frontpage stuck on arbitrary post

Try resetting your permalinks?

Yea I tried that and it created a 404 back to that “a-lil” chat link. Same thing happens when I:

1. Unpublish the article
2. Also happens with stock theme
3. couldnt find anything obvious in .htaccess.

I am truly stumped!

Rename .htaccess and change back to default permalinks?

progress!

redirects to: https://truechiptilldeath.com/2010/05/a-lil-chat-with-bleepstreet/

But i still see my newer posts.. If i set it to the other permalink the problem returns.

htacces is renamed.

Okay! So we’re getting closer ??

Can you share the FULL content of your .htaccess file?

Thanks for the help so far

Right now its:

# BEGIN WordPress

# END WordPress

It was

RewriteEngine on

# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>

# END WordPress
https://truechiptilldeath.com/ [R,NC]

Try JUST this:

# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress

No dice, i still have the stuck post in the url, andcannot select the /%year%/%monthnum%/%postname%/ without the stuck post.

This may be useful. I had this problem with another post before the issue arose, restored a backup, and then completed the psot again with a different name (but same content) and the error returned. Perhaps beta 2 doesnt like one of the embeds and it rewrote something as pertains tot he permalinks.

I jsut figured it out.. redirection plugin wasnt working properly on the beta.. disabled and all is well. Thanks for your help!

Ipstenu – thanks for all your help.. if youd like a thsirt.. hit me up on my site!

Thanks for this, I had the same exact issue. It was the Redirection plugin!

I can confirm this. The Redirection plugin version 2.1.25, the current one, doesn’t play well with WordPress 3.0-beta-14792.
