Strict Permalinks does two things:
- Restricts the
post_nameportion of the permalink to alphanumerics and hyphens - Disables permalink editing once a post is published
Like me, you may have been under the impression that post slugs are already restricted to alphanumerics and hyphens. In the current WordPress 2.8.5, a title that includes certain kinds of punctuation (e.g., "smartquotes") will result in URL-encoded characters in the post_name field. Many browsers handle this oddity seamlessly, however this may cause difficulties when integrating with systems expecting a more limited URL syntax.
