Pods page as front page, detail link not working

0

Hi guys. Have a following problem - created a pods list page as WP page with its own WP template. Then there is also a detail page, also as a WP template, accessed via pods_url_variable. When using the list page as a normal WP page, everything works just fine, but when I set that particular list page as a front page under WP "Reading" section, detail page does not work any more, for example:

Working way: www.mysite.com/list/detail

When set as static front page and trying to access detail page, it becomes:

www.mysite.com/detail

It removes /list/ page from the url so obviously pods_url_variable does not work. My permalink structure is set to Month and name (/%year%/%monthnum%/%postname%/), using WP 3.2.1 and Pods 1.10.1.

Would appreciate any ideas so that I can get pods content and detail pages on the front page working correctly. Thanks.

Very interesting issue, I'll look around and see what I can find out as a workaround for this. Anyone else is free to jump in with their ideas too.

Hey enso,

How about using Simple 301 Redirects plugin for this?

Simply from "Settings" -> "301 Redirects", type /detail in the left textbox (Request), and then type http://www.mysite.com/list/detail in the right textbox (Destination), and click "Save Changes" button to add that redirect. It means: redirect the www.mysite.com/detail to www.mysite.com/list/detail

Thanks for tip. It actually worked for me - not in a way you suggested, because /list/detail/ links are dynamic. But I just used this plugin instead of WP "Discussion" setting for front page and just redirected the whole site to my desired WP page. This way, all links are working. Thanks once again! – enso Aug 9 '11 at 1:18
