Routing to Wrong URL

I have created a new event with the permalink being http://www.artnookaiken.com/events/asco-painting-party/. However when you click “view event” or even when you copy and paste this permalink into your browser it somehow routes you to an old event that is no longer running at https://www.artnookaiken.com/events/hocus-pocus/

Please help

Hi there,

Can you make sure the event is published? Also, do you have any Redirection plugins activated on the site? If so you could check your Redirection list, there may be a redirection rule that’s set up where asco-painting-party would trigger a match to a redirection rule.

The event is published. And I don’t think I have any redirection rules and especially none that would redirect to the hocus-pocus event!

It looks like anything on your site with asco in the URL is set to redirect to hocus-pocus.

For example, all of the following non-existent pages on your site all redirect to a hocus-pocus page:

https://www.artnookaiken.com/asco/
http://www.artnookaiken.com/contact-us/asco/
http://www.artnookaiken.com/private-parties/asco/
https://www.artnookaiken.com/eat-drink-art/asco/

If you do not have a Redirection plugin settings page to check, the next place to look would be in the site’s .htaccess file.

You find the redirect and remove it.

It sounds like there’s a plugin involved then. Are there other plugins installed on the website other than Event Espresso? Especially SEO plugins or plugins that add redirects?
