By the way, i know wordpress automatically redirects the old permalinks to the new ones, but for some reason i get 404 errors whenever i click on a link with the old permalinks :/

OK, i’m using the google change url tool and that’s fine, now i would need to create the 301 redirects, could you point me to the right direction here? you mentioned i didn’t have to create a rule for each year, month, but i wouldn’t know how to proceed (i wouldn’t even know what to search)

—EDIT—
The google change URL tool allows me to change domains but that’s not my case, i still have the same domain (be-openminded.com), i just need to change the permalink of the posts.

@digico Paris i thought i had to write .htaccess rules but here’s my “dilemma”

My old links were more or less something like this:
/year/month/postname
ex:
/2012/01/postname
/2012/02/postname
/2012/03/postname
/2012/04/postname
…
i suppose i have to write one rule for each year but Should i also add one rule for each month or is there a way to write a general rule for that??

This would solve my 3rd question, and that would be a huge step!

Cool! That’s really valuable info! Thank you very much ??

Oh, good to know @jkhongusc . And is it posible to have say, one database for, say, 1000 sites only and every other 1000 it just creates a new database or something? I mean is there any plugin for that or should I program it myself?

Hi,
First of all i want to thank you for the info. i’ll definitely give a look to the links you posted.

i was already aware of the table size problem on the long run but the thing is that what i want to achieve is rather complicated for me right now since i’m not an expert programmer.

i want every site to represent a whole city and every single article of that specific site will be about a specific business belonging to that city.

On the homepage (a non city-specific site) you would be able to choose the city you’re interested in using a comboBox i’m building (with custom links to the “homepage” to every city). and all this could be done without multisite.

I managed to solve the template/specific site theme problem, but my main concern are the categories: there will be a LOT of categories and they would all be mixed together

The structure i would like to achieve would be something like this:

Region1
-Province1.1
–city1.1
—business category 1 (i.e: restaurants)
—Business category 2 (i.e: supermarkets)

Region2
-Province2.1
–city2.1
—business category 1
—Business Category 2

and so on (nested categories).

This would be fairly easy with multisite cause every site would be a single city and it would only need to have the business categories. on the other hand, if i don’t use multisite i wouldn’t be able to separates the business categories and i would end up with one business category containing several cities’s businesses and that would be a mess for the search engine inside my page (i wouldn’t know how to handle or solve it and don’t know any plugins that could let me customize the search)

there would be a lot of duplicates while using multisite, yes, but it would be a “quick fix” to my problem.

Could that be solved with the use of custom post types? (i’m not very informed on that feature since i haven’t used it at all :/ )

Thanks in advance for the info!

Well, maybe not.

I just thought it’d be more organized for the backend user (me). What other approach would you recommend?

The same thing happened to me (i actually have the pro version). i asked them for support and they told me a lot of user have had this problem and they’re working on it, they also advised me to change the permissions of the wp-config and .htaccess files to 644. that worked or me.

Here’s a screenshot of my problem:

Hi Andrew,

First of all thank you for the advice!

Now, the level 1 heading is without any doubt necessary, any other size looks way too small for the heading, and yes it’s true that heading 2 and 3 are not there, but until now i just used it as an aesthetic way to “format” my articles, you might have notice that every article in the blog uses the same format and that the level 4 heading is used to separate the introduction (which might have some of what i call repeated content, necessary for the-frequent- reader to actually evaluate whether to read or not the article from the homepage) from the rest of the article
From the aesthetic point of view, creating a level 2 heading first and then a level 3 and so on, would look horrible and weird :S

i’ve been studying some SEO (and i’m trying to start applying it in my blog) and i always read about headings and its importance but until now i didn’t get the importance, now, that i got it, i don’t know what to do.
i could eliminate the lvl 4 heading but then it wouldn’t look so good, could you give me some other advise on how to solve this?

thank you very much!!

it’s worth the redundancy hehe :), and thanks for your “review” ;p
