#8908: 2.7 Upgrade Broken Permalinks
--------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
Reporter: php4ever | Owner: ryan
Type: defect (bug) | Status: new
Priority: high | Milestone: 2.7.1
Component: Permalinks | Version: 2.7
Severity: major | Keywords: Static Page, Permalinks
--------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
I set this to '''MAJOR''' only because of the issue with URLs changing
causing massive 404s
I'll try and be as clear as I can.
In WP, when using the feature under Reading Settings >> Front page
displays I notice that all previous sites I had upgraded to 2.7 broke the
URL structure that had been in place.
For instance, with "A static page (select below)" Selected and both Home
Page and Posts Page set to a specific "PAGE" the permalink URL changes
after upgrade.
Front page: Home
Posts page: Blog
Where the URL use to be http://www.domainname.com/blog/post/ or
/blog/post.html
After the update, the "single" no longer has /blog/ in the URL
Permalinks are set as follows;
/%postname%/ or simply /%postname%.html
This has happened on all sites I upgraded to WP 2.7
