# Permalink Structure Problem after CPTs

 * I’m having a very strange problem that I cannot figure out. I’m really hoping
   you may have seen something like it before.
 * I created several CPTs and things were going well, then somewhere along the way
   I can no longer access my static pages. It didn’t start out that way, so I can’t
   imagine what happened. I know that when I first created my CPTs I could still
   access my pages.
 * What I have found is that when I have my permalinks set to Post Name (what I 
   have had set from the beginning), my CPT pages work fine but my static pages 
   redirect to my home page. When I change the Permalinks to the default I can access
   all my pages. If I set the Permalinks back to Post Name, once again I can only
   access my CPT pages, but my static pages redirect to my home page.
 * This is driving me crazy. Perhaps I need something changed in my htaccess or 
   config files, but I cannot figure out what it is.
 * I hope you may have seen something like this before to help guide me. Unfortunately
   my site is not live (it’s under maintenance mode) so I cannot show you what I
   mean.

 * UPDATE:
 * It appears to have been caused by the custom taxonomy I added to one of my CPTs,
   but I have no idea why. I followed the instructions and it showed up fine. I 
   did notice that even though I was able to add the categories to my CPTs, when
   I tried to list all posts associated with that Category, none would show up. 
   So something was not working correctly anyway. But once I deleted that code, 
   my custom permalinks are back to working properly. Very strange.

 * ANOTHER UPDATE:
 * I think this was all because I created a category with a reserved term (‘year’).
   I was able to add my category back with a unique term and it appears to be working
   correctly now.
