Title: 404 Errors on Posts/Pages Last modified: August 20, 2016 --- # 404 Errors on Posts/Pages * [brettschuler](https://wordpress.org/support/users/brettschuler/) * (@brettschuler) * [14 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/404-errors-on-postspages/) * Hi there: * I am running WordPress 3.3.1 and Multisite with several subdomain blogs installed. I can’t get WordPress to Publish Posts or Pages. They only go into Draft mode. When clicking on the link in another browser I get a 404 error file not found. I am pretty sure that a setting is missing or typo in settings. Any ideas? The url is [http://lovingmyneighbor.org/cca/](http://lovingmyneighbor.org/cca/) Is there a reference chart for Multisite settings. * Thanks!

Or, just the _main_ site? * You don’t have any plugins that are “scheduled draft” type plugins or something similar do you? * Moderator [Ipstenu (Mika Epstein)](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ipstenu/) * (@ipstenu) * 🏳️‍🌈 Advisor and Activist * [14 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/404-errors-on-postspages/#post-2703906) * What plugins are you using? * Thread Starter [brettschuler](https://wordpress.org/support/users/brettschuler/) * (@brettschuler) * [14 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/404-errors-on-postspages/#post-2703911) * Yes when publishing a post or page on every page it will first Publish, but then it switches to Draft or Pending Review. I am not running any scheduled draft plugins. There are some redirect plugins. I did try turning all the plugins off by renaming the plugin folder.

You can’t edit POSTS? (Media I could understand as permissions issues.) What happens when you try to save a post? * This is looking more and more like a DB problem. Try running a repair via phpMyAdmin.
