So this has happened a few times now and i’m not sure how! For example, a lady today commented on an old post to Facebook for an old and now defunct listing (yard and listing no longer available on the site or GD database). Howeverm, rather than just click on the link and get a ‘page not found’ message, it has linked to a menu of blog posts. But not the same as if you were to view it on the site! The link is (http://www.liverylist.co.uk/?p=view-user&id=1310) which i believe is one from before we switched to the WordPress GD site because now all permalinks include the listing title, but don’t understand how it randomly links to the blog page whose link is in no way similar (and a page of the blogs I’ve never seen it laid out like before!), rather than just a ‘page not found’ message?! Any ideas?

Hi,

probaby that post id is 1310 and WP thinks that’s the page to show.

However this has nothing to do with GeoDirectory, I’m sorry, but I don’t know how we could help…

Thanks
