Activity stream links to new user blog from profile = 404 errors

Oops! After just upgrading this morning to BP1.2.2.1, activity stream links to a new user’s blog from his profile lead to 404 errors.

The link structure in the stream looks like this: http://rspace.org/thailandhotels/2010/02/14/the-royal-trophy-2010/

The actual page link is this: http://rspace.org/thailandhotels/the-royal-trophy-2010/

I changed the permalink structure to remove the date information, but the activity stream links still contain the dates. Can’t get the links to cooperate, darn it!

Any ideas anyone?

EDIT: the user has set his permalinks to show only the postname, but even if I do the same in my backend, the dates still show in the links from the stream.

If you change your permalinks, old blog post activity items will not be updated to the new permalink structure

My suggestion would be to redirect these old blog post permalinks to their new ones using a WP plugin.

I’ve used this one in the past:

It’s a little old, but it worked for me.
