Hello @jpclyons, I believe a permalink flash will solve your problem. You can get the permalink under settings in your admin panel. Just go there and click the ‘save changes’ button. Let me know if this works or if you face more issues.

404 indicates failure to communicate with the server. Reasons for this failure to communicate with the server can vary.
– it could be configuration issue
– it could be memory issue – it could be permalinks issue, try reviewing this: How to fix 404 error when using Pretty Permalinks? – it could be optimization issue
– it could be a conflict with plugin: try resetting the plugin folder ; https://www.wpbeginner.com/plugins/how-to-deactivate-all-plugins-when-not-able-to-access-wp-admin/
– it could be a conflict with theme: try switching to the default theme for a moment via FTP and see if that resolves the issue.
– check for .htaccess file presence and check if the default wordpress mod-rewrite code is there or not. There are times when .htaccess file is not writable or gotten deleted
– Check the server error log for your hosting account for any specific error message. Ask your webhost for assistance to locate them.
I do not have access to the Admin WP feature. It gives the critical error message whenever I attempt to edit the page. Maybe I could manually edit the htaccess file? Make it point to the correct path?

I logged into Cpanel and renamed the plugins folder to pluginsOld.
One of the plug-ins was causing this. Then I reset the Permalinks and all pages displayed properly. Good to know this if you no longer can access the WP admin feature.
