404 Error when write ‘xhtml’ word

    Hello,

    I have a problem with custom post types created via Custom Post Type UI and the word “xhtml”.
    When I write the word “xhtml” in title of custom post or any other custom field in it I receive 404 error and nothing saved to database.

    But I can create standard post or page with this word without problem or can use it in any custom field.

    In the same time there is no such problem at local server, and maybe it’s a problem in some server settings, but standard wordpress post types do not have this problem. Maybe I can solve this problem by changing some settings in post types created via Custom Post Type UI?

    This is only when used as part of the title, or a meta field?

    Can you provide an example title that you’re trying to use this with?

    This is a brand new issue I have never heard of before, so I can’t say for certain about any type of solution. At the moment, I can’t think of any setting for CPTUI that would change/affect this at all, since we don’t have any influence at all regarding titles or custom fields for posts.

    This happens every time when I use it in a title or in meta fields.

    I used some links that contain the “.xhtml” code in one of my meta field.
    And if I just make title of the post like “xhtml” i have this issue. Same things with any meta field in post at custom post type.

    Will see if I can recreate at all to at least provide some guidance on what to check next, but I have a feeling it’s either server-specific somehow or something coming in from WP core itself.

    Ok.
    I have this issue on 2 websites on Namecheap hosting. And have no issue at another one hosting and local server.
    So it’s evidently server-specifics. But it’s interesting that this does not affect standard WordPress post types.

    For more information on diagnostics, can you visit one of the sites where this is an issue, and visit https://www.YOURDOMAIN.com/wp-admin/admin.php?page=cptui_tools&action=debuginfo with your actual domain filled in. There should be a small text field underneath that larger textarea where you can email that information to someone. Please send it to [email protected] so that I can check things over. There should be no personal identifying information included, so there’s nothing to worry about there.

    It was a problem with mod_security settings, it trigered on “xhtml” word. After disable some rules all works fine.

    Thank You for help.
