To my fellow site administrators who are still having issues with the WP Router Placeholder Page…. I got it working again! The solution? Downgrade WordPress 3.4 -> 3.3.2. Not the most elegant solution, but the easiest until Modern Tribe is able to work out the kinks. See below if you want to replicate the process:

– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –
1. Backup, yes everything. Hopefully you have SSH to make life easy.
2. Download WordPress 3.3.2-RC1: http://wordpress.org/wordpress-3.3.2-RC1.tar.gz
3. Upload and replace the following to your install root: wp-admin, wp-includes, and all the wp-*.php files in the .tar.gz archive
4. Go to http://www.yoursite.com/wp-admin and click the “Upgrade Database”
5. Test and cleanup (I use W3 Total Cache and cleared it out just in case)

Done

Best of luck.

Any update on this issue? I am able to get it working properly on a fresh install locally under XAMPP, but still cannot get rid of this bug on my production or testing site.

I have tried pretty much every combination available of disabling/enabling plugins and permalink settings, as well as testing these different options with the default twenty eleven and twenty twelve theme. I will keep digging into this, but would appreciate any insight from the development team I can get on resolving this bug.

Thanks again for taking your time to look into this and for logging into the site to see where it might have gone awry. I tried every permalink option in WordPress, but that did not seem to make any difference in this issue.

So I made a duplicate dev site and deactivated all plugins on the dev site. Then I activated only tri.be plugins for The Events Calendar and played with the permalink settings. Unfortunately none of this seems to make a difference in resolving the WP Router Placeholder.

If you have time, you are more than welcome to login to the dev site and try to get a configuration that works. User/pass is the same, site is at dev [dot] websie-i-sent-you [dot] com

@jonah Thanks for looking into this and responding quickly, but that did not correct the issue. I am emailing admin access to you guys.

Didn’t show up in the WP updates, and had to manually download 1.0.1.1. However, this but did not fix the WP-Router problem for me.

As for permalink structure, I am using “Month and name” standard.

Thanks for this troubleshooting method! I was able to find and zap the problem easily after that. In case anyone else runs into this issue, here’s the only line of code needed to fix it:

in /functions.php

ORIGINAL:
add_theme_support(‘post-thumbnails’, array(‘post’));

CHANGE TO:
add_theme_support(‘post-thumbnails’, array(‘post’,’tribe_events’));

(or add it to however many custom post types you need it on)

THANKS ROB! I was seconds away from trying to hack and slash an undesirable fix for it

[Ian Ray]

Thanks for the lightning fast response!

I checked there also, but it’s not an option available to me (but again is available in Posts/Pages section). I keep referring it against Posts/Pages to confirm it is not a global issue. Lemme know where else I can dig.
