Hello,
Can you confirm if the issue started after updating the plugin to the latest version? If so, I recommend trying to revert to the previous version to check if the issue persists.
To roll back to a previous version of the plugin, follow these steps:
- Visit the plugin’s page on the WordPress repository:
All 404 Redirect to Homepage Plugin
- Scroll down to the “Previous Versions” section.
- Select an earlier version from the dropdown (e.g., the version you were using before the issue occurred).
- Click “Download” and save the file to your computer.
- Go to your WordPress dashboard → Plugins, deactivate and delete the current version.
- Upload and activate the previous version manually.
If the issue persists even after downgrading, try temporarily deactivating the plugin and rechecking your sitemaps in Google Search Console to confirm if the plugin is the root cause.
Let me know how it goes or if you need further assistance.
Best regards
Hello again,
After testing the plugin, we found no issues, and it is functioning as expected. The 404 error occurs because the sitemap page is genuinely not found, prompting our plugin to redirect users to the homepage.
We recommend checking the sitemap URL or reviewing the sitemap plugin settings, as the issue seems to be related to the sitemap’s availability rather than our plugin.
Please consult your site developer to verify the sitemap configuration or provide us with more details so we can assist you further.
