Thanks again. While I was at it I updated some other links that weren't really broken, but just to be consistent with my domain upgrade.

I guess the real lesson I learned today is to always pick from the list in the editor's link tool when linking to other of my own blog posts.

Typically, I advise against copying and pasting, since it does some weird things from time to time. If you do have to give that, give everything a thorough check before publishing.

I fixed it and it now works fine. At least on the one example - now I have to go check each article in the series (and maybe any other internal links in any post?). Of course that doesn't explain the difference from one view to another of the same post, but no matter I suppose.

I'm not sure how that could have happened, but I have two guesses. Either it is a result of my copy-and-pasting that italicized paragraph in from another post each time, else it is some strangeness that occured when I recently changed from homelessonwheels.wordpress.com to homelessonwheels.com (still hosted on wordpress.com).

Thanks again - I'll come back and mark this resolved once I've edited all the affected posts and make sure all works as it should.

I suspect you may just have a good link still in your browser's cache.

I recommend changing the link to what it should be.

Also, props on switching to DuckDuckGo. It's a great little search engine.

]]> homelessonwheels on "Internal link changes when reading in "category" view, resulting in "not found"" http://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/internal-link-changes-when-reading-in-category-view-resulting-in-not-found#post-863164 Thu, 12 Apr 2012 18:52:08 +0000 homelessonwheels 863164@http://en.forums.wordpress.com/ It's probably easiest to explain by demonstration. Look at any of my posts with titles beginning with "Exploring RV Living..." At the start of each, I note that they are part of a series, with a link to the introductory post of the series. That link works just dandy whe reading an individual post. It also works fine from the home page of my blog. If, however, you are looking at the category view, the link does NOT work.

Compare the behavior of link "the introduction" between the individual post:

http://homelessonwheels.com/2012/03/03/exploring-rv-living-differences-between-rvs-and-other-dwellings/

or home page http://homelessonwheels.com

where the link works fine, and reading it in category view:

http://homelessonwheels.com/category/exploring-rv-living/

where it does not. The URL seems to have the word "category" added in at the beginning where it doesn't belong. If I remove that word from the "bad" url, it will find the correct page (in spite of all the extra dates also apparently added to the path)

So... did I do something wrong? Or did I find a bug?

Reading on the home page, http://homelessonwheels.com works fine, too.

Well, I don't know how it happened, but the URL I had in the post was not the same as the URL of the post I was linking to. Some how the date was different. I have it fixed now. Maybe it was something I fat fingered when I wrote the post. ???

My husband did ask a good question. Is there some kind of tool that can scan a site for broken links rather than learning about this, like I did today?

Up to this point, I thought all was well and everything going to where it should.

Today, I learned a link I put within a post to a previous post shows up as Page Not Found. Here is the post I put the link in.
http://thebirdingbunch.com/2012/03/01/zick-dough/

The post was not deleted and I was able to get to it from a category link on my blog. Does this mean I need to go back through my blog and fix every link that goes to a different post? I thought mapping would have taken care of this.

Thanks for any advice.

There are dozens...hundreds...of internal links (what you all call "page jumps"). I know how to do these in HTML (they're all done already anyway) and, thanks to the WordPress article http://en.support.wordpress.com/splitting-content/page-jumps/ I learned that the secret to making the code work within a blog is to add "" at the top of the HTML code.

I can do this by hand but there will be at least 27 pages (A-Z plus an overview) and likely more. Is there anything I can add to the CSS, or another page of my theme's code, to have "" automatically entered correctly every time I create a new post?

Thanks!
