[wp-testers] WP 3.0x Pagination problem

[Philip M. Hofer (Frumph)]

If you can check inside the index.php of the wootheme and look how they do 
the loop, whether its the provided one on the normal page load or they 
remake it, that would be great.  I know from experience that remade loops 
will always have a problem with pagination if not done right.  For example 
the *only* way remade loops will work with pagination *if* you have multiple 
loops on the same page is to make the non-main loops use a new WP_Query so 
if wootheme is doing multiple loops they probably should be save/restoring 
the original $wp_query/$post around any alternative loops it does.   I've 
seen this on a few multimedia embedded themes that have more then one loop 
generated once too often.

Have you tried with a different theme and all plugins turned off?

Hi Philip.

Nothing special. Fresh install add "Spectrum" theme from Whootheme and error
occurs. Also, I can't make it work again even with the default theme even if
I uninstall the Spectrum theme.

On a side note, I just tested it on another server using the same WAMP
configuration (only changes are versions) and it works well what makes me
think that is not a problem of WP but also not a problem of my server... I
think there can be some sort of "unstabilty" in the WP pagination code that
makes it work only in perfect server conditions which is not the case of
many hosting services.

Only differences of both servers I used is that one (where pagination
doesn't work propperly) is in another computer on my LAN running PHP 5.3.1
and the second server (where it works) is on my machine running PHP 5.3.0.
Could it be a problem of WP + PHP 5.3.1?

Thanks again,
