WP 2.0.3 Permalink Issue?

This mystery gets creapier by the minute. A couple of weeks ago I switched to the permalink structure mentioned above (i.e. removed /index.php), and Google had updated its index soon thereafter. Well, that´s what I thought. Now a couple of hours ago I discovered some visitors refered by aforementioned search engine (still? again?) try to access URIs with /index.php inside. So this morning I tried to switch back to 2.0.2 – but got an error message (something like “header allready sent”). So, no way back but still no solution ahead. Frustrating. Nobody having some useful hint?

Yosemite, WordPress is installed in a sub-directory and permalink structure is /%year%/%monthnum%/%postname%/.

Concise and precise answer would be no, yes and yes.

Meanwhile I am looking up referals for each entry, then letting WP generate the ones where rewrite rules still do not apply (plus manually saving and uploading the code), and lastly putting a “Redirect permanent” into .htaccess. This seems to be a workaround, but is a real pain in the but. Any idea what could get my blog behaving normal again?

moshu, I’ll second that. On the other hand I wasn’t changing permalink structure that often (- it was about four weeks ago that I got rid off /index.php), and robots come by frequently. So I’m not causing the trouble myself, as your rule of thumb might have suggested.

My Workaround doesn’t fix “Almost Pretty” permalinks. 🙁 Heeeelp!
