URL pre path mode is always disabled

This button is disabled if function qtranxf_is_permalink_structure_query returns true. Could you debug which condition is misbehaving on your server?

Yes, that function’s conditions is:
return empty($permalink_structure)||strpos($permalink_structure, '?')!==false||strpos($permalink_structure, 'index.php')!==false;

Clearly it’s the last part that’s always returning true, because all of the predefined WordPress URL styles contain index.php (except for one, which is the query with ‘?’).

Doesn’t this appear to be a bug in qTranslate-X?

Anyway, I tried a custom URL style which doesn’t include index.php, and surely enough it didn’t work; the pages no longer load (404).

Thanks for your help

How come nobody else notice any problem so far? I cannot reproduce the problem either. I am not sure now, but index.php must be there for a reason. What is the value of $permalink_structure do you get there for each of choices of permalink structure in /wp-admin/options-permalink.php?
I get (in the order of choices):
”
/%year%/%monthnum%/%day%/%postname%/
/%year%/%monthnum%/%postname%/
/archives/%post_id%
/%postname%/

There is no index.php in any of them.

It seems you figure it out?

No, but I’m educating myself on PHP debugging, actually.
Also, had some extra work pressure over the past couple of days..
I’ll follow up with you soon.
Thank you for keeping in touch ??

Hi,

I have the same problem like YusranCorp, meaning the SEO friendly option cannot be chosen.

I am new to WP, and have no idea of the answers above.

Is there a simple way to fix this problem?
