 * [Title links for single posts](http://www.meksin.com/category/news/) don’t link
   correctly. Goes to the same [wrong page](http://www.meksin.com/news/flossing-the-lot-new-haven-ct-2012/)
   every time but the title for the desired page remains correct. Having trouble
   finding the error. Is this an issue with the permalink or an issue with categories?
   I have no idea. I’m new with code so the answer might be simple and I’m just 
   not seeing it.

 * Can you post both the correct link (the link the title should link to) and your
   code for the title (including the anchor)?
 * You might want to check that you have a single.php template file in your theme,
   or else your post defaults to index.php for its theming (see [here](http://codex.wordpress.org/images/1/18/Template_Hierarchy.png)).
   Also, check that your **get_permalink()**.

 * I have a single.php template. The page of origin ([http://www.meksin.com/category/news/](http://www.meksin.com/category/news/))
   I’m having issues with is a category list/ blog setup, displaying single posts
   in chronological order. The top post displayed being “Flossing the Lot.” In single.
   php the code for the post looks like this:
 *     ```
       <!--POST TITLE-->
       				<h2 class="post-title"><a title="'<?php the_title_attribute(); ?>',  href="<?php the_permalink() ?>"><?php the_title(''); ?></a></h2>
       				<!--END POST TITLE-->
       ```
   
 * My permalinks are customized to follow this format: /%category%/%postname%/. 
   I don’t know if that matters.
 * All the title links on the page of origin link to the same page (in the body)
   but go to the correct url and have the correct title. For example the top post
   for Flossing goes to [http://www.meksin.com/news/flossing-the-lot-new-haven-ct-2012/](http://www.meksin.com/news/flossing-the-lot-new-haven-ct-2012/),
   displaying the body of a draft that has been set to private of a post that isn’t
   even categorized. But the draft is the most recent creation so I don’t know if
   there is some kind of time issue.
