Updating Permalink changes update your permalinks settings and flush rewrite rules. In most cases this fixes the WordPress posts 404 error. BTW, you already tried this and I hpe your .htaccess should be writable. Have you checked it? If not then you can change .htaccess file permission temporary writable by changing the permissions to 666 … Read more
Martin’s fix works, but a better solution is to use the pre_get_posts function. Example: function custom_type_archive_display($query) { if (is_post_type_archive(‘custom_type’)) { $query->set(‘posts_per_page’,1); return; } } add_action(‘pre_get_posts’, ‘custom_type_archive_display’);
I know this is an old question but I was having the same issue in a theme I inherited and came across this question in my search for answers. In my particular case, I found the following PHP code included in the theme’s function.php file: if( is_category() || is_date() || is_author() ) { global $wp_query; … Read more
Manually setting is_404 = false; fixed my issue. However I’m not sure this is the best way to do it. I tried using the pre_get_posts filter instead without any luck. Anyway, for anyone else in the same boat, you can do this to get rid of the 404 state: public function add_response_template($template) { global $wp_query; … Read more
get_the_ID() is broken. function get_the_ID() { return get_post()->ID; } It tries to use the member ID on a function that returns a post object sometimes: /* * @return WP_Post|null WP_Post on success or null on failure */ function get_post( $post = null, $output = OBJECT, $filter=”raw” ) { get_posts() can return NULL, and NULL has … Read more
I had the axact same problem. My solution: edited/etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default.conf. It needs to look like: <VirtualHost *:80> ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost DocumentRoot /var/www/html <Directory /> Options FollowSymLinks AllowOverride all </Directory> <Directory /var/www/> Options FollowSymLinks AllowOverride all Order allow,deny allow from all </Directory> ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined </VirtualHost> It works!
Have you refreshed your rewrite rules? You can do this by resaving your permalink settings under Settings>Permalinks in the admin. If it is a plugin or theme you are distributing you can call $wp_rewrite->flush_rules(); upon activation.
You only need to add “/.” after category base: Category base: news/. (/. is required as it prevents 404s for post). This worked perfectly for me 🙂 EDIT: This field will strip trailing or leading slashes unless you include the “.”
Things are working the way they are supposed to, and possibly the only way they can work. Let me explain. Without an Apache module called mod_rewrite (or the equivalent Nginx or IIS component) requests to PHP pages have to go to an actual filesystem file. That is what you see with requests like 192.168.1.8/wordpress/?p=123. The … Read more
You should be including wp-load.php, not wp-blog-header.php (which is reserved for use by WordPress only). This is most likely the cause of your problem.
