[Plugin: Advanced Permalinks] Broken Feeds Fix

Lots of people have been having problems with the feeds when using this plugin, myself included. I have a work-around that works for me.

Or, if you want to manually modify the plugin, open up the advanced-permalinks.php file in the editor, and change the contents of the parse_request function to be:

/**
 * Hook into the 'parse_request' action and check if our rewrite rules require a redirection
 *
 * @param array $vars Variables
 * @return array Variables
 **/

function parse_request ($vars)
{
	// Have we triggered a redirect?
	if (isset ($vars->query_vars['redirect']))
	{
		$didRedirect = false;
		if (isset ($vars->query_vars['author_name'])){
			wp_redirect (get_author_posts_url (0, $vars->query_vars['author_name']));
			$didRedirect = true;
		}
		else if (isset ($vars->query_vars['category_name'])){
			wp_redirect (get_category_link (get_category_by_path ($vars->query_vars['category_name'])));
			$didRedirect = true;
		}

		if($didRedirect)
			die();
	}

	// Workaround for WP 2.3
	global $wp_db_version;
	if ($wp_db_version > 6000 && isset ($vars->query_vars['category_name']))
	{
		$vars->query_vars['category_name'] = str_replace ('.html', '', $vars->query_vars['category_name']);
		$vars->matched_query               = str_replace ('.html', '', $vars->matched_query);
	}

	return $vars;
}
