Activating WP e-commerce breaks permalinks

    11 years, 3 months ago

    Store URL: https://www.uprisebooks.org (plugin currently deactivated)
    WordPress version: 3.7.1
    WP e-Commerce version: 3.8.12.1
    Gold Cart version: N/A
    Theme: Pagelines (same result with others)

    I did this: Activated wp e-commerce..

    I expected WP e-Commerce to do this: work without throwing errors?

    Instead it did this: Breaks pages using non-default permalinks settings or a custom URL. For example, https://www.uprisebooks.org/donate ends up with several lines of this in the header when wp e-commerce is activated:

    Similar results occur in the Product settings page on the WP admin screen.

    Just deactivating the plugin doesn’t immediately fix the issue. I then have to go into the Permalinks page and re-save the settings exactly as they were (the same action, or the ol’ “2x save” one, does nothing to help once wp e-commerce is activated).

    Any ideas?

    Should mention I did try disabling all plug-ins and switching to one of the default themes. Same problem.

    @eljustino sorry for the late reply. Our team spend most of our time in our own premium support forums over on our website.

    Can you please confirm that this issue is still unresolved after trying WPEC 3.8.13 – until then I’ll mark this as resolved on the basis that 3.8.13 has lots of nice fixes and updates.

    Also since you mentioned Gold Cart, if you do purchase an upgrade you can submit a report via our premium forums where one of our team will be able to respond.

    Sorry, but we couldn’t find any help for this and had no real choice but to use Woocommerce instead.
