So I’ve got several different sites running on Wordpress and about a week ago I started upgrading all of them to version 2.5.  I really like the upgrade so far, the admin interface is taking a little bit to get used to but overall I really like it.   Now all of my sites seem to be doing fine with the upgrade with the exception of one that I noticed was having massive permalink problems.

This is actually site running of the popular wordpress ebay plugin called PhpBay and I highly recommend it for building some great niche ebay sites to make some cash.  It’s the best $49 that I’ve spent in awhile to generated some solid profits.

So I’ve got a few sites running this plugin but only one seems to be having problems with the permalink structure.  I’m really not sure what the issue is because some of the permalinks work and others that should be working are pointing to 404 errors that the post is not there.  In addition I’ve got lots of other plugins running as well and I’ve made sure they’re all compatible with 2.5, disabled them, and nothing seems to fix the problem.  At this point I’m probably going to restructure the whole site anyway to take advantage of some SEO stuff that I overlooked the first time around, but this is still very frustrating because I cannot figure out what seems to be causing this.

If anyone else has had any problems like this I’d definitely love to hear the solution that you’ve come up with.  I’m honestly just thinking that something crazy happened during the upgrade since this is the only site that it happened on.

Ok, so lets face it not everyone is a great designer that can build or customize their own Wordpress theme to fit their tastes. However most people would like to have a blog design that stands out and distinguishes them from the rest of the crowd.

I actually came across this really cool WP Theme Generator the other day that basically lets you pick out the color scheme and layout to be applied to your own custom theme.  Once your done choosing everything you want then you can just export the theme and simply upload it to your Wordpress installation and your ready to go!

So now really you’ve got no limits as to what you can put out there for your own blog. You can choose the most hideous color scheme around and this tool gives you the creative freedom to be able to do that.  So if your looking for an easy way to quickly customize a Wordpress theme for yourself then I would definitely check out the WP Theme Generator.
