Weird Permalinks

    Hi all,

    I moved our site over to multisite last week – but more so just set up an entirely new multisite and then imported our existing content in. Ever since moving over to the new multisite, my permalinks look like this https://onemillionkids.org/?v=7516fd43adaa (homepage) https://onemillionkids.org/sponsors?v=7516fd43adaa (secondary pages).

    I should mention that I’ve removed the /blog/ slug because it doesn’t really work with our web structure and we’ll never use the /blog/ slug for anything anyways.

    But why is it adding this ?v=7516fd43adaa to the end of our urls?

    Thanks!

  • My site started doing the same thing today. ?v=7516fd43adaa.

    FYI, It’s being caused by Woocommerce.

    That is totally odd! Thank you for isolating it down to WooCommerce. I’ve got an email into WooCommerce support about this issue and will report back as soon as I know something more.

    Please keep updating if you find anything else out. Maybe we can get to the bottom of this,

    Braddelaney I noticed your permalinks are working without the code did you just deactivated woocommerce?

    Any updates? I have a trouble ticket into WooCommerce, but no reply. (No surprise there.)

    Ok, so I just got a response from WooCommerce, and they tell me that this type of URL is the result of the Geolocation settings in WooCommerce. When you set the page to Geolocate with cache support here: https://cld.wthms.co/1cU59/2FfXJaEG you’ll get that type of URL.

    They say It has no negative impact on the site ( as a matter of fact it helps with faster geolocation) but if you don’t like the look of it, you can change to the standard Geolocation.

    Hope this helps!

    I have had woocommerce deactivated for the past few days. We are not ready to launch our shop so it wasn’t that big of a deal. Glad we got an answer though!

    That was it, thanks!

    Thanks for the update @braddelaney. Makes sense now. I’m not sure why my posts got deleted from this topic, but at least it’s resolved.

    Yep. That was it. Thank you.

    it IS a huge deal, as it slows down sites tremendously as measured with https://tools.pingdom.com … thus it’s better to turn it off.

    Thank you very much for posting the solution of turning off geolocation cache support. The other problem I found it was causing was that it was stopping links to external anchor links from working.
