Yeah, it's a canonical problem. The first question - what form do the links use. In other words, how is the WP navigation building your links? Presumably, it's adding the slash. So first you need to go to http://[your domain]/wp-admin/options-permalink.php And add/remove the slash from your permalink path as needed. Then, for incoming links, you need to set up your .htaccess or httpd.conf to send a 301 and redirect to/from the version with the trailing slash, depending on what you need. Does that make sense?

I put in the trailing slash in the permalink path However, can you put in non techy terms the instructions for setting up the htaccess file? This way I can redirect the nontrailing slash to the trailing slash. Thanks ergophobe! You've been such a great help ... as always
