It has nothing to do with user roles “subscriber, author, editor,admin etc”
It basically a setting for enabling/disabling the users pages, if its disabled, its not going to work 🙂

I updated my code here and also on your site.

In this case its not working because its looking for “mixto-restaurant” but the actual url is “mixto-restaurant-1”

If this is wide spread we could try altering the query a bit but if its just that listing then its not really worth it.

Hi Pat,

function _my_fix_listings_404s(){
	if( is_404() ){

		$url = $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];
		$slug = basename($url);
		global $wpdb;
		$post_id = $wpdb->get_var( $wpdb->prepare( "SELECT ID FROM $wpdb->posts WHERE post_type IN ('gd_place','gd_event') AND post_status = 'publish' AND post_name = %s", $slug));

		if(!empty($post_id)){
			wp_safe_redirect( esc_url( get_permalink( $post_id) ), 301 );
			exit;
		}
	}
}
add_action( 'template_redirect', '_my_fix_listings_404s' );

What am i checking here? The search seems to work, no 404’s?

“i enabled category in url but then google still gives them without the category in it”

The ones i checked from this search https://wpgeodirectory.com/support/topic/epic-404-on-listings/#post-388616

Now work, so i gess google has a mix and mash of some with and some without, just pick one and stick with it.

Check if there are many links google has to broken urls, you might have to do some redirects.

What visability options are u currently using? Can you provide wp-admin details in a private reply and i’ll take a look.
