Linking to a post with the wrong category name still works

There seem to be more serious issues with your site, as access to all these links is limited by Wordfence. Are you aware of this?

My websites have sustained huge attacks from numerous foreign countries and my business is local, so I now use Wordfence to block access from outside the US.

After the last WordPress upgrade, the 404 error disappeared and the posts now can be linked and work as follows: https://domain.com/post

However, anything entered as the directory name also works. I’m not sure why this is. For instance:

https://domain.com/directory/post
https://domain.com/xx/post
https://domain.com/anything/post

If you want to take a look, let me know which country you are in and I will unblock it.

Well, you’re saying that https://newyorkmotorcycleaccidentlawyer.com/accidents/need-motorcycle-lawyer is the correct link but your permalink settings are https://newyorkmotorcycleaccidentlawyer.com/%postname% , so maybe recheck your permalink settings? Saving the same settings again might even already fix any issues you have.
