WordPress and Permalinks Help!

    I really like WordPress but setting up the bloody Permalinks is starting to annoy me.

    I want to use /%postname%.htm with the generated mod_rewrite rules, which works fine for categories and posts but breaks the month links (they actually become /%postname)

    Can anybody shed any light on this please as I don't really want to go back to the paramatised URLs. Thanks.

    Thanks SE, I'm really after something simpler than that, just automatic month links would suit me fine. If only there was a forum about blogs I could join ;)

    Very Funny ;)

    All you have to do with that solution is upload the n_archives.php file and link to it, then that should work.

    Thanks Kaptain Dave and SEbasic

    I've gone for /%year%/%monthnum%/%day%/%postname%/
    I would have prefered a shallower depth and htm extension but at least all links work now (only took 2 months)
