Really no way to make them the same. That being said, you can re-write all the old URL's to the new location. I wrote up a post detailing all <a href="http://snowulf.com/2010/06/14/serendipity-to-wordpress-rewriting-urls/" rel="nofollow">the url rewrites I used</a> to get everything pushed over. It should cover most every request, but... s9y was not good at all when it comes to keeping URLs to one format (at least in my experience).</p> <p>If you don't understand <a href="http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/mod_rewrite.html" rel="nofollow">mod_write</a>, it's going to be a bit of gibberish unfortunately. I did add some basic comments to explain though.</p> <p>Hope that helps.</p> The layout of WordPress and S9y are different. Really no way to make them the same.

If you don’t understand mod_write, it’s going to be a bit of gibberish unfortunately. I did add some basic comments to explain though.

Hope that helps.
