  1. That sounds like a bug in the theme. My first guess is that there’s a naming collision. I believe “category” is the slug WordPress uses for displaying post categories, while the theme is trying to use “category” to rewrite page permalinks.

    As an experiment, try editing WordPress’ built-in Category base option.

    Try going to Dashboard > Settings > Permalinks, and at the bottom under “Category base” set the field to something besides “category”, like “mycats” or whatever. For fun try setting it to “category” explicitly and see what happens.
