How to rebuild permalinks on WordPress?

We all know the permanent URLs for each of our blog entries, web pages, and other archived pages constitute Permalinks. The permalink should aim to produce a simple URL structure that is understandable to both people and search engines.

However, while accessing the WordPress site, we may sometimes encounter a 404 error. It may be due to the WordPress moved to a new server or maybe because of a new plugin. The error occurs as a result of corrupted URLs. One quick and simple solution for those problems is to rebuild the permalinks. Regenerating and fixing the WordPress permalink structure occurs when we regenerate the links. It is a simple process as WordPress will take care of the process with just a click.

The steps to rebuild permalinks on WordPress is as follows:

1. Firstly, log into the WordPress dashboard.
2. Then go to Settings » Permalinks from the WordPress admin menu.
3. Now we are on the WordPress Permalinks Settings page. We’ll see the permalink structure that we’re currently using.
4. Simply scroll to the bottom of the page and press the “Save Changes” button to rebuild the permalinks on WordPress.
