I have a WP blog, but Cyrillic posts resulted in Permlinks which were just a bunch of incomprehensible characters. It’s a bit tiresome to enter all post “slugs” manually, so I just wrote a WordPress plugin which will automatically generate Latin Slugs for your Cyrillic posts so that you don’t have to do it manually every time you post something. If anyone is interested, here is the link: http://petko.bossakov.eu/wordpress-cyrillic-slugs-plugin/

I have the same problem with some of my posts but I cannot find Permlinks options. why?

I am glad that it helps, at least we will have temporary solution, until WordPress.Com resolve their issue (__if__ they resolve it).

The workaround worked for my long Greek titles.

WordPress.com is huge blog-hub and all blogs share the same settings.

I already tried many different combinations, but none (except that) seemed to be the solution.

The default rewrite rule (Permlink option) for wordpress includes the title of the post. Since I also blog in Bulgarian, I had to do the following:
in the wp-admin section, go to Options -> Permlinks and select: Custom, specify below and in the field Custom structure I use: /%year%/%monthnum%/%day%/%post_id%
It is also nice and since it uses only digits it is error free. Yes, it does not look as nice, but you don’t have to slug and it will fix all post links.
The only problem I have found is that all old references to posts with the title in the url are not valid anymore. But if you change it when you start, you can write in chinese if you want 🙂

Good Luck
