• I would like to update my permalinks, which I did no problem. I know that WordPress adds rewrites to the htaccess file so that your search engine results are accessible from the old links. However, when I changed my permalinks, that was not the case. Going to the W3 Total Cache page, it tells me that the page cache is not active, and when I choose auto-install, these permalinks do not work with the Google (old) search results. I have tried to deactivate W3 then change permalinks, I also uploaded all my content to my CDN. Can anyone tell me what I am failing to do?

    Can you disable page caching and then re-enable it?

    Sorry, what do you mean exactly?

    Disabling W3 Total Cache, changing the permalinks to %postid, re-enabling W3, and uploading all to CDN (I am using Push) does not seem work. When going to the old permalink, it does not find the new permalink, therefore 404’ing.

    No ideas? Any troubleshooting assistance would be greatly appreciated.

    You should try to delete the W3TC rules from the .htaccess file and let it re-add them so that your changes are respected.
