1. Access Dashboard:

4. Access Permalinks Settings:
   • Once on the Permalinks page, scroll to the bottom of the settings page.
5. Save Changes:
   • Without making any changes to the existing settings, click the “Save Changes” button at the bottom of the Permalinks page.

   • Allow the system to process the changes. This action is a quick way to refresh taxonomies and sync up links and pages.
7. Check Pages:
   • After saving changes, go back to the pages that were not working or experiencing issues.

   • If the issue persists, you may want to repeat the process to ensure all taxonomies are refreshed.

This quick fix involves a simple refresh of permalinks settings, and it often resolves issues with pages not working correctly. If problems persist, further investigation may be necessary.
