Pages with parent pages giving 404 errors

  • I have 300 pages website. Suddenly all pages with parent pages are giving 404 error. But when i set no parent then page is working fine.

    Even i changed Permalinks Settings -> Permalinks and choose Post Name then hit SAVE

    Please let me know how to solve this problem.

  • Did you recently install any plugin before this happened? I had a similar issue with tags/categories when I had a conflict with a custom post type I had created.

    It was ‘competing’ over the same tags or something.

    Hello Jsima

    You probably need to update your .htaccess file manually,

    Login to your server using FTP, and modify the .htaccess file which is located in the same location where folders like /wp-content/ and /wp-includes/ are located.

    Download the .htaccess file on your system, replace with the content below and upload the file back.

    # BEGIN WordPress
    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /
    RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
    </IfModule>
    # END WordPress
