I’ve just installed EE4.4 on an existing WordPress 4.0 installation. It’s at http://urantia-association.org

We already have an event section on the website with some static pages we’ve been using to provide information until we have a system like EE4 ready to go. But as soon as we activate EE4, all of these pages are disabled – they become 404s or just say nothing is found. This doesn’t give us any time to learn how to use EE4 and add events there while still maintaining the old pages. We have important events approaching, so this is a big problem for us. I saw there is an events url in the template settings that is probably part of the issue, but it isn’t editable like the other settings there.

Is there anything we can do to use the plugin without obstructing these pages?

Hi Margaret,

You can update the slug from events to something else. Here is an example of how to do that:

Once you have that code snippet in please, be sure to browse to WP-admin –> Settings –> Permalinks.

Thanks


Lorenzo
