I never really felt new, “better”, software would be that evil…so I paid no mind.

Last night I gave into a little flashing image that would appear on my website’s control panel asking me to update WordPress to a new version. What a mistake. WordPress, as much as I love it, in version 2.6, has a big bug in it’s permalink function. Page urls were rewritten properly, but not posts. Every time a post would be selected, a 404 page not found error would occur. I flat-out blamed IIS7 since it has been behind many errors in my open source application installations lately. But looking around the web I noticed that it wasn’t IIS7′s fault but WORDPRESS! Apparently somehow this bug was overlooked in the release of version 2.6.

Fortunately they have been made aware and the bug is going to be fixed for version 2.6.1. But for those of you that want the fix NOW. Here is the quick version of the fix.
