[theme-reviewers] Listing no-title page with month-name permalink structure

Wed Aug 3 12:30:14 UTC 2011

Argh... Changeset after your last suggestion.

1) I have added a new post with no title while using month-name structure.
Listing /2011/08/707 worked as expected.

2) Got back to ugly structure, published new titleless, then back to
month-name, permalink structure was /2011/08/708 automatically changed and
it worked fine.

3) Got back to 133 post and it still didn't work.

So I suspect 4 cases:

a) my local install somehow has broken (although it works great normally)
b) there is some conflict for post 133 with other posts (somehow)
c) importer has issues importing posts with no title
d) there is some plugin conflicting (though I use only theme checkers)

I will try with a brand new install on another host later this week and see
what happens.

Thanks for the co-debugging.

Cheers,
