[wp-testers] custom post type permalinks

[Frank Bueltge]

I had build a another test with the custom post types. The goal is 3
post_types with the same categories, like a CMS function.

my source:

add_filter( 'pre_get_posts', 'fb_get_posts' );
function fb_get_posts( $query ) {
    if ( is_home() || is_front_page() )
        $query->set( 'post_type', array( 'post', 'iphone' ) );

    return $query;
}

add_action( 'init', 'fb_create_post_types', 0 );
function fb_create_post_types() {

    $labels = array(
        'name' => _x( 'iPhones', 'post type general name' ),
        'singular_name' => _x( 'iPhone', 'post type singular name' ),
        'add_new' => _x( 'Add New', 'iphone' ),
        'add_new_item' => __( 'Add New iPhone' ),
        'edit' => _x( 'Edit', 'iphone' ),
        'edit_item' => __( 'Edit iPhone' ),
        'new_item' => __( 'New iPhone' ),
        'view' => __( 'View iPhone' ),
        'view_item' => __( 'View iPhones' ),
        'search_items' => __( 'Search iPhones' ),
        'not_found' => __( 'No iPhones found' ),
        'not_found_in_trash' => __( 'No iPhones found in Trash' ),
        'parent' => __( 'Parent iPhone' )
    );

    $args = array(
        'labels' => $labels,
        'public' => true,
        'publicly_queryable' => true,
        'show_ui' => true,
        '_builtin' => false,
        'capability_type' => 'post',
        'hierarchical' => false,
        'rewrite' => array('slug' => 'iphone', 'with_front' => true ), //
Permalink
        'query_var' => true, // 'iphone', // for WP_Query Schema
        'taxonomies' => array('category'),
        'menu_position' => 5,
        'supports' => array( 'title', 'editor', 'author', 'excerpt',
'trackbacks', 'custom-fields', 'comments', 'revisions', 'thumbnail',
'page-attributes' ),
        'show_in_nav_menus' => true,
        'menu_icon' => get_stylesheet_directory_uri() .
'/postnavimages/iphone.png',
    );
    register_post_type( 'iphone', $args);
}

so it is possible to use all categories in all post_types, on my example
only one - iphone :), only a test

works fine without active permalinks and not with active permalinks. It is
not possible to vie the single-post. Also dosnt work the archive.

Please - is this a bug or a an error on my source.
Thanks for reply and time.

Best regards
Frank
