   i am using newest wp 2.8.2. i have installed both 'Top Level Categories' and 'Pathless Category Links', but neither work

   my url is http://www.djv2.com. right now if you go to http://www.djv2.com/music or http://www.djv2.com/events, it automatically appends /category/ to it

   if i login into my wordpress admin panel > pages > and change the link for header to just /music/ or just /events/, i get 404 error when i try to visit http://www.djv2.com/music or http://www.djv2.com/events

   any ideas? been messing around with it for about 30min no luck

   simple solution.

   First, stop bumping your thread, it's very rude to the community to do that.

   Second, deactivate the "pathless category links" plugin and it will work just fine.

    Using WordPress 2.8.4, I just pulled off what you're trying to do by going to the permalinks settings page and then for category base, just enter "." (a single period, no quotes) and then /category/ will disappear.
