Title: Theme Settings "Apply" Button throws a 404 Error Last modified: August 21, 2016 --- # Theme Settings "Apply" Button throws a 404 Error * [tzviyb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tzviyb/) * (@tzviyb) * [13 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/theme-settings-apply-button-throws-a-404-error/) * Hi there, * I’m new to wordpress so bare with me 🙂 I bought a theme from themeforest and started my blog. All good. * After a few days I realised it wasn’t suitable so I purchased another theme and uploaded it via ftp into themes folder successfully. I then tried to change some of the theme settings but after clicking apply – it throws a 404 error. * It almost definetly has something to do with the new theme. But I have no idea how to fix. * If any expert out there could help that would be amazing! * Thanks in advance Viewing 1 replies (of 1 total) * Moderator [t-p](https://wordpress.org/support/users/t-p/) * (@t-p) * [13 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/theme-settings-apply-button-throws-a-404-error/#post-3656421) * > I bought a theme from themeforest * Since you are using a commercial theme, you may want to contact the theme’s vendor.
