    Hello,

    I would say if adding a trailing slash makes your whole site 404 then you have a nginx config problem, please ask your server admin to assist on correcting this.

    Let us know how you get on or if we can help further.

    Thanks,

    Stiofan

    Well, techincally thats wrong.
    My site works fine, is the fact that plugin work with url ending in slash the issue, as my site has permalinks set without them.
    So if I dont have a choice in the plugin to choose that, neither a solution, I obviously will uninstall it and use another one.
    As you can imagine im not creating a whole site again from zero just for a plugin 🙂
    Thanks

    Just FYI, using permalink without trailing slash on a WordPress powered website is fundamentally wrong.

    No slash means FILE : yoursite.com/file.html
    Slash means DIRECTORY : yoursite.com/directory/

    You can read here directly from Google and it’s a 7 years old news: https://webmasters.googleblog.com/2010/04/to-slash-or-not-to-slash.html

    So the real question should be, why no slash?

    Thanks

    Just to add to this i tested on my demo site and running the site with no trailing slash had no problems, i would still suspect its a nginx config problem.

    Thanks,

    Paolo: Please read carefully the link you provide because IT DOESNT SUGGEST using no slash AT ALL.
    It simply indicates to choose one of them (OBVIOUSLY)

    Stiofan: Thanks for your support that does not help.

    Ill get another plugin thank you

    Hi cloud,

    If your WordPress install won’t work with a trailing slash that is a server config problem not a GD problem which is way beyond our support, i had suggested what the problem might be, and i had confirmed it working on my test site which is part of me trying to help solve the problem. It might be a plugin conflict but from your description i would lean towards a nginx config problem.

    If you paste your nginx config file here i will tell you if i see any problems with it.

    Thanks,

    Stiofan
