 * [13 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/functioninclude-once-errors/)
 * I have 300 404 errors in webmaster tools. I can’t work out where they are from.
   They all seem to include “function.include-once”.
 * For example, this URL a returns a 404 error: [http://www.rewardcharts4kids.com/2013/02/function.include-once](http://www.rewardcharts4kids.com/2013/02/function.include-once)
 * It is linked from:
    [http://www.rewardcharts4kids.com/2013/02/](http://www.rewardcharts4kids.com/2013/02/)
   [http://www.rewardcharts4kids.com/2013/02/function.include-once](http://www.rewardcharts4kids.com/2013/02/function.include-once)
 * I have no idea how to work out what is causing these errors.
 * Any help will be much appreciated.

 * I guess these are nonexistent URLs, but detected/ indexed by Google as if they
   exist. Is it so?
 * BTW, do they appear in your site map?

 * Thanks for the reply.
    No, they do not appear in my site map. Both the pages 
   that have a 404 and the pages that link to the 404 page do not appear in my sitemap.
 * I have no idea where they come from.

 * That means such URLs do not exist. They are actually created by Google’s own 
   faulty script. You can ask Google to ignore them – go to your WMT account.
 * Review a similar thread here:

 * I am having the exact same issue! Did this solution work out for you? Please 
   tell me what you did to fix this.

 * I still have not managed to fix them or understand what is causing them. Even
   if I fix then in Webmaster Tools (as Krishna suggested) they still appear in 
   my error log. It seems like something is pointing to this URL but I have no idea
   what.
 * If you ever find a solution then please share (so will I).

 * Hi,
    We’ve just had the same issue pop up in our google webmaster tools. I’ve
   crawled the site using xenu – link sleuth, and cannot see any reference to the
   the 404 error found by the google crawler. eg /privacy-policy/function.include-
   once
 * I’ve done a fair bit of searching and can’t seem to find the cause of this.
    
   My assumption is that a PHP file is causing an error somewhere which in turn 
   places a link into the page. What I’m confused about is that it should be visible
   with the link sleuth software…? but the link sleuth is not picking anything.
 * We did have issues previously with a mysql max packet size but this was fixed.
   
   We currently have 15 errors with this symptom.
 * Any help or direction here is greatly appreciated.
