Using WordPress Posts within Knowledge Base
Articles or Categories Show 404
If you access a KB article and encounter a "not found" (HTTP 404) error, this is likely due to a misconfiguration on your site, or it could be caused by a theme or another plugin. Here are the steps to troubleshoot the issue:
- Save WordPress Permalinks
Some plugins may alter permalinks without refreshing them. Navigate to Admin > Settings > Permalinks and click on the "Save" button to refresh the permalinks. - Test Regular WordPress Posts
Verify if regular WordPress posts also display a 404 error. - Disable Redirection and URL Rewrite Plugins
Misconfigured redirection plugins might be the culprit. Test by disabling them to see if the issue is resolved. - Disable Access, Roles and User Restriction Plugins
Misconfigured content restriction plugins might be the culprit. Test by disabling them to see if the issue is resolved. - Check that KB URLs for Articles are Setup Correctly
Go to Admin > Knowledge Base > Configuration and click on the "KB URLs" tab. Follow the instructions to ensure the URL setup is correct. - Caching
Make sure to clear both your server and browser caches. - WPML and Polylang
If you have WPML or Polylang enabled, ensure you follow our WPML instructions here. Additionally, clear all caches associated with WPML. - Verify Custom Code
Review any custom code that might be causing the error. - PHP Error Log
Check the PHP error log for any errors related to a 404 status. - Theme Check
Sometimes, the active theme may cause conflicts. In your Test or Staging site, temporarily switch to a default WordPress theme (like Twenty Twenty) and see if the error persists. - Plugin Conflicts
 Apart from redirection plugins, other plugins can also cause issues. In your Test or Staging site, deactivate all plugins and activate them one by one to pinpoint the problematic plugin. - .htaccess File
Check the.htaccessfile for any misconfigurations or corruptions. - Migrating KB
When migrating KB, certain tools might trigger this error. We recommend using our Articles Import and Export add-on. - Have your articles worked before but something has changed on your site? Speak to your administrator and developer to help you troubleshoot the issue.
