+1 with this problem. 3.0, swedish, upgraded from 2.9.2

I realised: you dont have to destroy your permalink structure.

if your post is in category ‘calendar’, just point the link to yoursite/calendar/post-title

I have the Events calendar – AND a working link. horraaay! ??

This would be really sweet. Ivé made some modifications to my calendar and this is the last one I need in order for it behave as I want.

The problem is that the events has no connection to any post in the Database. Thus, ID and Title handed out cannot be used.

A somewhat ugly solution is (ab)using the permalink structure. If you put the post in a category that you exclude from showing in the main blog feed you can then use $title and transform i.e “My event 3” to “my-event-3”, and then just echo it with an a href=www.yoursite.com/a-non-date-based-permalink-structure/my-event-3

Doing something like that could work.. if someone could hack the wp title-to-permalink function it’s solved. ??

1) OS your WP 2.5 install is on
FreeBSD 5.3

2) Version and type of webserver
MySQL 5.0.45
Apache, not sure what v. and don’t have the energy or time to find out ??

3) Version of php
4.4.8

4) Do you have an .htaccess file at wp-admin/.htaccess
Yes

5) Do you have .htaccess elsewhere
No

6) Are you password protecting the entire wp-admin directory, or does your host or cpanel have this turned on?
no

update:
I put the .htaccess file with “SetEnvIfNoCase Request_URI ^/wp-admin/async-upload.php$ MODSEC_ENABLE=Off” in /wp-admin instead of / and tried the media uploader, and to my big surprise, it worked even with permalinks turned on! This is indeed a happy moment. ??

Adding the ‘SetEnvIfNoCase Request_URI ^/wp-admin/async-upload.php$ MODSEC_ENABLE=Off’ line to .htaccess DOES WORK if PERMALINKS is turned OFF, otherwise I′m back to square one. This is really annoying, since I use wp more as a cms than a blog.

Anyhow: 2.5 is really awesome and I think that it is the next natural step from 2.3.3. When posting to multiple sites the media uploader will save me huge amounts of time – If it worked, that is ;).

I also have this error.. argh. Will follow this thread and try hacking with a sandboxed 2.5 and see if I can get it to work. And I agree; People will abandon 2.5 if this feature doesn’t work. I’m running 2.3.3 on all my blogs ??
