Michael, thank you.

The WordPress managed hosting company I use helped me resolve it, with help from your notes on this thread.

Thank you for being a developer who helps the people who uses his plugin. Your plugin does make me a little nervous, but my clients love it.

I feel like your telling me I have to jump in the ocean and you’re holding my head down and you’re just saying, “just see if you survive.”

I will practice on a development site, but it sounds like I’m going to have to reset the Permalinks, then if it resets successfully, hope for the same on my law firm website? The one that pays me 25 percent of my living and is getting high visibility this month for a blog that was written? It’s not fair really. I wouldn’t have let the development team use your plugin if I had known it was going to be like this. I would have just used a theme with a good shortcode.

I’ll let you know. Thank you.

I appreciate that, Michael.

So I had to reset my test site without following your instructions. I had a client issue and we needed it.

So where does this leave me? Should I just not update it on my site and wait until the next update?

I don’t think this route is for me over the long term because of my skill level. But I think I’m going to be using the post plugin for at least another year.

What is happening is I have 5 lawyer bios posted to a main “Attorneys” page. The posts are appearing on the main page, but when I click on Lawyer A’s bio, then I get a 401 Error Reading. And all the rest.

I’m not sure what you mean by “flush your rewrite rules.” I just updated on my staging site as I said – and I’ll leave my real live site on the old plugin. So I’m safe – just concerned because I use the plugin and like it a lot.

Thanks!

Add my name to the list of developers who lost their custom posts with this latest upgrade.

So it sounds like I should just revert to the old plugin and a past version of my site and hope this is fixed for the next update?

This has happened in twice in the past and I set up a staging site to test for problems. While it has been disruptive, I’ve always been able to fix it within an hour. Not this one.

Thank you for any feedback.
