What permalink structure are you using? Currently it only supports %postname%

This is a tricky one, I had exactly the same problem but after a lot of debugging and troubleshooting I managed to fix it.

The trick is to add a new rewrite rule

function book_rewrite_rule() {
	add_rewrite_rule('(.*?)$', 'index.php?book=$matches[1]', 'top');
}
add_action('after_theme_setup', 'book_rewrite_rule');

I posted on my blog a step by step guide: https://www.ultimatewebtips.com/remove-slug-from-custom-post-type/

Hope that’s what you looking for

/wordpress/wp-admin/async-upload.php returns a 500 response code

That means that PHP is creating a fatal error in that file, and that page is accessed by the flash so you wont see anything on your screen more then “Http error”.

Make sure you log the errors into a file to debug.

You are correct to give the full windows path “D:\……\php_errors.log”

If you dont get that to work try this:

ini_set( “log_errors” , “1”);
ini_set( “error_log” , “error_file.log” );

Sorry, change error_display to error_reporting ..

Are you showing errors?

I can see that you have PHP 5.3, there are a lot of deprecated functions that gives an E_DEPRECATED.

Add following 2 lines to functions.php in your theme

ini_set(‘display_errors’, 1);
error_display(E_ALL ^ E_NOTICE);

I know that wp-settings has some issues with PHP 5.3

If you need help tracking your errors, read more about it here:

I can think of a couple of things:

1. If you are running wp-admin in https with an invalid certificate you can get this error.

2. If you running WP in MU mode there is a value you need to update in wp_X_options, check for option_name = “fileupload_url” and update to your local URL

3. Check permissions, but you probably already done that ??
