    if I have wordpress permalink structure /%category%/%postname% .. what do I put in the WP Link Directory --> Other options --> Permalinks box to make it work? currently leaving links in there just makes everything go back to the homepage.. leaving it blank makes permalinks not work :-)

    thanks

  2. Make sure you delete the inserted default word "links" in the field at OTHER OPTIONS-> Permalink in the WP Link Directory Settings page. It should then work. Also make sure that the page is not made "sticky" (to be displayed at your blogs main page).

    Thanks for a great plugin. I unfortunately got stuck in problems with the permalinks and all links in the plugin leads to the index page.

    Current status:
    *Plugin: Other options -> permalink structure is empty (have tested typing "links" and other short words)
    *Tested posting the plugin both on a page and in a post. It worked initially on the post on test, but not when published, and has never worked since neither on test or in live. The post is added in a new category with a different name than the post. The post slug name is "directory".
    *The permalink settings on the site is /%category%/%postname%. This I do not want to change if not absolutely needed.
    *Example of link that is not working is the "Add URL" link. In this case the permalink is domain.com/categoryname/postname?act=addsite
    *wordpress 2.9.2

    Any tips on how to get the plugin to work, will it be possible with my set up?

    Thanks in advance.
