    Thanks for making this plugin available.

    I hope to get this working but have been running into an issue wherein whenever I activate the WC-Vendors plugin my homepage results in redirect loop error.

    The error goes away when I do one of the following:
    1. Disable this plugin 🙁
    2. Disable permalinks

    Any pointers would be appreciated. Thanks again.

    Hi JDoe, thanks for trying out WC Vendors. I’m sure we’ll be able to help with whatever problem this is.

    WC Vendors doesnt have any redirects. However, it does require Permalinks to be enabled.

    Try this:

    1.) Open your Permalinks (wp-admin / Settings / Permalinks) and for Common Settings try “Date and name” (or any of them, really). Then under “Product permalink base” set it to “Shop Base with category”.

    2.) Activate WC Vendors

    3.) In wp-admin / WooCommerce / WC Vendors / Vendor shop page — make sure this is set to something you like, such as “vendors” without the quotes.

    4.) In wp-admin / WooCommerce / WC Vendors / Pages — make sure the Vendor Dashboard is set to the vendor dashboard page.

    5.) In wp-admin / WooCommerce / Settings / Products — make sure the Product Archive / Shop Page is set to “Shop”

    6.) in wp-admin / WooCommerce / Settings / Accounts — make sure the My Account page is set to “Dashboard”.

    If that doesnt work, please open a new thread with details on http://www.wcvendors.com in the Help forum!

    Regards,

    Ben

    The kind of support the plugin authors are extending is super impressive. Thanks Ben.

    I tried the above steps but still didn’t work. I’ll open a new thread on the wcvendors.com help forum as suggested.

    Just in case it might help others, disabling canonical redirect helped.
    This worked in my case after lot of trial and error, googling and spending almost the entire day going back and forth with Ben the plugin author.

    http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/redirect_canonical

    remove_filter('template_redirect', 'redirect_canonical');

    Here is where I found the workaround:

    Thanks, I wish I can use this great plugin smoothly.

    I was having the same redirect loop error issue and adding that line

    ” remove_filter(‘template_redirect’, ‘redirect_canonical’); “

    to the functions.php file of the theme just solved my problem!!!!!

    But Now I am having 404 error after clicking “Sold by: XXX Vendor”, can anyone help me on that??

    Thanks in advance.
