Is there any way to show my Portfolio Categories in my permalinks, so that I can target some Portfolio Categories by a specific widget?
Or is there a better way to do this?

Thanks!

As I state at the very top of this article, the problem has been eliminated in WordPress 3.3. Me, Mark Jaquith, Jon Cave, and Andy Skelton fixed it back in August, a couple days before WordCamp San Francisco.

See http://core.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/18541 for the patch.

Otto,

I have a doubt regarding new update regarding to Permalink. There is a new setting which can enable us to just use ‘Post name’ – /index.php/sample-post/

As per your suggestion, non-number permalinks should not be set in older versions. I would like to know if there could be any trouble or if it is a good idea to chose this new permalink style(5th one)

Thank you !
