Thank you t-p. I read using permalinks, then decided to return to the default. Immediately everything worked again. It is hard to understand how programmers with a relational database available could get so hung up (out to dry as they say??). MYSQL is not the world’s strongest relational, but I have used it and it could easily manage anything you might want to do with permalinks, rapidly, without pain. Oh well—ugly come to daddy.
