Wordpress multisite giving a 404 on all new pages created [closed]

Question

I am using multisite on wordpress using subdomains on my local.

I had created a page for one of the sites [site1.local.loc] with the link [site1.local.loc/page1 ; I entered this in the page creation step only]. However, on creation of any page, when I click on the 'View page' link that appears, I get a 'Not found 404' error message. It doesn't look like a Wordpress 404.

I think the pages exist, but they are not getting linked. This is because when I assign a static page to be my home page, it loads with the content that I had created. I didn't fiddle around with permalinks either.

How do I get around this?

Answer 1

Try going into Settings > Permalinks and re-saving the options there (or change them to something else, save, then reset to what you really want and save again). Sometimes that will clear up strange 404 errors on pages.

Answer 2

I would also suggest you change the permalink (like FriendlyWP states) to the 'default' configuration. If it works, it could be that mod_rewrite module is not enabled in Apache.

I know that this module is not activated by default in WAMP Server. I don't know if you are using it...

Answer 3

Try to refresh your permalink settings.

Go to ~/wp-admin/options-permalink.php - this flushes your rewrite rules. Sometimes it helps.
