Looking at the code on lines 103 and 113, the latest update would require at least PHP 5.4. If you’re able to update to 5.4 it should work for you.

I manage 9 different WordPress installations at HostGator. After the WAF setup failed on 3 of the sites I started comparing their settings. All of the sites that failed were using PHP 5.2 while those that succeeded were set to at least PHP 5.3. After updating to PHP 5.3 I was able to successfully complete the WAF setup.

Yes, I believe so. I’m currently running 0.9.8.6 with that filter re-enabled on all my sites and category archives are functioning as expected. Hopefully we’ll hear from the plugin author soon…

Took another quick look at the commits on GitHub and noticed the following commented-out code in loader.php starting with version 0.9.8.4:

// Enable archives for custom post types
// add_filter('request', 'CCTM::request_filter');

Re-enabling the code in 0.9.8.6 restores the archive functionality. Not sure if this was an oversight or not. Any ideas would be welcome…

Tested every version from 0.9.7.11 on and 0.9.8.3 is the last version for functioning categories on my sites. Must be related to the lone fix listed in the 0.9.8.4 Changelog: Fixed problem with hierarchical post-types (https://code.google.com/p/wordpress-custom-content-type-manager/issues/detail?id=534)

Attempted to fix myself but couldn’t spare the time so I’m back to 0.9.8.3 for now.

Note: You can manually change the version number on your 0.9.8.3 plugin installation to 0.9.8.6 so you won’t be bothered to upgrade until the next version hits the channel…
