I recently moved my WordPress site to a new domain through my hosting provider’s migration service. All URLs were supposed to stay the same, yet many pages now throw 404 errors. The backup is intact, so the data is there—I just need the links to resolve correctly again. What I need you to do • Trace why WordPress is serving 404s even though no permalinks were changed. • Repair whatever is causing them—whether that’s permalinks, .htaccess rules, database paths, or missing 301 redirects. • Test the fix across the entire site (posts, pages, media, and any custom post types) so every previously live URL loads normally without errors. Acceptance 1. Browsing the site produces no 404 pages. 2. All legacy URLs return the correct content or an appropriate 301 redirect. 3. You provide a short summary of the changes so I can replicate them on a staging copy if needed. Familiarity with WordPress core, cPanel/File Manager, phpMyAdmin, .htaccess, and tools like Redirection or Search Console will help you finish quickly. I’ll provide admin and hosting access as soon as we start.

Having worked extensively with WordPress, I understand the pain points that can arise during migrations. In fact, I have a record of successful WordPress migrations where clients faced similar 404 issues, but were then able to navigate smoothly with my interventions. Remediating these problems is a complex task, but as an experienced hand, I know it could be caused by unresolved redirects and database alterations that generate incorrect permalinks. My knowledge with PHP and WordPress core will allow me to trace those errors down thoroughly to identify the root cause and resolve them efficiently.

Hi, this is a common post-migration issue and I can fix it quickly. 404s after a domain move are usually caused by permalink structure, incorrect site URLs in the database, or .htaccess not regenerating properly. I’ll check WordPress settings, database paths, rewrite rules, and any missing redirects to make sure every URL resolves correctly. I’ll test posts, pages, media, and custom post types to confirm there are no broken links left. Once done, I’ll share a short summary of what was changed so you can repeat it on staging if needed. I can start right away.
