# 404 When Editing Posts

 * I’m using Yinjie Soon’s [DF-Style Linked List plugin](http://github.com/yjsoon/df-style-linked-list_wordpress-plugin).
   Rather than modifying the theme I’m using, I’m using separate code to change 
   the behavior of the links on my post titles:
 *     ```
       add_filter('post_link','df_fix_permalink');
   
       function df_fix_permalink () {
         if (get_the_linked_list_link() == '') {
           return get_permalink();
         }
         else {
           return get_the_linked_list_link();
         }
       }
       ```
   
 * This works fine: for posts with a linked_list_url it changes the post title link
   to that URL. However, attempts to edit the post now end up in a 404. To edit 
   a post, I must comment out add_filter().
 * Any suggestions to fix this?

 * Based on an example [here](http://b-12.blogspot.com/2009/03/wordpress-change-title-post-to-external.html)
   I was able to solve the problem:
 *     ```
       add_filter('post_link','df_fix_permalink');
   
       function df_fix_permalink ($permalink) {
         if (get_the_linked_list_link() == '') {
           return $permalink;
         }
         return get_the_linked_list_link();
       }
       ```
