 * As the message states – Google “thinks” there should be 404’s, but there aren’t.
   It hasn’t detected any 404’s.
 * It’s a matter of opinion as to whether or not the user experience is impacted
   by getting a 404 or not. In fact, many would argue that getting a 404 is more
   annoying than not. However, enhancing the user experience was not the purpose
   of this plugin – strange as that may sound. The purpose is to provide a quick
   and easy way of salvaging as much PageRank and traffic as possible for any missing
   pages, and the backlinks that may be linking to them.

   low disk space. I had to clear out space to resolve this issue.

 * I’m not a big fan of editing plugins that are bound to get overwritten anytime
   there is a plugin update. At any rate, here is my solution to addressing this
   issue. In your theme’s functions.php file, add the following:
 * `remove_action('template_redirect', 'ep_template_post_detailspage');`
 * This will disable the use of the plugin’s internal theme, and freeing you to 
   create your own within your theme. Simply create a **single-portfolio.php** file
   based off of your desired page/theme template, and work from the _easy-portfolio/
   themes/portfolio\_details.php_ theme file for pulling the elements of the portfolio
   you wish to use.

 * Drover,
 * I’m sorry to hear you’re having problems with this plugin. I have just updated
   the plugin. Please update and activate to the latest version.
 * If you’re still having issues, we need to explore possible conflicts. When you
   say you have the front page “set to redirect elsewhere” – which method are you
   using to accomplish this?

 * couponsncharities,
 * Thank you for bringing this issue to my attention. There are 2 potential causes
   that come to mind that might be impacting the functionality of my plugin:
 * 1. You have another plugin or function within your theme that handles URL rewriting,
   and it’s conflicting with my plugin. To test this, temporarily change the theme
   to a default, unaltered version of the standard twentyten theme that comes with
   every installation of WordPress. Also, temporarily disable all plugins except
   mine. Then try to create a 404. When the plugin redirects you, you’ll know there’s
   a conflict with a plugin or theme you just deactivated.
 * 2. You recently moved your installation of WordPress to a new directory or changed
   the site URL. Use this helpful guide to learn how to properly change the site
   URL: [http://codex.wordpress.org/Changing_The_Site_URL](http://codex.wordpress.org/Changing_The_Site_URL).
 * If after all of that, you’re still experiencing this issue, please let me know,
   and describe in detail (to include your blog URL) the issue you’re still experiencing,
   so that I’ll be able to research your issue further. Thanks!
 * – Don
