     Type:  defect (bug)  |      Status:  new                    
 Priority:  high          |   Milestone:  2.7.1                  
Component:  Permalinks    |     Version:  2.7                    
 Severity:  major         |    Keywords:  Static Page, Permalinks
--------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
 I set this to '''MAJOR''' only because of the issue with URLs changing
 causing massive 404s

 I'll try and be as clear as I can.
 In WP, when using the feature under Reading Settings >> Front page
 displays I notice that all previous sites I had upgraded to 2.7 broke the
 URL structure that had been in place.

 For instance, with "A static page (select below)" Selected and both Home
 Page and Posts Page set to a specific "PAGE" the permalink URL changes
 after upgrade.
 Front page: Home
 Posts page: Blog

 Where the URL use to be http://www.domainname.com/blog/post/ or
 /blog/post.html
 After the update, the "single" no longer has /blog/ in the URL

 Permalinks are set as follows;

 /%postname%/  or simply /%postname%.html

 This has happened on all sites I upgraded to WP 2.7
