When I try to switch from editing a page or post to the actual post, WordPress inserts "?q=" after the root URL (and changes slashes to "%2F"). I've not seen this before, and Google is not pulling up any suggestions. Does anyone know what might cause this and how I can revert?

q isn't one of the standard query vars. Any chance your theme is doing this, e.g. if you're using a single page theme?– RupCommented Jan 11, 2020 at 11:50

Please make sure that you don't have q as parameter in your permalink settings. You can see the permalink settings from wp-admin -> settings -> permalinks
I've got the same thing happening with mine too... trying to investigate where it's coming from but nothing yet. nothing in permalink settings, maybe something with a plugin is my guess. happens if i use the root domain, but not on www, so also maybe something with a weird 301/302 redirect somewhere uproute.
