404 on single post page

[sijones-uk]

Since version 2.1.0 I'm getting 404s on all of my single post pages for custom post types. My custom post type (wpbb_job) is defined inside another plugin (WP Broadbean) and has a rewrite slug of 'jobs'. Before v2.1.0 I was able to define the permalink as:

http://<domain>/jobs/%wpbb_job_industry%/%postname%/

where wpbb_job_industry is the taxonomy. This would be transformed into something like this:

http://<domain>/jobs/marketing/digital-marketing/project-manager/

Since v2.1.0 the permalinks are being converted correctly, but clicking on them results in a 404. Previously the correct post would be displayed.

I've narrowed the problem down to Rewrite.php, in particular where you tidied up the code in the add_hook() function and removed the add_action( 'wp_loaded', array( $this, 'add_rewrite_rules' ), 10 ); after v2.0.2. I can't work out why this is causing the 404 though.

@sijones-uk have you found any workarounds for this? I tried, but was unsuccessful. For now, are you just using an earlier release?

[sijones-uk]

@danielshields Unfortunately not, so I can't update the plugin for now, It seems to have been the removal of the line add_action( 'wp_loaded', array( $this, 'add_rewrite_rules' ), 10 ); in Rewrite.php when v2.1.0 was released that broke things. If you want to ensure that the plugin doesn't get accidentally updated you can temporarily change the "Version" in custom-post-type-permalinks.php to 999. However, that's not a good long-term strategy. I haven't found an alternative plugin that does what I need either.

I've exactly the same issue - thanks @sijones-uk for the tip to fix in the meantime!

Sorry for late reply.

Replace CPTP_Module_Rewrite use CPTP_set_rewrite_module filter.

Thanks @torounit. Will this fix be folded into the master branch?

This seems to be still open with 3.0.0?
How can I fix it? My CPT Single is suddenly a 404...

Version 3.1.1 still with this problem. :'(
I'm deactivating the plugin until this is fixed on master, so sad.
