W3T Breaks Permalinks, Uses ?p=3000 instead

  • Hi,

    I just wanted to report a problem with W3T.

    1. I am using apc for the page cache and for some reason sometimes it will not correctly output the permalinks, the same happens when I use “basic disk mode”.

    What’s the problem? Instead of a fancy permalink it will use the regular URL’s e.g. ?p=3000 instead of this-is-a-post.html

    I tried disabling minify, but that did not resolve the issue. I suppose it could be a caching problem.

    If I can somehow help track down this problem let me know. I am now downgrading to see if it resolves the problem.

    Thank you
    Oliver

  • The issue resolves when you clear the page cache, but will reappear after a while.

    This is why I haven’t updated the plugin because of the permalinks. It is altering main, most important admin WP settings. Frederick has fix apparently but it’s under the plugin paying service help, you can use it via the plugin interface in WP admin. I am considering it. I am not sure whether its developers wait for the new WP update, -> because it was said in WP news release, in the first point among others, that WP will be much faster we wont believe how, here https://www.ads-software.com/news/2011/05/wordpress-3-2-beta-1/ , I cannot wait for it. I’ve noticed many people say they are installing the WP Super Cache plugin instead.

    I posted a solution my webmasterblog.

    If you get a division by zero error in W3 Total Cache’s PGCache on line 436 (check your error_log in your apache dir) then W3 Total Cache will start using regular links like ?p=3000 instead of fancy permalinks until you clear the cache.

    For me personally the fix was to copy the original comments.php from the twentyten theme and copy it into my own comments.php

    I think it would be possible to fix this problem in W3T, but this is probably only a minor error.

    Just an update on this.

    The problem is still there. I believe it has to do with posting comments and the file wp-post-comments.php

    I upgraded to the lastest W3 total cache but still.. will probably switch to supercache again and try to find the problem
