Thanks a lot! I had done it before seeing your tutorial and I was trying to replace the old page with a new one. My issue is that the slug/url (although different from the original page) doesn't seem to be working and now I can't see the old or new page. I'm glad I unpublished the old page properly. But any idea why my new updated page won't work? It's published, it's on the menu and the url is not the same as the old page. I'm going crazy here! Thanks 😊

1. Permalink Structure Reset your permalinks: Sometimes, permalink structures can cause issues. To fix this: Go to Settings > Permalinks in your WordPress dashboard. Without making any changes, click Save Changes to refresh the permalink settings. After saving, check if the new page works. 2. Cache Issues Browser Cache: Your browser may be loading an old version of the page. Clear your browser cache and try accessing the page again. Server Cache: If you’re using any caching plugins (e.g., WP Super Cache, W3 Total Cache), clear the cache from the plugin’s settings. Hosting Cache: If your hosting provider has server-side caching (like Varnish), you may need to clear it via your hosting dashboard or contact your host. 3. Conflicting Page or Post Check if there’s any other post or page with the same slug or URL that could be conflicting. Even though you’ve created a new URL, it’s good to ensure that no drafts, pages, or custom post types are conflicting. 4. Database Issues Sometimes, page data might not be properly saved in the database. Try: Saving the page again: Open the page in the WordPress editor, make a minor edit (e.g., add and remove a character), and then click Update. Database repair: If you suspect database issues, you can repair your database via phpMyAdmin or by adding this line to your wp-config.php file: php Copy code define('WP_ALLOW_REPAIR', true); Then go to yourdomain.com/wp-admin/maint/repair.php to repair your database. Remember to remove the line afterward. 5. Menu Link Issue Check if the menu link is pointing to the correct URL. Sometimes, the link can point to an incorrect or broken URL. To verify: Go to Appearance > Menus. Find your new page in the menu, and check that the URL is correct and matches the one in the page editor. 6. Theme or Plugin Conflicts A plugin or theme might be interfering with the page’s functionality. To troubleshoot: Temporarily switch to a default WordPress theme (like Twenty Twenty-Three). Deactivate all plugins temporarily and then activate them one by one to see if any of them is causing the issue. 7. 404 Redirect or Error If the page is throwing a 404 error, there might be a redirection issue. Check if you have any redirect plugins (like Redirection) or server-level redirects that might be causing the problem. You can use a tool like Redirect Path (Chrome extension) to check if any redirects are active for that URL. 8. WordPress Rewrite Rules WordPress uses rewrite rules for pretty permalinks. Sometimes, these rules can get corrupted. To reset them: Add the following line to your .htaccess file (if you're using an Apache server): bash Copy code RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L] Then refresh the permalinks as mentioned in Step 1. 9. SSL or Mixed Content Issues If your site uses SSL (https), make sure that the new page is being served over HTTPS and not HTTP. Sometimes, mixed content issues (where some resources are loaded over HTTP while the page is HTTPS) can break the page.

Hello, can you make a tutorial on how to hide a tab on a specific page please.

[@visualmodo]

What tab are you referring to?

[@TechTalkAIYT]

If we change our page to private, Will it affect the SEO? And will it stop showing in Google Search ? I have created 3 demo menu pages , but only want to show 1 . Let me know, if it will work if I private other 2 pages in a live website? Thanks in advance

[@visualmodo]

If those pages are old on your site, and google already indexed it, it may keeps there, but if someone clicks on it, will loads your site's 404 page template and this will affect your SEO

[@TechTalkAIYT]

@@visualmodo Any suggestions how to make it correct?

[@visualmodo]

Do all the changes on your site, generate a sitemap xml and submit it to your google webmaster tools (search console) this is a gentle way to ask Google to re-index your site kzbin.info/www/bejne/nZzJh3VufaefgLs

hello. how to restore the deleted menu? i accidentally deleted it in bulk because i have two home bar so i tried to delete the other one but after the home menu was missing.

[@visualmodo]

Do you have a site backup? It's the only way, but I think it's easier to create the menu again.
