As I mentioned in my comment, the date rewrite rule is picking up your post permalink and trying to load a year archive instead of your single post. Since it appears you don’t use date URLs on your site, you can change the date structure so it no longer clashes. Add this to your theme’s … Read more
You can override the Post type object settings in the init action and register the proper values for the archive and rewrites: add_action(‘init’, ‘my_init’); function my_init() { $args = objectToArray( get_post_type_object(‘post’) ); $args[‘has_archive’] = ‘news’; $args[‘rewrite’] = array( ‘slug’ => ‘news’, ‘with_front’ => FALSE, ); register_post_type(‘post’, $args); } function objectToArray( $object ) { if( !is_object( … Read more

Note one Important thing to the above answer: While it’ll work fine from the first sight it will cause performance problems. All this code will be called on init hook so every page load will cause it to run and flush_rules() is very time expensive. So it’s recomended to call flush rules upon theme\plugin activation … Read more
Try using the following for your rewrite rules: location / { try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php$is_args$args; } Using that schema, you can manually remove index.php from your Permalinks settings without breaking anything. Nginx will now check any URI for its existence as a file on the filesystem, and then a directory on the filesystem, and if … Read more
While the solutions provided here do still work, WordPress has evolved since and does now (since 3.3, I believe) provide direct hooks for theme activation. after_switch_theme will fire on theme activation and switch_theme before deactivating an old theme. Hence the up-to-date answer is: function reflush_rules() { global $wp_rewrite; $wp_rewrite->flush_rules(); } add_action( ‘after_switch_theme’, ‘reflush_rules’ );
IMO It is rarely a good idea to evaluate shortcodes outside of the specific post page as too many times you need the context for either the evaluation itself or styling. Your problem is most likely related to the use of the_post and wp_reset_postdata. What is exactly the post being reset to in that case? … Read more
WordPress doesn’t know that you want the path /searchmyblog/ as search result base. So when it sees the a it tries to find the best match – in your case a post starting with this letter. To fix that you could modify my code for the pagination base to change the search base: if ( … Read more
It’s not your permalink settings, it’s the fact that foo.jpg was uploaded first and “stole” the slug foo – you need to change it to something else, then set your page slug. Go to Media > foo.jpg > Edit (if you are in grid view, you need to go to “Edit more details”) From this … Read more
Create a custom taxonomy quoteauthor, activate pretty permalinks, and you get nice URIs automatically. These URIs will not put the author’s name right behind the root, but something like /qa/steve-stevenson/ should be good enough. Here is a sample code as a plugin, you can download it on GitHub <?php # -*- coding: utf-8 -*- /* … Read more
