Sometimes when I edit an old post, MType redirects you to the index instead of the actual post when you hit VIEW in the edit entry screen. If you search for the post online, you can see the old post with the correct url, but without the new changes.
Reported on Movable Type 5
That is a strange behaviour, but can you please try to wait for the changes to be saved, before hitting the "View" link?
That should lead you to the individual post page, with the latest changes reflected on it.
Kind Regards,

Hi Mihai
These strange errors have occurred after the upgrade to MType 5. I also have another publishing issue which I don't know if it's related so I created a separate thread. So here are all the publishing issues listed.
1.Sometimes when I edit an old post, MType redirects you to the index instead of the actual post when you hit VIEW in the edit entry screen. If you search for the post online, you can see the old post with the correct url, but without the new changes.
2. The entry url is filled with % chars as follows: http://www.pspworld.com/sony-psp/News/Are%20You%20Going%20To%20Queue%20Up%20For%20Your%20PS%20Vita-014355.php
3. Currently had Category Archive publishing action via publishing queue. Since the upgrade, new posts not showing in Category archives. So currently testing with default static method. Result - still not showing.
Am at a loss now.
Somehow MT5 is changing the url basename
That is quite strange, because I've upgraded a couple of installations myself and I didn't have any problem.
I've explained the issue from point no. 2 to you on your other thread, meaning:
http://forums.movabletype.org/2011/11/ugly-entry-urls.html
As for the 3rd point, it could be that you've forgot to call the run-periodic-tasks script, which to call the publish queue.
I am available for consultancy if you want me to check it out for you.

1. ?
2. Basename is set in the edit entry screen, in the basename field. Eg. how_to_transfer_dlc_from_one_p_1
But the permalink is as follows.
3. Even if the run-periodic-tasks-script isn't activated, shouldn't it update ok after changing the publish option to static?
Just sticking here for reference:

Incidentally, have 5 blogs. All entries are showing up in Category archives fine except one.
Also related is now a cron error since I added the PagedArchive plugin.
Wide character in print at .../MT/plugins/pagedarchive/pagedarchives.pl line 334
Are you sure that you've got the PagedArchive plugin v1.4?
That one is for movable type v5.x and I'm using it myself without any problems.
good one. would be good if these plugins had an update alert. just upgraded to 1.4 and watching the cron error.
You won't have any trouble ;)
Not sure if it's an error or just message. Now getting following
get_entry_count redefined at /MT/plugins/pagedarchives/
You might have to adjust the coding you've used inside those templates that you are paginating with pagedarchives.
Check the documentation from the pagedarchives plugin page and make sure your coding follows that.
