Permalinks Broken?

[Patrick Sasser]

Yea I did see that. I used that plugin to create custom post types, so basically I just got rid of the plugin on thecrossing.com and and used the register post type http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/register_post_type to create my custom post types. So now it is working.

We were also using the Ultimate Taxonomy Manager
http://wordpress.org/plugins/ultimate-taxonomy-manager/ to create custom taxonomies which also interfered with Events Calendar and Events Calendar Pro permalinks, so I had to get rid of that plugin as well. So to fix that I had to register my own taxonomies (http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/register_taxonomy) which is fine. Just thought you should know there was a problem with another plugin as well.

I do know that these plugins didn’t interfere until version 3.3 of Events Calendar and ECP, so that might be something to look into.

Any other thoughts? and then we can close the issue.

I’m not sure there’s too much to add at this point.

We have recently completed some work basically geared toward eliminating unnecessary operations on the rewrite table – it’s entirely possible that before that work was completed those additional operations may have had the happy but unintentional side effect of disguising this sort of conflict. Strictly speaking, though, they shouldn’t be needed.

In general then if you are using third party plugins that operate on the rewrite rules table – and they interfere adversely – I’m not sure there is too much we can do to help. If there was some indication that our code is at fault then of course we’d definitely be happy to revisit this, but right now I don’t believe that is the case (the fact that using the correct WordPress API functions to achieve the same goal as you were previously attempting to do with those plugins does not result in the same problems resurfacing would also seem to bear this out).

In light of that, and since it sounds like you’ve done a great job getting on top of this yourself, I’ll go ahead and close this thread.

Of course if we can help with anything else please do feel free to create new threads as needed.

Thanks!
