Instead of going to my "Thank You" page, they get a 404 error after opt-in?? Help needed!

2 replies
Good morning!

I've got several websites set up with the same Wordpress theme & on every single one of them, folks are getting a "404 Error" page when they opt-in instead of seeing my "Thank You" page.

I use 1ShoppingCart to set up the form code & insert it in the sidebar widget section.

I create a 'private' "Thank YOu" page in my Wordpress site & make sure the correct page url is in the form code....and yet, instead of going to that page, visitors always end up at a 404 Error page after opt-ing in.

Anyone know why or where I should begin to get it fixed? One of my sites is listed in my signature line- you're welcome to try it out for yourself.

Thanks in advance for any help!

    Hi Rachel

    If you have a "Private" page - no one will see it unless they are logged in.

    You could use a plug in and "hide" the thank you page. This is only one of many WordPress › WP Hide Post WordPress Plugins It says "hide post" but it does pages too.

    Hope that helps

    Man, that just saved me a bunch of time. Thanks so much for the quick fix - I just fixed 5 sites in about 5 minutes!

    I appreciate it!!
