Plugin causes 400 errors, then 301 redirects

    Hi,

    Upon updating the plugin (I updated from version 1.2.0 to 3.1.1), all the single views on my client site (davisav.staging.wpengine.com) resulted in 400 errors: https://files.builtbygood.co/U8rC/49BsArJC

    Then, I got a notice in the WP Dashboard from the plugin to “Check Permalink Settings!”

    Before updating any settings, these were my settings:
    Screenshot 1 of 2: https://files.builtbygood.co/vgmM/1Gwy5xv2
    Screenshot 2 of 2: https://files.builtbygood.co/EgA7/52nPQznP

    I went to my Permalink settings and it didn’t appear as though anything had changed. But to be safe, I selected “Custom Structure” (it was on Post Name, but /%postname%/ was the Custom Structure so I just selected it, thinking they are the same thing (Post Name == /%postname%/)).

    Upon saving the Permalinks, two things happened:

    1. It appears to have re-selected Post Name all by itself: https://files.builtbygood.co/jkpz/5202JC19

    2. All URLs on my site now 301 redirect to the homepage.

    If flush_rewrite_rule is written in a theme or the like, that problem may occur.

    @toro_unit flush_rewrite_rule isn’t written in the theme, although I did a search through all the plugin files and found a few plugins containing that function:

    1. Gravity Forms
    2. Custom Post Type Permalinks
    3. WCK Custom Fields and Custom Post Types
    4. WordPress SEO by Yoast
    5. Migrate DB Pro

    What do I do?

    Checking in here.

    I reverted back to my original version of CPT Permalinks (1.2.0) and updated one version at a time.

    It appears version 2.1.1 introduced this bug.

    Any ideas?
