404 no matter what, compatibility issue?

    I’m using Permalink Manager to manage all my page url structure (for compatibility with old website), however no matter what I do I get a 404 on the download links (tried this sticky no difference).

    When the code gets to the function simple_download_counter_download_handler the $_GET request only contains the query param “key” and nothing else.

    I can fix it by also checking the REQUEST URI to grab the parameter needed… thoughts?

     if (isset($_GET[$key]) && !empty($_GET[$key])) {

            $wp->query_vars[$key] = sanitize_key($_GET[$key]);
    } else {
            $uri_segments = explode('/', parse_url($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'], PHP_URL_PATH));
            if ((count($uri_segments) > 3) && ($uri_segments[1] == $key)) {
                $wp->query_vars[$key] = sanitize_key($uri_segments[2]);
            }
    }

    Hello,

    I tried with custom permalink structure and cannot repeat this issue on default WordPress, everything is working normally using /%year%/%monthnum%/%day%/. With that in place, I added a new download, displayed shortcode/link on front end, and downloaded without error.

    So not sure if there is something else like another plugin at issue, or maybe something server/config related..? I don’t know, but I do want to fix any issues, so will leave this thread open in case someone can jump in with some clues or related infos.
