    Hi Jean,

    This seems like strange error. What’s the URL of your WordPress dashboard? (you can block out the domain name if necessary)

    Also, is the 404 page that is displayed the standard WordPress version, or just a simple white page with text?

    Hi,

    I have the same problem on one of my website, impossible to save any snippet as it brings me all the time to my 404 page (the normal one). Did you find the solution?

    Hi @recyclart,

    Unfortunately, I don’t have a solution. I would need more information in order to figure out what might be going wrong.

    Hi,
    I have the same problem and I found something strange. In fact I’m trying to save a standard snippet in order to allow HTML in Excerpts. The snippet is as follows :
    ————————————————————————————–
    /******************************************************************************

    function custom_wp_trim_excerpt($text) {
    $raw_excerpt = $text;

    if ( ” == $text ) {
    $text = get_the_content(”);
    $text = strip_shortcodes( $text );
    $text = apply_filters(‘the_content’, $text);
    $text = str_replace(‘]]>’, ‘]]>’, $text);
    /***Add the allowed HTML tags separated by a comma.***/
    $allowed_tags = ‘<p>,,,‘;
    $text = strip_tags($text, $allowed_tags);
    /***Change the excerpt word count.***/
    $excerpt_word_count = 60;
    $excerpt_length = apply_filters(‘excerpt_length’, $excerpt_word_count);
    /*** Change the excerpt ending.***/
    $excerpt_end = ‘     ID) . ‘”>’ . ‘» Continue Reading.’ . ‘‘;
    $excerpt_more = apply_filters(‘excerpt_more’, ‘ ‘ . $excerpt_end);

    /**** THIS LINE DOES SOMETHING STRANGE ****/
    $words = preg_split(“/[\n\r\t ]+/”, $text, $excerpt_length + 1, PREG_SPLIT_NO_EMPTY);

    if ( count($words) > $excerpt_length ) {
    array_pop($words);
    $text = implode(‘ ‘, $words);
    $text = $text . $excerpt_more;
    } else {
    $text = implode(‘ ‘, $words);
    }
    }
    return apply_filters(‘wp_trim_excerpt’, $text, $raw_excerpt);
    }
    remove_filter(‘get_the_excerpt’, ‘wp_trim_excerpt’);
    add_filter(‘get_the_excerpt’, ‘custom_wp_trim_excerpt’);
    ——————————————————————————–
    When I try to save this snippet it brings me to my 404 page.

    Now have a look to this code line :
    $words = preg_split(“/[\n\r\t ]+/”, $text, $excerpt_length + 1, PREG_SPLIT_NO_EMPTY);
    As soon as I change the code line to
    $words = pregsplit(“/[\n\r\t ]+/”, $text, $excerpt_length + 1, PREG_SPLIT_NO_EMPTY);
    two things will happen. First is that the snippet does not work anymore (which seems to be normal) but it is aved without any problem.

    I didn’t figure out where this behavior might come from but maybe it will help you to find a solution ??

    Cheers

    Are you able to repost your snippet properly formatted as code? Or post it on https://gist.github.com and link to it? It looks like it’s been messed up by the forum formatting.

    Hello Shea @bungeshea

    I have the same problem with one of my sites but, in my case, with one snippet. Others seem to work fine. The problem is not from the snippet, because it works fine in other webs.

    In this case, the problem is that the snippet I’ve tried to insert needs to create a special folder (with new files), but the folder never builds. I don’t know if this is the same reason some developers get the 404 error page.

    If you’re using conventional PHP methods for accessing the filesystem, these methods are not always reliable on different server configurations.

    I’d recommend taking a look at the WP Filesystem API and see whether using those methods resolves this issue.
