    All of my book detail pages are coming up with a 404 error. This is all of a sudden.

    Everything was working fine. For a long time.

    I logged onto my WP site to add another book and upon checking to make sure that that book’s pages were working OK I discovered the error. Then I discovered that every single one of my other books’ detail pages were not working either.

    Here is some interesting data I discovered while troubleshooting:

    When editing a page, when I click on preview changes (under publish) I get the 404 for error. All my books are set to public. I tried toggling back and forth private public for one book to see if that did anything with no luck. View Post as well as clicking on the permalink don’t yield anything either.
    (these all point to the same URL but I tried it anyways).

    I did try it on a different browser (same computer ) and my phone — all get this 404 error.

    Also if you search “” (see here – https://gscottgraham.com/?s= you see my books listed including my most recent book but when you click on Continue Reading you get the 404 error (links to the same URL for the book detail / preview / permanent I described earlier — which I why I tried it on different browsers and my phone thinking they might be the issue and not the site).

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    I continued to troubleshoot after making this post so I could give the best info possible and things are working again!

    yay!

    It has something to do with EmbedPress Pro

    (This was one of my most recent actions on the site).

    I deactivated this plug in and the URL started working again. I have since reactivated the plug in and the URL is still working.

    So all I can deduce is that installing this plug in (EmbedPress) after you have been using the book manager somehow creates a problem and toggling it on and off fixes it.

    Thanks for following up with the solution. I will look into the EMbed Press plugin to see if maybe there’s something MBM can do to prevent a conflict.
