Thanks for keeping up updated and for adding great features, like the re-feeding of the combined RSS. * I only wish it could also auto-generate an OPML file for each of my output templates. For that I still have to rely on either my blogroll or an external aggregator like Newsgator. * Hope you can maybe add that someday. * Rich BlogRodent * Forum: [Installing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/installation/) In reply to: [Help relocating an established blog and redirecting old links](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/help-relocating-an-established-blog-and-redirecting-old-links/) * [rtatum](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rtatum/) * (@rtatum) * [19 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/help-relocating-an-established-blog-and-redirecting-old-links/#post-539237) * Bryan, sorry, this is off-topic, but I hope you’re still subscribing to this feed. * I cannot access your site, apparently because ozpolitics.info currently has no A records since your hosting provider moved you to a new server.

Know what I mean?” * On that particular post, I don’t think I modified the slug, at all. The title was “Blog Flux Complete!” and the slug naturally became blog-flux-complete. I didn’t modify it. And prior to the upgrade to 2.0, it was working. The 404s came after the upgrade. * You also asked: * “When you go to the dashboard and manage your posts, what happens when you click on the ‘view’ link for any of the articles you’re having trouble with?” * When I’m editing the article, the preview displays the 404 page. After editing it, when I click on “view” from the management page, I get the 404 page. I tried editing the post slug so that it was different from before and no longer matched the title, and it was still broken. * In short, the “Blog Flux Complete!” link slug was unmodified, and it is broken. After modifying it to something else, it remains broken. * Rich. * [http://tatumweb.com/blog/index.php/2005/12/09/blog-flux-complete/](http://tatumweb.com/blog/index.php/2005/12/09/blog-flux-complete/) * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [WP 404 on permalinks](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wp-404-on-permalinks/) * [rtatum](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rtatum/) * (@rtatum) * [20 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wp-404-on-permalinks/page/3/#post-302995) * Yes. Sometimes my titles are quite long, so I shorten the slug. This worked previously, and I assumed that’s why the option is there to modify the slug. * It does work on most articles, still.
