Community pages return a 404 after changing the base slug

marco marco 2 months ago Resolved

I changed the base slug from community to forum and now every community page 404s. The settings saved correctly.

I suspect rewrite rules — what's the right way to regenerate them?

Appreciate the clear steps. The dry-run tip in particular saved me from a mistake I would not have caught otherwise.

This matches my experience exactly. The hard part is staying consistent once the initial novelty wears off.

We ran into the same situation last quarter. What worked for us was starting small and only adding complexity when a real need showed up.

This is the answer I wish I had found six months ago. Would have saved me a weekend of trial and error.

Tried this on a staging copy first and it behaved exactly as described. Confident enough to roll it to production now.

Thanks for writing this up. Bookmarking it — the kind of thing I will want to reference again in a month.

Great point. I had not considered the angle you raised in the second paragraph — it reframes the whole thing for me.
