  • Borja,

    What are your Permalink settings? Try updating your permalink settings and refreshing.

    It is a bug within WordPress, or close enough…

    When entering a 4 digit number, WordPress thinks that you want to show an archive for the year of that number. In you case that would be 2014. As you don’t have any posts published for 2014 yet, you get a 404 error.

    When creating a page, you can’t enter 2014 as permalink, it will automatically correct to 2014-2 or something. However it doesn’t do the same thing for posts… (probably as default permalink structure isn’t only https://domain/permalink).

    I am certainly not seeing this. A slug is a slug…

    If this is happening, it’s from a plugin or theme.
