WordPress sub-pages disappeared

We just got a call from one of our clients who couldn’t get to any of the sub-pages on her site, but her home page was still up. Luckily we have run into this in the past, it’s something that happens whenever we migrate a WordPress site so we knew how to fix it.

Don’t Panic

If your wordpress site shows the home page but none of the other pages are showing up and giving you 404 errors simply go into Settings > Permalinks, scroll down the page (no need to change anything) and click the Save Changes button.

That’s it, your pages are magically back… No idea why this happened out of the blue to a site that we weren’t migrating to another server, but luckily the same fix worked…
