ed4beckyI wrote a shortcode that presents the user with a form. I have the form post back to the same page. So
http://somesite/?page_id=36 Takes the user to the page with the shortcode, and the user sees a form.
user fills out form and selects the submit button
form is posted back to http://somesite/?page_id=36.
shortcode code gets exercised again, this time processing the form.
I have an edit for some fields in the shortcode code, and if it fails, an error is added to the form. This all actually works well.
If I pass validation, instead of re-presenting the user with the filled out form page as it should, I get a "query not able to find posts matching..."
What I discovered is that instead of going back to http://somesite/?page_id=36 and using the assigned custom template, single.php is being used. But this is a page, not a post.
I am having trouble tracking down where the error is occurring in template selection, or why. I have gone as far as to comment out most or all the code that get exercised if the form passes validation, but the error still occurs.
Suggestions?
