It actually had nothing to do with permalink structure, as I kinda expected. It was due to an idiot – me :P. When I transferred the files to the new server – I accidentally put the index.php page in the root folder instead of the theme folder…lol * Oh well. Thanks for all your suggestions & help though 🙂 * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Permalinks issue](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/permalinks-issue-7/) * Thread Starter [CSKnet](https://wordpress.org/support/users/csknet/) * (@csknet) * [16 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/permalinks-issue-7/page/2/#post-1401368) * That makes sense. However, in our site categories don’t really show up on the front-end as links. For example, each martial arts style we teach is a category, ex: northern shaolin, bagua, etc. Then each style has a “blog” and on those pages, I call in only posts within that style’s category – appearing almost like a multi- blog environment, when in fact it’s only one with categories being the filter. * An informative post may be considered an article, so we mark it as an additional“ article” category. On the articles page it’d only be a summary – link title & excerpt. * So I think the duplicate content thing won’t have too much effect here. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Permalinks issue](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/permalinks-issue-7/) * Thread Starter [CSKnet](https://wordpress.org/support/users/csknet/) * (@csknet) * [16 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/permalinks-issue-7/page/2/#post-1401352) * Hi webmasterguru – thanks, but we know about setting the permalinks settings.

Then go in and manually change the hard-coded links to reflect this (and will end up having to write re-directs for them, as they were working properly in this format on the old server and we already have link juice for them) and leave the hard-coded links that do not point to WP files as is. * If I understand you…This should fix the problem….. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Permalinks issue](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/permalinks-issue-7/) * Thread Starter [CSKnet](https://wordpress.org/support/users/csknet/) * (@csknet) * [16 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/permalinks-issue-7/#post-1401327) * Am I correct to understand that you guys are saying that all links need to follow the exact same structure, whether permalink or hard-coded link? * I don’t understand how that is at all possible. Permalinks will have a dynamic format, usually with the %postname% in there somewhere. Yet, static links, for example “Instructors” will point to the “Instructors” folder -> Index.php of that folder. * Please help me understand, and thank you. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Permalinks issue](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/permalinks-issue-7/) * Thread Starter [CSKnet](https://wordpress.org/support/users/csknet/) * (@csknet) * [16 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/permalinks-issue-7/#post-1401229) * I will manually go in and fix the sidebar links and hope that works. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Permalinks issue](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/permalinks-issue-7/) * Thread Starter [CSKnet](https://wordpress.org/support/users/csknet/) * (@csknet) * [16 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/permalinks-issue-7/#post-1401222) * If I could just make one of the Permalinks to go through to the proper page – then I would change all of them, to that layout.

No, not ALL LINKS on my menu use permalinks – as they shouldn’t in the first place for hard-coded links and pages. * They are not “all over the place”, and we haven’t even touched the actual problem I stated in the beginning. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Permalinks issue](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/permalinks-issue-7/) * Thread Starter [CSKnet](https://wordpress.org/support/users/csknet/) * (@csknet) * [16 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/permalinks-issue-7/#post-1401201) * SS_Minow – did you read my response? i don’t “also” have the id=2 thing, I had just changed the permalink structure to show you that the “index” thing you were referring to was just the Permalink structure……. * Articles is a static page I created. All static pages that I coded myself show up correctly…It is only the WP-created pages & posts that do not. * On the separate issue of the overlay – it doesn’t “keep” popping up. It only pops up on the home page – but it appears to “keep” popping up because of the very issue I am asking about – that page with the overlay continually reloading instead of going to the links that use permalink structure. * Warren – Thanks for looking into this, but no, it’s not a Yahoo site. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Permalinks issue](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/permalinks-issue-7/) * Thread Starter [CSKnet](https://wordpress.org/support/users/csknet/) * (@csknet) * [16 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/permalinks-issue-7/#post-1401169) * This one: [http://www.pathsatlanta.org/instructors/index.php](http://www.pathsatlanta.org/instructors/index.php) Should be there. It’s an index file within the instructors folder * The: [http://www.pathsatlanta.org/index.php/classes-at-paths-atlanta/](http://www.pathsatlanta.org/index.php/classes-at-paths-atlanta/) is there at the moment as I just assigned the permalink custom structure to have the index.php in front of it. * No matter what Permalink structure I choose, it still loads the main page, including the default, such that the classes-at-paths-atlanta/ page = [http://www.pathsatlanta.org/?page_id=592](http://www.pathsatlanta.org/?page_id=592), like it is if you check it again now. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Links not working?](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/links-not-working-19/) * [CSKnet](https://wordpress.org/support/users/csknet/) * (@csknet) * [16 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/links-not-working-19/#post-1311936) * Any other ideas?
