  • Try setting your post permalinks to /%post_id%/%postname%/ and leave the category base blank. It still won’t be your ideal structure but I think it’s the closest you’ll get without potentially impacting on performance.

    Thanks esmi (I seem to see a lot of you). This seems like a slightly better option then I have now yet I know what I am seeking is possible (I have seen it on other blogs). You seem to know quite a bit about wordpress. Any recommended reading for the someone like me, who has a basic understanding but needs to fill in the holes?

    Alas, your suggestion didn’t work. When I used post-id/postname it breaks the category links. I can no longer access my portfolio category posts by visiting http://www.colindunn.com/portfolio ….. So frustrating!

    Aha! Found a plugin for anyone who is interested. “WP No Category Base” does the trick!
