Wordpress 404s

Hi all,

I am getting a lot of 404 errors in my new blog at jackmcintyre.net.

I think the problem is to do with htaccess:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

RewriteEngine On

RewriteBase /

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/(stats|failed_auth\.html).*$ [NC]

RewriteRule . - [L]

</IfModule> 

# BEGIN WordPress

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

RewriteEngine On

RewriteBase /

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d

RewriteRule . /index.php [L]

</IfModule>



# END WordPress

Code (markup):

Is there any problem there?

The weird thing is that I cannot reproduce the error, but somehow, other users are landing on pages with index.php on the end of the url. So if someone should go to xyz.com/abc/def, they are actually going to xyz.com/abc/def/index.php, which shows a 404.

It may be due to moving my site from a subfolder to root.

Any tips?

 

try removing that HTACCESS file and re-uploading a standard one from a fresh install..see if that works!

 

The wordpress section looks the same as the default one. Is there anything in the top one that could be causing a problem?

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

RewriteEngine On

RewriteBase /

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/(stats|failed_auth\.html).*$ [NC]

RewriteRule . - [L]

</IfModule>

I should also clarify - the urls are showing up in google analytics, maybe it is just a problem with analytics and wordpress?

 

it appears to be in order....have you upgraded recently, or changed the permalink structure?

 

the whole blog is new, I'm just seeing these pages in google analytics that do not exist.

I just changed to a different wordpress google analytics plugin to see if that was the issue, but I doubt it.

 

perhaps this plugin could help? It fixes 404s: http://www.biggnuts.com/objection-redirection-wordpress-plugin/
