I've never done the "set type to Link" thing, but in general the action of clicking the title depends on the skin. The custom skin, when a post is a post, will link a title to whatever was in the Link to URL field. Some skins were made so that the title always links to the permalink.

What skin are you using?

Using BOOGLE skin. Worked fine prior to upgrade to 1.8-1.9. May be in the way I adjusted the code. Not sure. web site is http://www.buyforless.com
Thanks for help

FIXED - EdB thanks for the help. When you said "Some skins were made so that the title always links to the permalink." it gave me the hint I needed when looking at the code.

Changed 'False' to 'True' in this string to correct problem:

<div class="postTitle">
<a href="<?php $Item->permanent_url() ?>" title="<?php echo T_('Permanent link to full entry') ?>"><?php
$Item->title( '', '', false ); // No link to related URL

Now when you click the post title it goes directly to the linked URL

Thanks
