 * Hi,
 * I’ve read a couple of other posts about this, but no-one seems to have had the
   same problem.
    Here’s the story. In order to make my one category appear in the
   navigation amongst the page list, I have created a page called News and added
   a re-direct in the custom field. This works fine, and when you link the link,
   it shows the posts in the News category. However, if I change the permalink structure
   to `%categories%/%postname%` to make the URLs a bit nicer, I get stuck in a re-
   direct loop when I click the link for News.
 * Anyone know why this might be happening, and what might fix it?
 * Cheers
