Note: for anyone looking for a quick fix (as I am), you can edit line #314 in wp-admin/includes/export.php from

<wp:category><wp:category_nicename><?php echo $c->slug; ?></wp:category_nicename><wp:category_parent><?php echo $c->parent ? $cats[$c->parent]->name : ''; ?></wp:category_parent><?php wxr_cat_name( $c ); ?><?php wxr_category_description( $c ); ?></wp:category>

TO

<wp:category><wp:category_nicename><?php echo $c->slug; ?></wp:category_nicename><wp:category_parent><?php echo $c->parent ? $cats[$c->parent]->slug : ''; ?></wp:category_parent><?php wxr_cat_name( $c ); ?><?php wxr_category_description( $c ); ?></wp:category>

Notice the change from “$cats[$c->parent]->name” to “$cats[$c->parent]->slug”

iridiax, thanks for the renaming tip. I simply renamed my .htaccess file that lived in the same folder as my “wp-admin”, “wp-content”, and “wp-includes” folders to “.htaccessBACKUP”. Then I went back to the permalinks page at wp-admin/options-permalink.php, and reentered my permalink structure, and all was solved. Thanks again
