Broken link nightmare

Hello,

I’m sorry to hear about the broken link issues you are facing on your blog. It seems like the broken links are incorrectly pointing to the main website absolutelypsychic.com, causing them to be broken.

To resolve this issue, you can follow these steps:

1. Check WordPress Address & Site Address Settings:

   • Navigate to Settings → General in your WordPress admin area.
   • Verify that both the WordPress Address and Site Address settings point to the correct version of your website (www or non-www).
   • Ensure that these settings are configured correctly to avoid errors.

2. Edit .htaccess File:

   • If the issue persists, you can add redirection rules to your website’s .htaccess file.
   • Go to WordPress Dashboard → Rank Math SEO → General Settings → Edit .htaccess.
   • Add the appropriate redirection rule to ensure the correct URL version is used.

If you need detailed instructions on how to edit the .htaccess file or need further assistance, please let us know. You can also refer to our knowledge base article on URL Incorrect Version Redirection for more guidance.
