plugin affects permalink structure?

    Installed wp-publications succesfully. Works as specified.

    But I had selected that my permalink structure should have the ‘day and name’ structure (under Settings/Permalinks), and after installing wp-publications WordPress was not able to display any of my pages. This was unsettling! In a blog post on internet I found a suggestion to revert to the standard permalink structure (in which pages show as ?p=123), and that restored my website functionality.

    However, I am not very happy with this situation. Why does wp-publications affect the permalink structure? Can this be avoided? Can my website be reverted to the ‘day and name’ structure? (I found that even uninstalling wp-publications does not allow me to revert to the ‘day and name’ structure, as wordpress cannot find my pages that way.)

    Pleae help!

    I may have found a solution. I commented out the line
    flush_rewrite_rules();
    in plugin.php
    Apperently, this allows me to reinstate the ‘day and name’ permalink structure, and wp-publications still works. At least, I hope so.
    Is there any functionality that is affected by this solution?

    Thanks a lot for the workaround.
