<h3>Known Issues</h3>
<p>I still haven’t tested this under <strong>WordPress multisite</strong>, issues have however been reported.</p>
<h3>Additional Credit</h3>
<p>Removal of the category base is based on iDope’s <strong>WP No Category Base</strong> but extended so that it works with category archives (ie.: <em>“http://example.com/my-category/2010/12”</em>).</p>
<p>Search redirection is based on Mark Jaquith’s <strong>Nice Search</strong> but extended so that it works with custom search base (ie.: <em>“http://example.com/search-base/search-term”</em>).</p>
<h3>Stable Versions</h3>
<p>For WordPress versions above 3.9 use the plugin version 3.4.</p>
<p>For WordPress versions above 3.4 use the plugin version 3.3.</p>
<p>For WordPress versions prior to 3.4 use the plugin version 2.7.2.1.</p>
