  Hi Everybody
  I updated my wordpress from version 3.0 to 3.4.1. Immediately I noticed some troubles with permalinks related to categories pages, which return a 404 error. I temporarily solved with WCS-Permalinks plugin that catch 404 and return a page with a url like this: sitename/?cat=x.

  So I used function add_rewrite_rule() to add a pretty url into htaccess to solve the problem. I used this code:

  add_rewrite_rule('^shortcut/$','/?cat=2000/','top');

  with a flush the rule appears into htaccess with [QSA,L] but it seems not work. I always had a 404.

  any ideas?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)
