I hate to answer this with a link, But with WordPress 3.3, how it searches for permalinks have been greatly improved so you can almost put anything into the permalinks and it will be fast. http://ottopress.com/2011/how-the-postname-permalinks-in-wordpress-3-3-work/
Never try to upgrade that many versions in a single step! You will need to carry out a series of smaller, manual, upgrades: 2.7 -> 2.8 -> 2.9 -> 3.0 -> 3.2 -> 3.3.1 ->3.3 I would deactivate all plugins and switch to default theme when you get to current version, switch themes to what … Read more
A better, cleaner way to do this would be to use proper string return methods and concatenation. I say this, because you’re trying to put functions that echo content (i.e. the_title() into a variable – this won’t work!!! Instead: $text=”<form><td>Permalink to: “; $text .= get_the_title(); $text .='</td><textarea cols=”85″ rows=”2″ readonly=”readonly” onclick=”select()”/>’; $text .= get_permalink( $id … Read more
Going to assume here that at the moment your blog posts show up as http://domain/post-name and you would like them to show up as http://domain/blog/post-name If that’s the case, all you have to do is go to Settings>Permalinks and in the Custom Structure field put: /blog/%postname%/

This happened probably because you have … Options +MultiViews … somewhere in your .htaccess or httpd.conf. If there is no directory /contact/ Apache will look for a file with this name and MultiViews matches partial files names. In general MultiViews and WordPress don’t work well together.
Your question has the answer right in it! I have ‘rewrite’ => false,, is there something else I should be doing? From the Codex: To prevent rewrites, set to false. By setting that to false, you’re preventing the default behavior that you want.
It sounds like you need a second loop on your home page to call the 3 most recent posts. Try something like this: // Main home page content here <?php $my_query = new WP_Query( array( ‘posts_per_page’ => 3, ‘nopaging’ => true ) ); while ( $my_query->have_posts() ) : ( $my_query->the_post() ); ?> <div id=”preview”> <div … Read more
I hate to say it, but the answer is to not edit the post slug or category. Yes, you can edit the post name … but leave the slug alone. Remember, other people (users, Google, etc.) use these URLs as well, so changing the URL of a post around makes them think it’s a new … Read more
