Fix for GoTryThis v1.x WordPress permalink issue
Note: This fix is for version 1.x of GoTryThis I was checking some links on my blog today and realised that when I changed the WordPress permalink structure it broke GoTryThis. A search revealed a few partial solutions but none of them worked. Here’s how I solved the problem on my blog at soho-internet.com: 1.
