Category links are broken 404

    Hi
    I have been dealing with a problem for a long time now on an almost daily basis.
    Category links are broken 404, WooCommerce categories only. That means most of them remain the same URL but become 404, some pull UXBLOCK from a nearby URL.

    The breaking happens randomly, I don’t notice anything in particular happening on the side of the dashboard while it’s happening.

    To fix the problem, the only thing that helps is to turn off rankmath and turn it back on. Then everything is fine.

    What is activated for me in RANKMATH is:
    Strip Category Base -links
    Remove base – woocommerce
    Remove category base – woocommerce

    Would appreciate help.
    Thanks!!

    Hello,

    Thank you for contacting Rank Math for help with your product category links breaking.

    Please go to your WordPress dashboard > Settings > Permalinks and click save changes without making any changes. This will flush out any old permalink settings. If that does not work, we might need to take a closer look at the settings. Please add your WordPress admin login details to the sensitive data area.

    Hope that helps. Please let us know if you have questions.

    Hello,

    I have updated the sensitive data as requested. Can you please check further?

    Thank you.

    Yes, I have done this a long time ago several times.
    I have attached the details.
    Thanks

    Hello,

    I checked your website, and everything is setup correctly. I checked your server settings and some of the limits are low, this can cause 404 errors. Please increase the limits to the following minimum values:

    
    PHP Memory Limit: 512M
    Max input time: 150
    PHP time limit: 120
    PHP max input variables: 1000
    

    Hope that helps. Please let us know if you have questions.

    I sent the details to the server administrator.
    They updated the limits.
    I hope it works out..
