Here are some of the common causes behind the 404 error not found: 👉 A mistyped URL. 👉 Caching issues. 👉 An issue with your DNS (Domain Name System) settings. 👉 WordPress compatibility issues. So, how to fix Error 404 Page Not Found? Here are three methods for you to try: 🟣 Resetting Permalinks If you are still able to access the WordPress dashboard, navigate to Settings and click on Permalinks. Then, click on a different permalink structure to reset it. However, if the 404 error not found message is preventing you from accessing the WordPress dashboard, edit one of your site’s configuration files. 👉 Reset permalinks using the .htaccess file. Create a backup file and replace the code within .htaccess with the following: BEGIN WordPress RewriteEngine On RewriteRule .* - [E=HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%{HTTP:Authorization}] RewriteBase / RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L] RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule . /index.php [L] END WordPress 🟣 Disabling Plugins and Switching Themes Sometimes, the error 404 not found message may appear due to incompatibility with the theme or plugins. Temporarily disable the plugins one by one and change your WordPress site’s theme to troubleshoot this issue. 🟣 Setting Up a Redirect If you recently moved content to a new location, set up a redirect to solve the 404 error. Here are two methods to set up a redirect: 👉 Use the Redirection plugin. 👉 Edit your .htaccess file. ____________________________________________ ▶ Want to see more awesome tutorials like this in the future?
