404 Pages when My Account is child page of main Store page

    I am setting up a store for a client where I want all of the WooCommerce related pages to be constrained to a store “section” of the site, i.e. everything nested under the main Store page.

    When I set things up like this, the checkout confirmation page resulted in a 404 page being displayed. After some checking, all of the Order and My Account endpoint pages are resulting in a 404 page.

    To ensure that none of the plugins on the site were causing issues, I set up a test site (in my local development environment) with a fresh install of WordPress with no plugins and the 2014 theme. I installed WooCommerce and set up a couple products so that I could test things. I left all of the WooCommerce pages as top level pages, which is where WooCommerce creates them. When I placed an order, the confirmation page displayed for me as did the order details. Everything appeared to be functioning properly.

    I then made the Cart, Checkout, and My Account pages child pages of my main Store page. After doing this, I went to the Permalinks settings and updated them to make sure the permalinks were updated. I then tried to view the order details of the order I had previously placed ( mydomain.com/store/my-account/view-order/42 ) and ended up with a 404 page.

    I then made the My Account page a top level page [and updated the Permalinks]. I went to view the order details again ( mydomain.com/my-account/view-order/42/ ), and I was able to view them.

    So basically, when the My Account page is a child page of the main Store page, the My Account and Order endpoints are resulting in 404 pages. Is it possible to make things work with the My Account page as a child page of the main Store page?

    After doing some additional debugging, it appears that my problems stem from my Product permalink base. I have changed that to “Shop base” (i.e. store). After doing this, my order detail and other account related pages are loading. The rest of my store appears to be functioning properly as well. I just don’t have the URL structure that I wanted. But for this particular case, having the simpler URLs should be just fine.
