For example, I created this post with a the following custom URL in 2018. The permalink has been the same since the post was published:
https://www.emilyluxton.co.uk/canada/trek-america-review-mountie

Today, I made a small change to the article, fixing a couple of typos. I clicked save, and suddenly the URL had switched to: https://www.emilyluxton.co.uk//2018/07/05/canada-trek-america-review-mountie/

I changed it back and clicked save, and it went back to the custom URL no problem.

It seems to be happening at random so I don’t know how to recreate the issue in order to work out what’s causing it!

We have over 670 posts in the wrong permalink structure and we reached out to Maciej for some assistance in changing the structure safely. In no time at all, Maciej got back to us and helped resolve the issue we had. Wow, I was so impressed with his prompt and detailed reply that I am pleased to be writing this review to tell the world about it.

Please support this author and check out his premium Permalink Manager Pro version on his website. He deserves the support.

Thank you very much Maciej.

I’ve just transferred over my website from a static HTML/CSS site to a WordPress site, a lot of the webpage links are exactly the same (which I thought would help with SEO) however, when you search for my company name on Google it is linking to domains with .html at the end, and the webpages on WordPress don’t have .html at the end. I’ve looked at changing the permalink structure, like here –
https://wordpresshero.com/tricks/add-html-extension-to-permalinks.html/

Change Permalink Structure

By default in wordpress, your “/%category%/%postname%.html/” permalink structure will only apply to blog posts – so we are going to require a plugin for pages.

But that is only for posts. There is a plugin which puts HTML for pages but not sure if it works…

Can anyone help?? Anyone had experience with anything similar??

Thanks!!

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

Please help me with this issue.

Going to just the /listings page always leads to an Apache notification. Going to listings/status/active or entering a query for ?s&post_type=listing leads to a 404 notification. Only when I go to a specific property URL does everything looks fine:

https://www.burnettrealestateteam.com/listings/404-ne-whitney-st/

I’ve read through several of the posts on here that address various problems with the listing page. I have reset permalinks to post structure in settings, I have looked for artifacts in my .htaccess file and SQL databases. I’ve also uninstalled and reinstalled the Broker IDX plugin. Nothing has solved the issue.

Do you have any suggestions? Perhaps I’ve missed something? I’m starting to feel like banging my head against the wall.

Thanks,
Brent

Running the following:
WP v3.9.1
AE Open Floor Plan v1.0.10
WP Listings v1.0.7

I want to change the permalinks of my website which i created at the start of my blog now i want to change that structure to new structure

/%postname%/%post_id%.html (Old)

/%category%/%postname%-%post_id%.html(New)

But when i did use this 404 error come. I did install permalink-redirect and try to over come this issue but nothing happened to it.

Then i did install a new plugin by uninstalling the recent one. The new plugin which i use is advanced-permalinks but nothing happened again.

My currently website link which you can see here is.

https://1re.info/gate-2013/3117.html

after changing permalink by using any of above mention plugin it give this:
https://1re.info/permalink-issue.PNG

Originally it should be like this if it works fine.

https://1re.info/admit-card/gate-2013-3117.html

Although I backed everything up via my FTP (and database from PHPMyAdmin) I foolishly didn’t have show hidden files selected so my .htaccess file wasn’t backed up.

I’ve created a new .htaccess file following what I’ve read on the forums (code pasted below). When i update to the same custom structure that previously worked (simply /%postname%/) I get no error message just “Permalink structure updated.” However it hasn’t updated, instead i get 404 errors.

Can anyone help shed any light? I’ve tried deactivating all the plugins, switched to the twentyeleven theme and still the same errors.

Thanks in advance from a frustrated designer trying to get to grips with WP.

<—- code for my .htaccess file —->

“# 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”

After installing the navigation seems to have gone awry.

Pages are fine
2 categories with no subs are ok
All urls from the search engine work and go to their respective pages on the site

Category 1 works ok
Category 2 works ok

Category 3 has 17 posts

clicking on category 3 sidebar nav – returns one post only – post A

clicking on post A in the nav menu returns a 404

clicking on posts B to M (12 separate posts) returns a 404

clicking on posts O,P,Q returns the correct post

Entering a new post with a new category shows in the menu but returns a 404

Theme is Socrates 2.0+

Have tried changing to different themes but it makes no difference.

All installed plug-ins are deleted

Permalinks is set to Custom /%postname%/

I have changed this to /%category%/ /%postname%/ – but it makes no difference

I have tried deleting the posts and categories completely and setting them up again with the same titles, this also makes no difference.

I have now reached the limit of my expertise, and don’t know what to do next.

Its looking at the moment like I will have to delete everything and just use pages for navigation, which in the long run may not be viable.

Fortunately this site has been just sitting on my server for a couple of months doing nothing as I have not had time to work on it and it is not monetized, so I am not that worried if I have to trash it.

Any help or ideas on what else I can try to fix this much appreciated.
Thanks Guys
