    First change your Wordpress Admin. password & stop letting people mess up your site.

    Look at one of the old Google Cache or Wayback pages & change the URL structure back to the old permalink.

    1. Please go to link Google Webmaster tools
    2. Then select the name of the blog You will be checked
    3. Click the Crawl >> Crawl Error is in the left side menu.
    4. You will see some link error

    Once you know what the link is now how to resolve URL error Crawl Error:

    1. Click the Remove URLs Google Index >>
    2. Copy the link name that the error was when my friend checked the crawl error

    3. Click Create a New Removal Request and paste the link error in the copy earlier.
    4. click Continue
    5. In Reason select Remove page from the search result and cache

    6. Click Submit Request
    7. Done. Staying wait until google link request to take action against the error.

    8. Do the same if there is another link error.

    Frequently check your blog stats in Webmaster Tools, there is a link in case other errors or duplicate content etc..

    Good luck.

      I don't understand why you're giving this as an advice. Why would you want to ask Google to remove the links from index? Or why would someone be willing to do this 1700+ times just to get rid of a message in GWT?

      Much better to fix the URL structure or redirect the 404's if it's possible. Crawl errors go away with a successful crawl (duh!).
      Signature
      Links in signature will not help your SEO. Not on this site, and not on any other forum.
      Who told me this? An ex Google web spam engineer.

      What's your excuse?

        Exactly!

        DO NOT ever remove URLs from the index unless you never want those pages indexed in the future. As you pointed out, you just have to fix your website and Google's crawler will re-crawl it and errors will go away over time.

        By correcting or URLs in Webmaster Tools Crawl Error can improve SEO on your website. So that the SERP is not decreased. If you do not want in this case, you can use the other way, that is by checking all the crawl error and you click mark as fixed and finished.:p
