Hello,

I've search for this information but I've didn't find it.
Perhaps it's beacause of my bad english ;(.

I want to copy a link of an article or a link for a catégory, but when I copy the link( for example on facebook) after when we click on the link we go to the home of the website.

I don't understand ...
I've search and find th rewritable link but I don't understand what I'm supposed to do.

I hope you'll understand me .
Thank you so much for help

Hi!

How do the links to your blog look like? When you post it to facebook, Facebook often removes the "?" in a URL. So either you need to make your blog use "URL Rewriting" (in the configuration), or you need to use a link shortener like bit.ly, and use the bit.ly link in facebook, so that it properly redirects to your blog without removing or badly escaping URL special characters.

Hope that helps,
Garvin

good question and your english is quite good;))

You can do that by installing plug in to your blog.

Has anyone ever solved this problem satisfactorily?

I can't get Permalinks to work - they always link to the front page - whatever you type.

And I'm fed up with using Bitly and Tiny url as they don't show the photos from stories - you have to enter them separately!

Hi!

Post a screenshot of your current permalink&path configuration, and post the URL to your blog so that we can have a look.

Regards,
Garvin
