    Hello,

    I use Tapestry for my site GoneScamping.com. I've got categories and tags set up for each post, but when I go to the drop down ("Topics O' Interest" in the right sidebar) and try to go to that categories page I get a 404 error. Same with tags - I click on one on a post and get a 404. What gives?

    Thank you!

    Have you reset your permalinks? Have you deactivated all plugins to rule out conflicts?

    Thanks for the quick response! How do I reset permalinks? I haven't deactivated plugins.

    Go to Settings=>Permalinks and set them to default.

    Will that change my SEO-friendly URLs on all past posts?

    You can worry about that after figuring out your problem

    Okay. What do I do after I set it to default? (I can't do it right this second because I just posted and the link is being shared, and I don't want to give people a 404.)
