[wp-testers] Custom Post Types and Permalinks

[Jason Bobich]

I did try flushing re-write rules. As I said, I even went to the extent of installing a fresh WordPress 3.1RC4 on a new db, and all I did was install my theme,  turn on permalinks, and create a post (using the custom post type). I did this on both my live web server and on my local machine (using MAMP). Same thing happens.
