Check whether the posts not being redirected actually have the correct permalink stored in the DB. There’s a bug in which canonicals can’t be properly guessed because the permalink structure was CHANGED after the post was created. Try either creating a new post with your current permalink structure, or editing the post_name DB field for … Read more

It is okay that the URL changes to http://mysite.com/contact/#rocket, but you should change the way you are defining your anchor on the target page. Instead of using this method <a name=”rocket”></a> <div> <h3>The Title</h3> <p>some text</p> </div> You should add an ID to the content you want to jump to like this: <div id=”rocket”> <h3>The … Read more
The redirect is thanks to redirect_canonical() – we can simply swoop in with a filter and disable it for the front page: function wpse_184163_disable_canonical_front_page( $redirect ) { if ( is_page() && $front_page = get_option( ‘page_on_front’ ) ) { if ( is_page( $front_page ) ) $redirect = false; } return $redirect; } add_filter( ‘redirect_canonical’, ‘wpse_184163_disable_canonical_front_page’ ); … Read more
The problem comes with using only numbers as URLs. Here is a forum thread in WP that discuss this issue. I’ll cite Otto: WordPress 2.3 and up does not allow the post or page slugs to be all numeric. This is because that URL scheme will conflict with multi-page posts. There is no fix. Change … Read more

(code not tested) <?php function sanitize_title_with_underscores( $title ) { return … Read more
Providing you know what you’re doing that shouldn’t be a problem. You will however have to check that any author/user pages you may have are linked by id rather than name in the code: $data = get_userdata( $userid ); As opposed to $data = get_userdata(‘Admin’); Because the ID will never change (unless you delete the … Read more
Why? I think the reason why a) domain.com/123 is not redirected back to b) domain.com/123/post-slug with the /%post_id%/%postname%/ permalinks settings, is that the matched rule is: [matched_rule] => ([0-9]+)(/[0-9]+)?/?$ You can get that information from the global $wp object. There are other useful informations in $wpavailable after the wp action: Example (post): domain.com/123/post-slug/ [query_vars] => … Read more
