Patch

  • Attached as patch_draft_child_post_link.diff.
  • Fix the get_page_uri() function with an extra conditional to skip post_name when empty.

Background

  • In the BU Navigation plugin unit tests, we have a test to generate a draft page and then a published child post. In the test, bu-navigation ends up generating a URL more correct (without the double slash), mostly due to the above patched check we have in a custom function.
  • This behavior was previously reported in #7915 when it was marked worksforme.

It's worth noting that this problem only appears when the draft parent post does not have a slug.

This means if you publish a parent post, publish a child post of it, and then unpublish its parent, the issue does not appear because the draft parent will have a slug. Thus, it's difficult to reproduce in the admin area because the user needs to explicitly remove the parent post's slug when switching it back to draft.
