The 404 error indicates that the requested URL was not found on the server. This could be due to several reasons. Let’s troubleshoot:
- Check Endpoint URL: Make sure that the URL you are trying to access is correct. Verify the plugin’s documentation to ensure you have the correct endpoint.
- Verify Plugin Activation: Ensure that the “Push Notification FCM” plugin is installed and activated on your WordPress site. If it’s not activated, the endpoint might not be accessible.
- Permalink Settings: Sometimes, the permalink settings in WordPress might affect the REST API’s functionality. You can try resetting them by navigating to “Settings” > “Permalinks” and simply clicking “Save Changes.”
- Authentication Issues: If the plugin requires authentication, you may need to include additional headers or authentication parameters in your request.
- Investigate Server Logs: If none of the above solutions work, you may want to check the server logs for any specific error messages related to this request.
- Debugging Tools: Consider using tools like Postman to test the endpoint, as they can provide more detailed information on what might be going wrong.
- WordPress REST API Namespace: If the plugin’s documentation doesn’t provide detailed information about the endpoint, you may need to discover the correct namespace and route. You can do this by visiting
https://localhost:8000/wp-json/
in your browser, which should list all available namespaces and endpoints.
