Sidebar Bug Fixed
September 4th, 2007I happened to notice that the category links in the sidebar alongside have not been working. Thanks to Google Analytics, I know at least a few people have tried clicking on those links recently, and therefore fixing it quickly was obligatory.
The problem exists at some level within Wordpress’ handling of URIs with custom themes. The permalinks structure, when set to the Date/Time format (where the addresses of posts use the ../MM/DD/.. format), has not been working with my current theme. Reverting to the ‘Default’ permalinks structure (under Wordpress Options > Permalink) seems to resolve the problem. I’d really like to use the date/time format, however, so if I find a better fix for this I’ll be reverting to the previous format (although highly unlikely given this blog’s viewership, that should correct any links that people might have linked to).
