Random Button issue

    hello!
    I’ve been looking at this support forum and found someone else also had an issue with random buttons, which wasn’t resolved. I also have a problem, but different in nature.

    site: It’s The Tie!

    Right now the random button redirects to the latest comic most of the time, and some of the time to an outdated url for a comic whose title has since been changed. I updated Jetpack and permalinks. the issue persists.
    In fact, i also downloaded a plugin that generates random redirects from a custom URL ( it would enable me to get a random button in the menu up top, not ideal, but something ) and the results are exactly the same.

    it seems that the database it gets its url’s from is incomplete and outdated.

    any way to fix this?

    thanks!

    Hi, I may have missed it, but I’m not seeing any random button on your site. It may be that I’m just tired. 🙂

    you’re right, there wasn’t a random button because i hid it.
    put it back to test the issue, it’s the small black button on the navigation bar

    Hi there – could you try refreshing your permalink structure by going to Settings > Permalinks, and resaving the current structure without making changes? Sometimes this helps resolve issues with the comics (and other) custom post type. Let me know if this works. Thanks.
