Can't use CampTix on home page? about camptix

Does it work if you put it on a separate page (not home) instead?

[discoverRG]

Yeah, it works on a separate page (if you check that link again, you'll see a test page that I set up).

Also, now that I have this test page set up, the home page works - after you click the register button, it forwards you to that test page, rather than staying on the home page.

Is that the way that it's supposed to work?

For my purposes, this is probably okay.

CampTix currently looks for a single page with the shortcode and picks whatever it finds first. So you're just lucky, that the homepage ticketing page redirects to the page which works and not vice versa (picks newest first). Reopening as this is an actual bug and should be fixed.

It looks like this is the same problem reported at http://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/16373, and $post ends up being null in the template_redirect callback.

If we don't register tix_action as a query var, then $post is unaffected and the ticket form shows up.

Refactoring everything to use $_GET directly should do the trick, provided that doesn't have any side-effects. I'll look at it a bit closer tomorrow and test that out.
