    I already had a page with the permalink of /podcast. The plugin grabs that link and breaks it with no settings option available. I uninstalled the plugin and my page is still broken – it is redirecting my existing page to the homepage instead of displaying it.

    Hi there. If you’re still experiencing the issue with the /podcast page with the plugin deactivated I would suggest changing and resaving your permalinks. Many times this has an effect on Custom Post Type related activities.

    Additionally, you can change the /podcast slug with the information here if you’d like: https://support.castos.com/seriously-simple-podcasting-plugin/customization/modifying-podcast-urls

    Let us know how it goes.

    Same problem, stupid plugin – I have hundreds of backlinks to those podcasts, my website is losing traffic because of your stupid plugin.

    Completely broken, refuses to go to the page and I can’t rename my podcast page. Your response makes no sense and is NOT a solution.

    Try this: go to Settings>Permalinks and just click on the Save Changes button on bottom (no need to make any changes). Then go to Appearance>Menus and replace the menu item for podcast from a “page” link to “custom URL” and manually enter the podcast link page or just enter /podcast in the URL field. If you have a caching plugin, clear the cache. Then check from a new browser or clear the cookies in your browser.

    Hi @mycustomsoftware

    That’s spot on and thanks for contributing such a great answer. I chatted with the original poster in our on-site chat to resolve this as well but yes generally when dealing with most things related to Custom Post Types resaving your permalinks will do the trick.

    If either of you need anything else just let us know.
