# calendar permalink broken?

 * It seems to me that generation of calendar permalinks are broken in 1.2 release.
   🙁
    Here are my permalink settings: /archives/%year%/%monthnum%/%day%/%hour%-%
   minute%-%second%/%post_id%/ And this is the code the wordpress generated for 
   me: RewriteEngine On RewriteBase /blog/ RewriteRule ^archives/category/(.*)/(
   feed|rdf|rss|rss2|atom)/?$ /blog/wp-feed.php?category_name=$1&feed=$2 [QSA] RewriteRule
   ^archives/category/?(.*) /blog/index.php?category_name=$1 [QSA] RewriteRule ^
   archives/author/(.*)/(feed|rdf|rss|rss2|atom)/?$ /blog/wp-feed.php?author_name
   =$1&feed=$2 [QSA] RewriteRule ^archives/author/?(.*) /blog/index.php?author_name
   =$1 [QSA] RewriteRule ^archives/([0-9]{4})?/?([0-9]{1,2})?/?([0-9]{1,2})?/?([
   0-9]{1,2})?-([0-9]{1,2})?-([0-9]{1,2})?/?([0-9]+)?/?([0-9]+)?/?$ /blog/index.
   php?year=$1&monthnum=$2&day=$3&hour=$4&minute=$5&second=$6&p=$7&page=$8 [QSA]
   RewriteRule ^archives/([0-9]{4})/([0-9]{1,2})/([0-9]{1,2})/([0-9]{1,2})?-([0-
   9]{1,2})?-([0-9]{1,2})/([0-9]+)/(feed|rdf|rss|rss2|atom)/?$ /blog/wp-feed.php?
   year=$1&monthnum=$2&day=$3&hour=$4&minute=$5&second=$6&p=$7&feed=$8 [QSA] RewriteRule
   ^archives/([0-9]{4})/([0-9]{1,2})/([0-9]{1,2})/([0-9]{1,2})?-([0-9]{1,2})?-([
   0-9]{1,2})/([0-9]+)/trackback/?$ /blog/wp-trackback.php?year=$1&monthnum=$2&day
   =$3&hour=$4&minute=$5&second=$6&p=$7 [QSA] RewriteRule ^feed/?([_0-9a-z-]+)?/?
   $ /blog/wp-feed.php?feed=$1 [QSA] RewriteRule ^comments/feed/?([_0-9a-z-]+)?/?
   $ /blog/wp-feed.php?feed=$1&withcomments=1 [QSA] evrything works fine with it
   except of the calendal links like [http://aim.pp.ru/blog/archives/2004/05/24/](http://aim.pp.ru/blog/archives/2004/05/24/)
   They give the “404 not found” error. Can someone advise me how to fix this problem?
   You can see the problem by yourself pointing your brouther to [http://aim.pp.ru/blog/](http://aim.pp.ru/blog/)–
   it’s in russian but I suppose it doesn’t matter in this case. 😉

 * I can’t use the default permalink structure because I’m using russian in my post
   topics — non ASCII symbols currently not allowed in URLs :(((
    And the solution
   descriped there doesn’t work for me too.

 * Currently I find the solution – I removed the %hour%-%minute%-%second% from my
   permalink structure and now it works.
    I suppose this could help to find the 
   solution to fix this bug. No my settings are: /archives/%year%/%monthnum%/%day%/%
   post_id%/ and the rules generated: RewriteEngine On RewriteBase /blog/ RewriteRule
   ^archives/category/(.*)/(feed|rdf|rss|rss2|atom)/?$ /blog/wp-feed.php?category_name
   =$1&feed=$2 [QSA] RewriteRule ^archives/category/?(.*) /blog/index.php?category_name
   =$1 [QSA] RewriteRule ^archives/author/(.*)/(feed|rdf|rss|rss2|atom)/?$ /blog/
   wp-feed.php?author_name=$1&feed=$2 [QSA] RewriteRule ^archives/author/?(.*) /
   blog/index.php?author_name=$1 [QSA] RewriteRule ^archives/([0-9]{4})?/?([0-9]{
   1,2})?/?([0-9]{1,2})?/?([0-9]+)?/?([0-9]+)?/?$ /blog/index.php?year=$1&monthnum
   =$2&day=$3&p=$4&page=$5 [QSA] RewriteRule ^archives/([0-9]{4})/([0-9]{1,2})/([
   0-9]{1,2})/([0-9]+)/(feed|rdf|rss|rss2|atom)/?$ /blog/wp-feed.php?year=$1&monthnum
   =$2&day=$3&p=$4&feed=$5 [QSA] RewriteRule ^archives/([0-9]{4})/([0-9]{1,2})/([
   0-9]{1,2})/([0-9]+)/trackback/?$ /blog/wp-trackback.php?year=$1&monthnum=$2&day
   =$3&p=$4 [QSA] RewriteRule ^feed/?([_0-9a-z-]+)?/?$ /blog/wp-feed.php?feed=$1[
   QSA] RewriteRule ^comments/feed/?([_0-9a-z-]+)?/?$ /blog/wp-feed.php?feed=$1&

 * Putting static strings and characters into post permalinks will break the calendar
   links. By static strings I mean anything that is not a %keyword% or a forward
   slash. The RewriteRule generated by WordPress will break for calendar links if
   there are static strings present. It is possible to change the RewriteRule by
   hand to get it working. I’m working on a fix for the next release.
