Redirect Issue

Hi Guys,

Do you experience this type of issue? Please help.

Thanks,
Karl

I would say that you have a duplicate pages conflict.

Check your ‘Trash’ tab, if ‘enrollment’ sits there, delete it for good.

Hi @bottleneck,

The /enrollment page is already removed on site but it’s strange because when I open that page it redirects to this other page: /enrollment-life-coach/, I have no redirection plugin installed on my site. Any idea why?

Thanks,
Karl

Hey, it doesn’t make sense to me.

If it removed, why do you open it? Are you just checking to make sure it returns ‘404 Not Found’, right?

Yes, I’m making sure all deleted page goes to 404 but on this case it’s different. I tried to check mysql database but the page no longer exist there.

If I’m not mistaken, some hosting companies have built in redirections for things like this, especially GoDaddy. Perhaps there’s something in your web hosting control panel that may turn this off.

Just a thought in case you’ve run out of options on the WordPress side of things.

Thanks @robertallen, actually that’s what also I’m thinking and I already contacted my hosting provider and still waiting for their reply.

Okay.

Let’s do some homework.

Please switch to default permalink setting, you know, those ?p=123

Type your /enrollment, the link would change, remember it.

Type your /enrollment-life-coach/, compare the URL number with the previous.

Are those the same? Make sure you clear cache and cookies after switching the permalink setting.

Let us know.

@bottlerneck,

I got this error when I changed my permalink:

Not Found

The requested URL /enrollment-life-coach/ was not found on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

I also cleared my cache before updating.

Thanks,
Karl

Please provide us with complete path ( starting with https:// ) to both pages

Thank you.

Here t’is: https://relationshipcoachinginstitute.com/enrollment, and it redirects to: https://relationshipcoachinginstitute.com/enrollment-life-coach/ , I already put back to my current permalink setting because if I set to default, all my pages goes to error above.

Thanks @bottleneck, appreciate your help.

Dude,

You make an elephant out of a fly.

Just to prove it:

What you mean?

Until I talked to you I didn’t know that such a feature exits.

Consider that as an ‘autocomplete’, if a blog has the similar page’s headline.

You may try it with other blogs.

Thank you.

Hi @bottleneck,

Thanks for your help, appreciate it!
