I am also wondering how is the Query Var field used. The link in WP plugin info page leads to a page with a link to github page which says nothing to see there.
Class.client.php seems to be the code where it’s used, starting from line 42:
// Rewrite
if ( $taxonomy['rewrite'] == 'true' ) {
$taxonomy['rewrite'] = array( 'slug' => $taxonomy['query_var'], 'with_front' => true, 'hierarchical' => false );
}
This is because of a bug in the code, if you want to restore this logic until the dev gets around to it, you should be able to edit class.client.php. I have posted changes in the gist below but here is a summary. Make sure to update your permalinks after setting the query var otherwise you might run into some issues with links not working.
to replicate how the var was being handled i first added
$taxonomy['rewrite'] = (boolean) $taxonomy['rewrite'];
above line 43
if ( $taxonomy['rewrite'] == 'true' ) {
$taxonomy['rewrite'] = array('slug' => $taxonomy['query_var'],'with_front' => true, 'hierarchical' => false);
}
which i also tweaked a bit to be
if ($taxonomy['rewrite']) {
$taxonomy['rewrite'] = array( 'slug' => $taxonomy['query_var'], 'with_front' => true, 'hierarchical' => false );
}
then removed
(boolean)
from line 56
'rewrite' => (boolean) $taxonomy['rewrite'],

How does the Query Var setting behave after this?
