Have mod rewrite on cat names/file names on.
When I mouse over the detail link or copy shortcut I get this - which I believe would be the correct url
http://www.masteradvertising.com/links/detail/387
When I click on the link it goes to -
www.masteradvertising.com/l...detail/comments.php?id=387
which is not found.
I looked though all settings and am not sure why - everything else is working properly.
This was a upgrade from a 3.x basic.
What do I need to do?

I'm not able to reproduce this. Are you sure you're not using old template code there instead of the <a href="{LINKDETAILSURL}">Details</a> in the current templates?

I haven't changed any of the template code - it acts as if it is not going to the mod rewrite url .. here is the partial error i get -
page /links/detail/comments.php?id=399 was not found on this server.
Where it should be going to the
/links/detail/387
Where would I go to look and see what the veriable is being used ? It does this on every link detail link in all catagories.

| <a href="{LINKDETAILSURL}">Details</a> <IF {SWITCH_COMMENTS}> | <a href="comments.php?id={LINKID}">Comments (<IF {LINKCOMMENTSREAD}>{LINKNUMCOMMENTS}<OTHERWISE><b>{LINKNUMCOMMENTS}</b></IF>)</a></IF>

I figured it out ... In my switches I had combine comments and details page set to on. This did not seem to be working properly for me.
When I turned this setting to off - my detail pages work fine.
Is this because it was an upgrade? Is there anyway I can combine those two options?

Will test it with that switch on.
Edit: Confirmed and working on fix.
