Fixing 404 or Posts Redirecting to Homepage

Re-saving the permalink structure can often resolve 404 errors.

Steps

  1. Go to Settings → Permalinks.
  2. Select your preferred permalink format.
  3. Click Save Changes.

If the issue persists, select a different format, save, then switch back to your preferred format and save again.

This will force WordPress to rewrite the .htaccess file and refresh the permalink rules.

Note

If the issue still persists, you may need to update the .htaccess file manually. This is a server-related issue and may be outside the scope of theme support.

You may also need to contact your hosting provider for assistance.
