Answer 1

If your site uses permalinks, try going to Settings > Permalinks and then click on Save. It will refresh your permalinks and will typically solve the issue.

Answer 2

You have to upload .htaccess file on root folder. First create file with name ".htaccess".

Paste below code to this created file :

# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>

# END WordPress

Save and upload on server to root directory.
