 * Hi, i need support, really quick if possible.
    I set up a new Homepage for the“
   Blacksandstudio”
 * [http://blacksandstudio.com](http://blacksandstudio.com)
 * i created everything on my local Server (XAMPP, Windows based)(including Theme
   and Permalink Structure), then i installed WordPress 2.3 on the Server (in ./
   page/ subdirectory to avoid problem with the forum [./forum/]) and imported all
   the Posts, Categories, etc.
 * So, i tried to get my old Permalink Structure:
    /%postname%/ okay, it seems to
   work so far but if i click a “non forum” link on the page the url seems right
   but if i click i get a link like this:
 * [http://blacksandstudio.com/page/projects/page/page/page/page/page/page/page/page/page/page/page/page/page/page/page/page/page/page/page/page/](http://blacksandstudio.com/page/projects/page/page/page/page/page/page/page/page/page/page/page/page/page/page/page/page/page/page/page/page/)
 * so my question is: what the hell is wrong with this?

 * I also had a problem like this. My old permalink was date and name based ([http://domain/year/month/day/post](http://domain/year/month/day/post))
   and after I imported the exported db into a local installation I got errors and
   the data and name based option reads
 * (*) [http://domain/index.php/year/month/day/sample-post](http://domain/index.php/year/month/day/sample-post)
 * where year=2007 etc.
 * I used a custom structure to correct it. Editing the options table via [http://domain/wp-admin/options.php](http://domain/wp-admin/options.php)
   doesn’t resolve the problem.
 * I’ve no idea what’s wrong but all I want to for now is test changes on an offline
   copy, as well as having a backup.
