This will be fixed in the next release.
This has been resolved in the latest plugin release.
Hi Kyle,
thanks for the update. I just checked it (v1.6.2) but it seems that the problem is still present, as the string “page” is still added as rel attribute to menu items in the Nested Pages auto-generated menu.
Moreover if I manually delete the rel “page” from the menu item, and then I go back to the Nested Pages screen, there’s a duplicate item (link, not page) with the same name of the page.
That db field is required by the plugin in menu synchronization… removing it manually essentially removes it from the sync process.
I have been unable to recreate your problem after updating (across multiple sites). The rel attribute is being removed in all of my cases.
If you have cacheing enabled, I would try reseting that. It may also help to re-sync the nav menu.
Sorry for not being clear. I noticed that the rel page was still present in the backend so I didn’t check the frontend. I confirm that in the frontend the rel attribute no longer appears so the W3C validation issue can be considered fixed. Thank you.
By the way, I am not sure it’s a good idea to use that field for syncing purposes. Why don’t you use term meta that were introduced in recent versions of WP? But that’s another story. Thank you for now.
Thank your very much for that update.
However I’m still seeing the rel=”page” links in my sites.
Tried differnt things like:
recreated the menu
Hide all pages
Hide some pages
Rearange pages
Rename menu
I’m having no clue, where to look. I don’t have any caching plugin on my site enabled.
I’m using V 1.6.5.2 of nested pages
