure?

    That’s not an approved structure tag. You’ll have to pick one or more from the list:

    All I did was copy the link under custom structure, I don’t know if it’s an approved tag or not. I will eliminate it, if you say so. Is this the problem of the other title links and archive links not working?

    Yes, that’s the problem. Try one of the common structures. For performance and SEO purposes, I recommend “Month and name”.

    I followed your http://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Permalinks#Structure_Tags
    link. I’m now more confused than ever. I’m just trying to to create a blog for affiliate marketers. I guess simplicity is beyond this analog marketer’s mind. Thanks for your time and concern, it seems to be beyond me. I’m better off with copy and paste.

    Just pick one of the preset permalink structures on the Settings/Permalinks page.

    Thank you, Thank you, All I had to do is follow instructions.
    Problem was solved with the last suggestion:
    “Select Month and Name” in Permalinks. Sorry for being so thick-headed, it has to do with my analog upbringing.
    Thanks again,
    MrBill
