    Cross-posting here because I'm clutching at straws.

    Does anyone have any experience with Articles interfering with Wayfinder? e.g. preventing certain pages from appearing in a WF menu, when they rightly should appear?

      From what I understand of your structure, you aren't even using an Articles resource so it shouldn't be an issue. I have had some odd things happen when I trialed Articles a while ago, so I suppose it's not out of the question.

      Try uninstalling and deleting Wayfinder, then re-install Wayfinder. Or, you could try installing pdoTools and using pdoMenu, which is pretty much a drop-in replacement for Wayfinder (only a lot better, IMO)

      I would not recommend uninstalling Articles. That had some very unfortunate effects on the sites I had tried it with.

        The only reason I posted here is because I can only come up with one thing common between documents that are being hidden from WF.

        WF only shows documents with an ID less than than the record ID of the first Article, and WF incorrectly hides all regular pages that have an ID greater than the ID of the first Article.

        That is, WF correctly hides all Articles, but also incorrectly hides all pages that were created in the DB after the first Article.

          I tried an in-place re-install of WF. That didn't fix it.

          Tried uninstalling, re-downloading, installing. That didn't fix it.

          I think uninstalling Articles may be my only option right now.

          UPDATE

          Fully uninstalled Articles, and the problem remains. Gonna let Articles off the hook now.
