Permalinks

[InAdvertent]

Hi there, I wanted to use /%category%/%postname% for my permalinks

but found that if you have FEATURED click it over rides the category you would like to display so instead of BOSTON (for example) the permalink will show

/featured/postname

having to use FEATURED to achieve IMAGE display in the slider messes with the permalink

I have been trying to find a solution via the custom-post-permalinks and custom-permlinks without much success and have started reading more about Custom Post Type UI

EDIT: also looking at Hikari Category Permalink plugin now

but fear I may be going round in circles for a while .. anyone know the best and straight solution, please?

Thanks
