[theme-reviewers] Fwd: [WordPress Themes] #3553: THEME: The Common Blog - 1.0

[Taryn Wallis]

In one of the themes I reviewed (
http://themes.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3553<http://themes.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3553#comment:6>
), I noted that the post with no title wasn't showing up in the blog and
gave a 404 error when I tried to access it directly (via the 'view post'
link in the Posts screen).

The theme author has written the response below detailing a bug he found -
has anyone come across this before?

Thanks for your help!

Comment (by plebeian.se):

 Regarding "(no title) post not displayed and gives 404 error", I switched
 to Twentyten and noticed that it had the same error. After some testing I
 discovered that if you set your permalink structure to "Month and name",
 and you have a low post id, WordPress takes the post id as a date.

 Example:
 An empty post with id number 14, posted on the 4th march 2011, will get
 permalink /2011/03/14/, if you have "Month and name".
 This will give a 404 if you have no posts posted on the 14th of march
 2011. And it will give an "day archive" for the 14th of march 2011 if you
 have any other posts on that specific date.
 If you change this to "Day and name" instead the post permalink will be
 /2011/03/04/14/ and the post is found.

 Ive changed my common settings to "Day and name" and you can see that it
 works here:

 And like I said, Twentyten has the exact same "bug".

 If the post ID is bigger, like 403 or something, this problem doesn't
 exist. Basically, I think it's not a problem as long as the post id is
 bigger then the number of dates in the specific month of that post. A post
 id 31 will work if posted in February. But not in march.


 Do I still need to fix this? :)
