# 404 Errors Using Scheduled Post Updates

 * I see there’s another thread about 404s but my use case is a little different.
 * We use a plugin to schedule post updates (both Tao Scheduled Updates and Revisionise).
 * With either plugin, when we schedule a post update the underlying post results
   in a 404 error.
 * This only happens on posts where we’re using a custom permalink.
 * If I deactivate the Custom Permalinks plugin, it works just fine.
 * It is clearly an issue with Custom Permalinks.

 * These are the 2 plugins where the issue is present:
 * [https://wordpress.org/plugins/tao-schedule-update/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/tao-schedule-update/)
   
   [https://wordpress.org/plugins/revisionize/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/revisionize/)
 * If it was just one, I’d say it was possibly an issue with that plugin. But it’s
   both.

 * [@lsilver](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lsilver/) Welcome to the Custom
   Permalinks Support Forum..!
 * I’ll check the issue with both of the plugins you mentioned and would update 
   you about the result.
 * Thanks,

 * [@lsilver](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lsilver/) I have check tao-schedule-
   update plugin and everything is working fine for me till yet. I have created 
   the post with custom permalink and then schedule that post and twice but no issues
   occurred.
 * I am using the Custom Permalink latest version.
 * Can you please verify and provide if there is any particular scenario when this
   issue is occurred.
 * Thanks,
    Sami

 * Thanks for checking.
 * Here’s a screencast showing what’s going on using Revisionize (Tao hasn’t been
   updated in over a year so we’re migrating):
 * [https://soapbox.wistia.com/videos/g0OMbH6ljQ](https://soapbox.wistia.com/videos/g0OMbH6ljQ)
 * In sum:
 * no custom permalink = no issues, original post works when revision is pending
 * with custom permalink = original post returns 404 when revision is pending
 * I’m happy to get you a login if you want to troubleshoot on a staging server.

 * I tried changing permalinks with no plugin. Everything worked as expected.
 * I then added a different custom permalink manager and went through the same test
   as above. Everything worked as expected.
 * Your plugin has been on this site for awhile, and there were no problems with
   it until the recent update.
 * My only conclusion, supported by others experiencing 404s, is that something 
   is different now and it’s introduced a rather serious bug.
 * Happy to have you help and login for yourself. But this seems pretty serious 
   along with the other 404 issues.

 * Now for the why: The internet is a wonderful place full of very nice people and
   a few very bad ones. I’m sure everyone here is very nice however, by giving some
   ones keys to your house you are trusting they wont steal anything. Likewise the
   person who takes the keys is now responsible for the house FOREVER.
