Okay, I installed the Hotfix plugin and it appears to have resolved the incorrect badge number issue. So hopefully whatever it fixed gets resolved in WP 3.3.2

I still can’t figure this out.

Again, this works fine on my development site but not on my actual site.

Here are a couple of screen captures. Exact same Youtube Videos settings.

I posted the start of this thread above just in case anyone else had come across this problem. I had my parter attempt to replicate what she did to cause the problem via a new post on a test site we have but it posted fine with no errors. Here’s the actual website we run. It’s not a blog so we don’t have a lot of time to stop and experiment with test posts on it: http://www.hawaii247.com

I don’t think she replicated her steps exactly to try to cause the problem again.

At this time I’m going to mark this as resolved as I consider it to be some kind of fluke.

Note that I’m about 100 miles away from my partner who came across this problem on our website, it’s not like I can walk up to her and ask her to show me the steps she did. Also when I posted the start of this thread it was about 1 a.m. in the morning and I was about ready to go to sleep after a long day.

If we come across this issued again I’ll repost with some screen captures and maybe some screen video. It’s unlikely we’d leave some awful formatted post on our site just so folks can look at it for hours to dissect.

A big problem with the sitemaps is that some posts I have are UserGenerated and some are PressRelease and others are Opinion.

This plugin only allows a blanket genre for all posts, not post specific 🙁

Okay, tried modifying the code, still doesn’t quite work. Here’s what I come up with.

For functions.php

//START Custom Taxonomy for Genres
add_action( 'init', 'create_my_genres' );
function create_my_genres() {
 $labels = array(
    'name' => _x( 'Genres', 'taxonomy general name' ),
    'singular_name' => _x( 'Genre', 'taxonomy singular name' ),
    'search_items' =>  __( 'Search Genres' ),
    'all_items' => __( 'All Genres' ),
    'parent_item' => __( 'Parent Genre' ),
    'parent_item_colon' => __( 'Parent Genre:' ),
    'edit_item' => __( 'Edit Genre' ),
    'update_item' => __( 'Update Genre' ),
    'add_new_item' => __( 'Add New Genre' ),
    'new_item_name' => __( 'New Genre' ),
  ); 	

register_taxonomy('genre', 'post', array(
  'hierarchical' => true,
  'labels' => $labels
));
}
//END Custom Taxonomy for Genres

And for the plugin file:

//START GENRES
	        $xmlOutput.= "\t\t\t<news:genres>";
		$xmlOutput.= strip_tags( get_the_term_list( $post->ID, 'genre', '', '', '' ) );
		$xmlOutput.= "</news:genres>\n";
		//END GENRES

It now pulls Genres and outputs without the hyperlinking. The problem is that it isn’t post specific and it just pulls the genre for the last published post, tagging every single post with that genre in the sitemap.

Still stumped. I tried contacting the plugin author with no response which is why I tried taking this on myself.
