   hello!

   I'm thinking to change my blog Permalink from:
   /%category%/%postname%.html

   to

   /%postname%.html

   Is anyone can help me with .htaccess code in the way that also the "old" links work?
   Thanks

   WordPress permalinks are canonical, so they'll redirect on their own whenever you change them.

   Just out of curiosity, why add the .html?

   and with .html in the end, is not working :S

   Just remove it from your permalink settings. Use /%postname%/ instead.
