 * Hi,
 * Do you remember what last changes did you make to your website (like installing
   a plugin, changing folder permission, etc) that could have created this problem??
 * There can be multiple reasons for this issue.
 * You can give this a shot – rename the .htaccess file in your wordpress directory
   to htaccess.txt and check if things work.
 * You can also try to contact your hosting provider if they can help you with something.
 * Let me know if you need more help.
 * regards,
    Shreyans

 * Hi,
 * Check permission for your folders/files.

 * If you are not familiar with that, try to contact your hosting provider, he can
   help you with this.

 * Go to your cpanel -> Go to File Manager -> Go to Public_html folder -> you can
   see a file named .htaccess just edit it, then delete content already have, add
   below code:
 *     ```
       # BEGIN WordPress
       <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
       RewriteEngine On
       RewriteBase /
       RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
       RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
       RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
       RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
       </IfModule>
   
       # END WordPress
       ```
   
 * then save it.

 * … just to clarify, .htaccess file above is default file. If you use some cache
   plugin or maybe some redirect plugin/optimize plugin it can be different.
