Lost settings when pushing from Dev environment

  • The plugin works great in my test environment, but when I push it to my live site, individual page settings stop working, even though the plugin settings for those pages show selected/deselected as expected. Global settings still work.

    This seems to be fixable by disabling/enabling, then re-selecting settings for each page, but I can’t do this every time I push my site live.

    Also, some plugins that refer to or generate additional pages stop working.

    The only thing I can think of is if the Organizer uses absolute URLs in its settings, rather than relative. Is this the case? And if so, how can I change that?

    Thanks!

    After you move it to your live environment go to the Plugin Organizer settings page and click the Recreate Permalinks tab. Then use that to update the Permalinks for all of your posts and filters.

    Heh. Of course the solution is right in front of me.

    Hypothetically, though, would using “/” as the updated url allow all permalinks to be relative?

    That’d be convenient, given how often I have to migrate.

    Thanks so much!

    That seemed to do the trick but a couple of plugins that, like I mentioned before, rely on or generate additional pages are choking.
    WP Job Manager and WordPress Download Manager specifically.

    Jobs manager has a setting that keeps it from being loaded on other pages anyways, so that problem corrects itself, but Download Manager sends me back to the index page when either page or download links are clicked.

    I’ve removed it from the global settings disable list and it’s fine, but still being loaded on all pages.

    Any insight into this would be much appreciated.
    Thanks as always!
