404 on recurring event links (again)

    A couple of weeks ago all of our recurring events links started giving 404 errors. The fix was to install the patch (The Events Calendar – Workaround for 404’s after migration. Reference ECP-1398) and then do the permalink flush.

    It happened again today. This time I only had to do the permalink flush, but WTH? Do I have to babysit every update to be sure it doesn’t break all the links?? I kept the patch installed and activated, does it need to be removed?

    It’s marked as fixed on https://theeventscalendar.com/known-issues/#dl_ECP-1398 but it is NOT fixed.

    Pro user here, if it matters. Pro version 6.0.3 and regular plugin version is 6.0.4

    Really annoying.

    @ohliza

    Thank you for reaching out.
    Yikes! That’s definitely not what we were hoping for. Apologies.

    In order to fix that properly, I do have a couple of questions.

    Just to confirm, you said that flushing the permalinks completely fixed the issue on your end, right?

    Can you also tell me if:

    1. This happened as a result of an auto-update or a manual one?
    2. There is any form of caching active on your site?

    @tfrank77 if you could also answer those questions, that would be super helpful.

    Many thanks,
    Geoff

    Hi,

    Thanks for the quick response.

    I will try to answer all your questions.

    // permalinks completely fixed the issue
    Yes

    // result of an auto-update or a manual one?
    it was a remote update through WP-CLI (Plesk system)

    // any form of caching active?
    No

    I hope it helps.

    Yes flushing alone fixed it this time, though the patch is still installed and active.

    -automatic, which I have disabled now
    -Wp-optimize installed to manually clean tables etc but page caching is not active and has not been.

    Hi @ohliza, with WP-Optimize, it would be good if you could also the setup here: https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/k/wp-optimize/.

    This is to make sure that it is optimized and set up correctly.

    Please let me know how it goes.

    Hi @tfrank77, could you try flushing permalinks right after updating the plugin? https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/k/fixing-http-404-errors/#flush-permalinks

    // permalinks completely fixed the issue
    Yes

    So, do I have to do this after every update?

    No thanks on the support ticket, I’ll start one if it happens again.
