 * Hello
    I have set on my permalinks to be [https://www.domain.es/%postname%](https://www.domain.es/%postname%)(
   without the last slash) But I find that plugin listings default to [https://www.domain.es/](https://www.domain.es/)../
   listing/, what makes a ngninx 404 error. Any idea how to sort this out? (As site
   is in development I have tried to set default permalinks to [https://www.domain.es/%postname%/](https://www.domain.es/%postname%/)(
   WITH the final slash) But that makes the whole site 404. Thank you

 * 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,

 * 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](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.

 * 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
