Switching back to ugly permalinks

    Hi, some weeks ago I switched to nice permalinks. I’ve listened to some folks about SEO, which I shouldn’t have done. The title of a post became a part of the URL. I lost the facebookcounts for all the posts before that, but that didn’t matter much to me.

    Since then I’ve noticed sometimes that my permlinks didn’t work. I have to login and set again in the settings of the permalinks how they should appear. So this isn’t stable. Therefore I will switch back to the standard url because I don’t like unstable webites.

    Google now lists my posts with nice permalinks, showing the titles of the posts. Switching back will therefore cause some irritation. Will WordPress sort this out by itself or do I have to do something on my own to handle this?

    Would it be wise to create a new sitemap after switching back and inform google (webmaster tools) about this?

    Tom

    This is not an issue with WordPress, but possibly one with your server. I would try to figure this out, as this is your real problem, and could affect any other actions you take.
