Can't figure out 404s on Pages

    The site: https://www.trueup.net

    I have custom permalinks set to /%year%/%category%/%postname%/

    Page links on the site and from “view page” from the page’s editing screen are returning 404s, even when I set the permalink type back to the default. Those links seem to remain, for example, https://www.trueup.net/about no matter now I flip the custom permalink settings. Posts are all working fine, though.

    In the .htaccess file the rewrite code is the default (I believe?)

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

  • Pages don’t have the Category taxonomy. Thus, %category% is not a valid parameter for Page permalinks.

    Thanks Chip, I thought of that, but how do you set that independently of post permalinks, and why would they still not work when the Custom Permalink structure is set back to default?

    Well, the issue is resolved, I think it was just a caching issue. I changed back to default, logged out, and Page links worked. Changed back to the custom permalink structure, and everything worked.

    Feelin’ like a crazy person crying wolf over here.
