 * I have a variety of different permalink problems around my site, rather unhappy
   with this theme (Nostalgia) I have purchased and the author is useless:
 * [http://www.nyxdesign.com.au](http://www.nyxdesign.com.au)
 * 1) Blog Post Links
 * The biggest problem I’m having is in the Blog area. One thing I notice is that
   when I navigate to a single post the post’s name in the browser display is prepended
   with “Blog/” (after the site title and separator). I’d like to avert this, please,
   I don’t like it.
 * Additionally, it seems impossible to navigate directly to a blog post using its
   permalink. e.g. when I try to navigate to “http://nyxdesign.com.au/blog/test-
   post” it redirects to “http://nyxdesign.com.au/test-post” and the post doesn’t
   come up, it just stalls on the home page with the menu showing. This is a huge
   problem for me, I need to be able to link people directly to my blog posts as
   they will contain instructional and educational content.
 * In general, I’m just having a world of trouble with the Blog section.
 * I’ve noticed when you’re on Page 2 of the Blog pagination and you mouseover the
   link to a single post, the URL that shows is “http://nyxdesign.com.au/blog/page-
   2/blog/lorem-ipsum”. While it does navigate to the post OK, this to me just shows
   what a mess this permalink problem is in this unreliable difficult theme.
 * 2) Page Permalinks
 * For some reason my lowercase page titles are showing as title case in the browser
   display. i.e. “nyx design | About” rather than “nyx design | about”. I can’t 
   see how this is possible when all of my pages are named in lowercase.
 * Oddly though, if I refresh while on a page it does then show up in lowercase 
   as it’s supposed to (plus adds a forward slash to the end of the URL). This is
   no help though as I want it to look right in the first place when someone navigates
   to a page.
 * None of my above issues seem to be a problem in the theme’s demo you can navigate
   straight to individual posts, etc: [http://quanticalabs.com/wp_themes/nostalgia/blog/lorem-ipsum/](http://quanticalabs.com/wp_themes/nostalgia/blog/lorem-ipsum/)

 * This forum does not offer support for commercial themes.

 * If I were you, I would disable all plugins, then switch to the default theme,
   Twenty Eleven or Twenty Twelve, and reset the permalinks structure. Read up on
   permalinks here: [Using_Permalinks](http://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Permalinks)
 * Then you can start piecing things back together, if you are still committed to
   using what sounds like a very flawed theme.
 * But for further support on that particular theme, you’re going to have to go 
   to the author and/or the place you bought it from.
