 * hey,
    after i updated my permalinks to %category%/%tag%/%postname% i can’t open
   posts, because it shows like %tag% in links, not as actual tag. Not all my posts
   have tags, but i’m still fixing that, as i moved all my posts from blogger to
   wordpress.
 * An example: [http://lyrics2bg.com/metalcore/caliban/%tag%/caliban-i-rape-myself](http://lyrics2bg.com/metalcore/caliban/%tag%/caliban-i-rape-myself)
   shows bad request as actually there isn’t a folder called %tag% 😉 but if I replace%
   tag% in the address bar with its actual Tag “The Undying Darkness (2006)” it 
   redirects me again to the upper address. How to fix that so that my permalinks
   looks like %category%/%tag%/%postname%
 * thanks in advance 😉

 * yeah, i’ve been through this couple of times and still i can’t figure it out…
 *     ```
       %tag%
           A sanitized version of the tag name (tag slug field on New/Edit Tag panel).
       ```
   
 * i copy-paste it and still it is displayed as “%tag%”
