I guess my question is if you change the permalinks from one thing to another, does WordPress do the redirecting automatically. For example, if a site was linking to post on my site before I change the permalink and a user clicks on that “old permalink structure” will the user see a 404 page or be automatically forwarded to the link structure automatically?

Mine is also not working. Since I cannot see the help screen, I cannot get rid of the “Please configure YOURLS – WordPress to Twitter settings now” at the top of my admin.

I found the answer. the get_related_posts function was found in the functions.php file where I had to edit the code to exclude the id of the tag.

$args = wp_parse_args($args, array(
		'showposts' => 4,
		'post_type' => $post_types,
		'post__not_in' => array($post_id),
		'tag__in' => $tagsA,
		'tag__not_in' => 795,
		'ignore_sticky_posts' => 1,
	));

I believe I just need to change this line:

<?php $image = wp_get_attachment_image_src(get_post_thumbnail_id($post->ID), 'widget-image'); ?>

To something like this (but it doesn’t work, I think it’s because it’s outside the loop):

<?php $image = get_post_meta($postid, 'Thumbnail', true); ?>

Any help would be great!

Sorry, here is the entire code of that widget page (in case you want to see everything that is going on).

I may have fixed the problem (at least temporarily).

I deactivated all plug-ins and then reactivated them. For some reason that fixed the issue. All my categories and tags showed up in posts again.

I wonder why simply deactivate and reactivate worked?

True, I figured deactivating them all then turning back on one by one would work too but each time I reactivated one the site kept on working!

I have not turned yours back on. I am a little scared! Haha. It is almost as if something with the logging or reporting overnight messed something up. Really bizarre so hard to say for sure. Not saying it is your plugin though!

I think what I will do is leave it alone. See if I run into any issues overnight again. If not, then I will reactivate your plugin and wait to see if anything breaks at all and test it overnight again.

I deactivated all my plugins and everything magically worked, I say magically because I then reactivated all the plugins I had on before (aside from yours) and everything still worked.

Do you have any idea of why deactivating all then reactivating them fixed everything? To me that makes no sense.

With it deactivated I tried to edit a post and add in a post Tag, it still wouldn’t save when I tried to Save Draft. The tags that I enter then just disappear at that point.

Thanks for quick response!

1) Nothing much changes. The posts still have no Categories assigned to them or Tags. The search doesn’t work either.

2) WordPress 3.2.1.

3) Version 2.5.3

4) PHP Version 5.2.17 (MySQL 5.1.56)

5) Not sure. I believe they were, the stats showed results when I had that plugin activated.

One thing I did notice is that if I take out the permalink of /reviews/ out of the URL it works for the orderby one.

So it works now without the permalink;

But this still does not work, even without the permalink;

Well, I am no SEO expert but I think the reason to be concerned about that is because of content duplication?

I would also like to know the answer as well. My site shows up in Google with all the /page/2/, /page/3/, etc. and I am wondering if some of the noindex settings would help.

Thanks.

Also, if I check the box that says Use noindex for Archives, does it still spider that page and just not index it, or does it not see that page at all (text, links on that page)?

I completely deactivated it and deleted the files from the plugin’s folder. Then re-put all the files for 1.5b back in and when I went to Add in a taxonomy it was all pre-filled in with my previous settings. It must be saved in the database or something. But I deleted that taxonomy and re-entered the info. Still no luck.

Also, I did notice that when I first check the box Numeric, when I hit save it automatically unchecked it when I saved it. But when I clicked the checkbox again, it looked like it saved it.

Is this an issue with having 1.4 installed first? I did completely remove the old 1.4 folder before installing the 1.5b.
