    Actually I am confused with the problem... I think I have find it but not resolved yet..

    The problem is I think because of the two plugins Permalink Redirect and Top Level Categories..

    Recently I installed Permalink Redirect... but I installed Top Level Categories..from the beginning itself... but now when I disabled Top Level Categories.. the categories worked... but with the text 'category' added before my categories....

    Then I changed my perma back to /%year%/%monthnum%/%day%/%postname%/ from /%postname%/ and its working now...


    Dont know what the problem is :( Still working with this.......

    The Permalink ReDirect must not be working with Top Level Categories. Try reinstalling Top Level Categories, and uninstalling Permalink ReDirect. Permalink ReDirect isn't really needed anymore, since search engines have fixed the fact that they would pull two pages with different URIs.

    I don't know how to help you. But, have you tried contacting the plug-in's author? That might be your only bet.

    You are right according to http://fortes.com/projects/wordpress/top-level-cats/ u can see that according to the author this problem exits for his previous versin and he claims that its resolved now... but see the comments almost all users have the same problem as mine...... BUT STILL MY QUERY is why it works for my other blog www.insightarticles.com I deaactivated and then activated TLA and Perma Plugin there... but still everything is working :(

    Also, If you can then please guide me via chat.... see my DP profile for my IM IDs. Otherwise this thread will be filled with my posts......

    For the time being... my only choice is Deactivate the Perma Plugin and Enable TLC.....

    OR Deactivate TLC and then redirect all category URLs to the new one using 301


    Anyway I dont want /%year%/%monthnum%/%day%/%postname%/ this type of links......

    And I have checked some top bloggers URLs they are all using the default category itself........



    So can anyone tell me how to redirect http://www.minterest.com/computing-technology/ to http://www.minterest.com/category/computing-technology/ using perma redirect plugin... I tried to do so but it didnt worked.....
