 * Hey guys,
 * I’ve wrote a script to input posts into WP in bulk; but I’m stuck on what to 
   do to create the permalink? I’ve looked through the coding but still find it 
   rather confusing on what code exactly I need to execute to create the permalink.
 * Any help?
 * Thanks a lot!

 * WordPress doesn’t store the permalinks in the database at all. The permalink 
   structure stored in the database (wp_options table) is used to parse the incoming
   request and prepare a query to fetch posts that match the structure.
 * So if you’re inserting posts directly to the database, you shouldn’t need to 
   worry about permalinks.

 * Hmmm…….. I must be thinking of something else then; I’m talking about the URL
   it creates & inserts into the “posts” table in the “guid” section.
 * Thanks for the help. 🙂
