Page not found after publishing event

After publishing an event and clicking the permalink in the event, I get a “page cannot be found” error. I have gone to settings, permalinks, changed the type to plain and it works fine. Then when I change it back to “Post Name”, the error returns. What do I need to do?

Thanks!

You might need to move your site to a server that supports post name permalinks. There is some information about hosting requirements on this page:

All of my other pages work fine with permalinks. It’s only my events that don’t and only after they are published.

I ran the requirements check plugin and it returned “Your server supports the minimum requirements but may experience some difficulties with all features”

Should I not see the page listed in my WordPress “pages” list cuz it’s not there?

Well it did say “but may experience some difficulties with all features” so there’s that.

The other thing you can check is, you go to Event Espresso > Events > Templates and change the event slug setting to something like
upcoming-events
or something else if you already have an upcoming-events page. Anything unique will do so long as it’s not events or event.

OK, I figured out the issue. I had a calendar event plugin installed that was using the slug “events”. So, I changed the slug for the calendar and now espresso is working.

Thank you for your help.
