 * When I create a category, and open its URL, it gives a 404 error.
 * When I create a post in that category, it still gives a 404 error.
 * Then when I go back to Admin Category section and just click update on the category,
   it starts to work.
 * Can someone please explain why this is happening? Thanks.

 * What happened was the Seo plugins that remove the “/category/” were causing this
   problem. I haven’t actually figured out how to make it work since at the moment
   I’m testing the website with default “?cat=39” type of links.
