I&#8217;m not excly sure where I am with this issue.<\/p>\n<p>Like others, I updated RS SSL and then all articles got 404 errors. Resetting the Permalinks fixed the problem but only for about 10 minutes, then it was back to 404 errors.<\/p>\n<p>To make a long story short, I grabbed another RS SSL updated today and also manually updated RS SSL PRO.<\/p>\n<p>I then resaved my Permalinks. So far so good.<\/p>\n<p>However, now I have an htaccess file that is stripped down to this:<\/p>\n<p><code><\/code>#Begin Really Simple Security<br \/>\n&lt;IfModule mod_rewrite.c&gt;<br \/>\nRewriteEngine on<br \/>\nRewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on [NC]<br \/>\nRewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^\/\\.well-known\/acme-challenge\/<br \/>\nRewriteRule ^(.*)$ https:\/\/%{HTTP_HOST}\/$1 [R=301,L]<br \/>\n&lt;\/IfModule&gt;<\/p>\n<p>#End Really Simple Security<br \/>\n# BEGIN WordPress<br \/>\n# The directives (lines) between &#8220;BEGIN WordPress&#8221; and &#8220;END WordPress&#8221; are<br \/>\n# dynamically generated, and should only be modified via WordPress filters.<br \/>\n# Any changes to the directives between these markers will be overwritten.<br \/>\n&lt;IfModule mod_rewrite.c&gt;<br \/>\nRewriteEngine On<br \/>\nRewriteRule .* &#8211; [E=HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%{HTTP:Authorization}]<br \/>\nRewriteBase \/<br \/>\nRewriteRule ^index\\.php$ &#8211; [L]<br \/>\nRewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f<br \/>\nRewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d<br \/>\nRewriteRule . \/index.php [L]<br \/>\n&lt;\/IfModule&gt;<\/p>\n<p># END WordPress<code><\/code><\/p>\n<p>My old htaccess file had a lot more code although frankly I can&#8217;t remember why most of it is in there. <\/p>\n<p>Am I okay now? During the several RS SSL updates I would revert to 404 errors, then reset the Permalinks, and it would be fine for about 10 minutes. Then back to 404 errors without me doing anything. I&#8217;m hoping it is stable now.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-16167645","topic","type-topic","status-publish","hentry","topic-tag-404-errors"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic\/16167645","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/topic"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic\/16167645\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=16167645"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
