 * Hello,
 * My archiving is not working. I have changed the archiving to do weekly and now
   when I click on the week dates to display that weeks articles, I get “no posts
   matched your criteria”.
 * can someone point me to right direction where to look?
 * thank you.

 * Try updating your permalink structure via [Administration](http://codex.wordpress.org/Administration_Panels)

 * thanks for the info. I did play around with the 4 options that I have in the 
   permalink settings but no success.
 * Little more info:
    In the permalinks i’m using: `/index.php/archives/%post_id%`
   When I click on the weekly dates link I get `?m=2009&w=10`
 * since, originally WP or the theme that i’m using, is set to month, I’m thinking
   it is trying to pass month and then the post ID? than what is that 2009, year?
 * assistance appreciated greatly.

 * I have no problem using the default permalinks, with the WordPress Default theme,
   and no plugins installed.
 * Using `<?php wp_get_archives('type=weekly'); ?>` in wp-content/themes/default/
   sidebar.php

 * Still having the issue. When I change the sidebar widget to display weekly instead
   of monthly, `<?php wp_get_archives('type=weekly');`, the archiving page would
   not work. I get “no posts matched your criteria” when link is clicked from the
   sidebar.
 * I have narrow down to the link that gets associated with sidebar archive widget.
   When clicked it is passing `?m=2009$w10` From what I was able to understand is
   that it is trying to pass info by year and by week number, hence w10 meaning 
   week 10.
 * I also tried different options in permalink as Michael has suggested, that didn’t
   work either.
 * any other options?
