 * Hey guys,
 * I recently upgraded the Deadline Responsive theme on [http://www.take5.ca](http://www.take5.ca).
 * The shop’s slug is set to ‘/shop/’ but when I click on a product, the permalink
   changes to ‘/news/product’ and I get an unknown page error.
 * Could you take a look? It’s under maintenance right now – I could give you Dashboard
   access.
 * Thank you so much.

 * Can you replicate the problem using the default Twenty Fourteen theme with **
   all** other plugins deactivated?

 * Hey Esmi,
 * Yes, when I deactivate other plugins and switch to the 2014 theme, the /news/
   slug is still added for a product.

 * Sorry but it is not eShop doing that. Can we see the site using the default Twenty
   Fourteen theme with all other plugins deactivated and using the default permalink
   structure?

 * Hi Esmi,
 * I could but then I’d have to release the maintenance mode. Can I send you temporary
   Admin access?
 * Which email address should I use?
 * Thanks.

 * Yes, I understand. No problem.
 * I changed permalinks to default and I have the same issue.
 * I have released maintenance mode so you can see:

 * Hey Esmi,
 * You can but… I need to know that you are right there because the client will 
   not like me switching themes.
 * I’ll keep checking in with you to establish that time. Thanks.

 * We support this free plugin in our spare time, so we cannot guarantee when we
   will be available to check the site. sorry. 🙁

 * Hey Esmi,
 * Yep, I get it. Thanks for taking the time.
 * Let me check with the client as to whether they want to keep using eShop before
   I ask you to help me further.
 * Thanks again.
