access problems when folder, category, or feed name conflict with each other

[ymehui at y a h o o dot com]

When I have a tag called blog and there is a blog's title also called blog, I was not able to access the tags when it has the same URL for displaying the blog with title "blog".....

I think this is not a unique situation as I saw it happened in a few cases.

Another case is when I have 3 feeds also has the same title "Blog". All 3 feeds has the same URL.

As discussed in another tracker, the way how mod_write work might need to change as I see that there are no unique identifier in the URL for accessing tag/feed/etc. This can create problem as the URL create by certain functions might collide.

One way I can see to improve is to put a identifier for each function, ie

http://edmondhui dot homeip dot net/gregarius/feed/blog http://edmondhui dot homeip dot net/gregarius/tag/blog

This way, the URLs are unique.

I think http://svn.gregarius.net/trac/ticket/132 is related to the current problem with a different twist.

Part of this problem (the conflict with categories and feeds/folders) could be solved by by changing the permalink for categories to /category/ or something. A slightly more elegant solution would probably be to check each time a category, feed, or folder is named or renamed and complain when this occurs.

Looking at that ticket title, it becomes increasingly clear that I should have slept last night.
