Tried to solve the problem on my own. I changed structure to typical wordpress installation but it didn’t help. So I deleted wordpress, cleaned database, installed wordpress again and manually moved my theme to WordPress. Now everything works fine.
In WP, the 404.php template is used if a page is not found. If 404.php is not in your theme, then a generic Not Found is returned. Make a child theme (since you never want to change theme code directly), then copy the 404.php file from the theme folder into your child theme folder. Then … Read more
I had a colleague take a look at the entire plugin code and he found a function I had written which was forcing the query to only show ‘Published’ posts. This was interfering with the preview as it was being treated as a front-end query. I was able to bypass it by adding the parameter … Read more
You won’t get a 404 because WP can find the page, and it then delegates the request to the template file where you added your own logic. You could build your own 404 handling in that file, but a better way is to use a the archive.php (or archive-post.php for just this post type) to … Read more
this is quite a common issue with htaccess file blocking malformed un-shlashed url such as cf7 wp-json requests. Therefore check your .htaccess file in your root folder to see if this is the case with your server too, find the section in your .htaccess that is adding a “https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/” at the end of requests # … Read more
Got to the bottom of this. How to create a permalink structure with custom taxonomies and custom post types like base-name/parent-tax/child-tax/custom-post-type-name I started from scratch with a whole new content type and the first answer in the solution above worked for me. I still had a few duplicate url issues from trying to resolve the … Read more
I have seen the magic “.” break a lot of sites paginations and do errors to such issues as yours (return status 404 for subcategories). Try installing a plugin named “WP No category base” (link below) and remove that dot from the category base. Save permalinks a few times after installing plugin and hope that … Read more
To determine if there is something wrong with your server settings or with your theme, you can write a very simple theme that will display different results for the custom post type. I just tried that with the following theme: style.css /** * Theme Name: WPSE */ functions.php <?php function wpse_init() { register_post_type( ‘wpse’, array( … Read more
// Missing product redirect to product category add_filter( ‘rewrite_rules_array’, function( $rules ) { $new_rules = array( ‘shop/([^/]*?)/page/([0-9]{1,})/?$’ => ‘index.php?product_cat=$matches[1]&paged=$matches[2]’, ‘shop/([^/]*?)/?$’ => ‘index.php?product_cat=$matches[1]’, ); return $new_rules + $rules; } );
Yes, it’s normal behavior. WordPress uses a set of rewrite rules to process requests. Here are the rules that will match requests related to categories: [category/(.+?)/feed/(feed|rdf|rss|rss2|atom)/?$] => index.php?category_name=$matches[1]&feed=$matches[2] [category/(.+?)/(feed|rdf|rss|rss2|atom)/?$] => index.php?category_name=$matches[1]&feed=$matches[2] [category/(.+?)/page/?([0-9]{1,})/?$] => index.php?category_name=$matches[1]&paged=$matches[2] [category/(.+?)/?$] => index.php?category_name=$matches[1] As you can see, all of them require, that the request is longer than /category/. And it makes … Read more
