I have been using Rewrite on one site for about a year, and have found it to be great, 5-star material. However, when I installed this on another site, it caused all pages to 301 Redirect to my home page. Yikes! Deactivating the plugin resolved the problem. Both websites were running WordPress 4.7.3.
