   Hello there

   I have been tearing my hair out for ages over a permalink structure problem which I cannot seem to get the right settings for. I was wondering if someone could help and outline the settings I need achieve the following consistent structure:

   Home page: /about/blog

   Home page (paged): /about/blog/page/2

   Post: /about/blog/category-title/post-title

   Category: /about/blog/category/category-title

   Tag: /about/blog/tag/tag-title

   Archive: /about/blog/year/month

   If anyone can help then if you would be so kind as to outline the settings I need for: wordpress URL, blog URL, permalink structure, tag base, category base, .htaccess then that would be great

   So far the closest I have got is by using /about/blog in the permalinks which gets what I'm after but causes about/blog/page/2 to break.

   I have also used other settings to get everything as I would like apart from the archives which are still located in the root i.e. /2009/06 not /about/blog/2009/06

   Is what I'm aiming for even possible?

   Thanks a lot
   Matt

   Hmmm, have found this post: http://www.weberz.com/blog/2009/06/wordpress-cms-blog which explains why.

   Think I'll have to go with the archives not consistent with the other permalinks as opposed to starting every post permalink with a number.

   Here http://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Permalinks#Structure_Tags it also says you should not start your permalinks with category, post name or tag.
