Pagination on static Post page not working after changing Permalink Catagory Base

[jokr1985]

Dear WP team,

when I use a custom structure like: /news/%postname%/ + additionally set the catgory base to news, the pagination will not work on the static post page - it returns a 404 error. I'm also not able to open the archives for the tags anymore (404).

I was able to reproduce this issue on a fresh WP installation with 4.9.5.

I was neither able to find a solution in support forum nor a ticket addressing this bug.

Kind regards
Jo

Hey, Jo. Welcome to Trac!

I tried reproducing on the nightly version of WordPress, but I'm probably messing the setup. Can you please compile a list of exact instructions for the nightly version from a fresh install up to reproducing the issue (everything, including what posts to create, what no name them, etc.)

Thanks.

Hi,

that's what I did.

You can download the zip files with Setup and steps to reproduce from here: ​http://ge.tt/6haK2Rp2

Hi @jokr1985,

I have just come across your ticket now, and I have tested setting up permalinks as you suggested and this appears to be working within the latest releases of WordPress.

Are you still being afflicted by this issue, and if so are you able to provide us with more details about this? Also I wonder if there is something different about your setup that could be affecting this? Are you able to install the following ​Test Reports plugin, and generate a bug report so we can see if there is issue is related to a plugin / theme on the site? This will give us a much better understanding of what is going on here, and then the community and myself can assist you much better here. 😃
