[wp-hackers] How to remove /author/ permalink

[Chris Williams]

I was assuming one would:

1) Build a test copy of the current setup on a local machine
2) Change the rewrite rules.
3) Write some new test posts to be sure the rules are the way you want
them.
4) Change the existing posts (as I suggested)
5) Test to make sure that you can see the old posts (and pages) via the
new rewrite rules.
6) Upload this test system to the live system.

But whatever, throwing your hands up and just forgetting the whole thing,
as you suggest, is also an option...
