Frequent 404 Errors on individual events and unrelated CPTs

    Hi, I’m having the same issue on several unrelated sites. Every few days individual event pages become 404s. At the same time, unrelated individual pages for custom post types and native post category pages also return 404s. Tried disabling plugins one-by-one and the issue self-resolves only when Events calendar is disabled. The problem can also be fixed by flushing permalinks. Common thing between the sites is that they are hosted on WP Engine and have the Events Calendar plugin. This has been going on for the last few weeks. I went down the list from the 404 troubleshooting page and tried adding the snippets from here and here to the functions.php. I collected the query dump from one of the 404 pages during one of these episodes and can collect more as these are very frequent. Is there anything else I can try? There are hundreds of events on one of the affected sites. I know you recommended resaving each of them in one of the posts here, but I think that’s not feasible with that many events. I can provide more info privately. Thanks.

    Hi all,

    I just wanted to report that this is not only an issue on WP Engine – I have a client running this plugin whose site is hosted on Kinsta and their site has been experiencing this issue for the past couple months. I’m very relieved to have stumbled on this thread, as I had no solid leads on what plugin was causing this issue – until now.

    My client is extremely frustrated by all the downtime, and rightfully so!

    When they asked me is this normal I had to tell them it is absolutely not normal. We’ve got clients whose WordPress sites have been running for years that have NEVER required us to flush / resave the permalinks.

    Hi all,

    We understand the inconvenience caused by the issue and we’re here to help. One of our developers has created a snippet as a temporary solution. To check if it works, we kindly request you to add it to your theme or child theme’s functions.php file. We assure you that a permanent solution will be made available as soon as possible. Thank you for your patience and understanding.

    remove_filter( 'generate_rewrite_rules', [ 'Tribe__Events__Rewrite', 'filter_generate' ] );
remove_action( 'wp_loaded', [ 'Tribe__Events__Rewrite', 'maybe_delayed_flush_rewrite_rules' ] );

    As always, please test this first on your staging site before applying to your live site to avoid unnecessary downtime.

    Hi there,
    ?
    With our latest release of?The Events Calendar 6.2.1,??we have added some fixes to prevent the 404 errors on event pages.
    ?
    We recommend that you update both plugins to the latest released versions.
    ?
    As always, we suggest testing updates on a staging site first and having a recent backup, but it should all be smooth sailing. You can remove any workarounds after updating the plugins if you implemented them.
    ?
    If you still have issues after updating to the latest releases, please open a new support case and include any specific details.
    ?
    Have a great day,
    Gladys
