Thanks, Daniel… I’ll try to test that out this week. I’ll report back.

Cheers, Marco. Thanks for the response. I’ll keep an eye on the plugin.

I’ll give it another try today (start to finish, from export to install, just to make sure everything is as perfect as possible) and if it fails again, I’ll shoot that installer-txt.log over to you.

Thanks!

Extra info — stopping the data replacement process after eight hours and trying to access the site results in an error:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function wp() in *****/wp-blog-header.php on line 14

That might help…?

Bump. Anyone have any ideas? Resources that address this question specifically?

Thanks!

Seconded! Very keen to figure this out. Thanks!

Thanks… but man, it’s irritating. I guess we’ll live with it for now. Otto suggests that this might be rectified in 3.3. Hope so!

Thanks again.

Thanks; I’ve seen those… but the thing is, the site has been behaving fine for over a year with category in the custom permalink. What would cause this issue now? And why does the site behave fine with the /%postname%/ custom structure but not %category%… and again, why just now?

Could there be something in my theme files causing it to misbehave when the category is used for custom permalinks?

Thanks again,

Matt

Hi Esmi… as I wrote, I reverted to the default permalinks and that fixed it… but re-doing permalinks (even from a blank .htaccess file) with the custom setting I want (%category%) results in the incorrect behavior.

Note that if I try another custom setting — say, %postname% — it works like it should. What is it about the %category% custom permalink structure that might be causing this problem, I wonder… and why now?

Thanks for any insight,

Matt

Hi Esmi — I have this in my theme’s index.php:

if ( is_home() ) {
query_posts($query_string . '&cat=-18');
}

I think the issue is certainly permalinks. On default, the older / newer links worked fine:

https://www.retroland.com/?cat=3%2F&paged=2

Returning to what we normally use, %category%, causes the link to become:

https://www.retroland.com/toys/page/2

which doesn’t work.

Thanks for the tip… any ideas on resolution?

Thanks again,

Matt

Krystofo, how did you WordPress / Mediawiki integration go? I’d love to hear what you did — documentation around the web for single-login integration is around, but nothing seems to address the current versions of either application. Thanks!

You got it, esmi! Worked great! Thank you.

Hi esmi — thanks for your response.

Thing is, I’m using a child theme of Twenty Ten — the child theme is using Twenty Ten’s index.php. I’ve uploaded it anyway, just in case:

For fun, here is the loop.php I’m using in my child theme:

Perhaps that will help.

Thanks so much!

Hm… yeah, I could poke around in the database. I confess I was hoping there might exist a more convenient, maybe plugin-based, solution. Thanks for the suggestion, though! Now I know what column to look in…

I’m having the same problem. What plugin caused the problem?

Thanks!
