Why is my homepage redirecting to an old blog entry? WordPress
- SOLVED
When you visit https://www.wudrecords.co.uk, for some reason you are redirected to an old blog entry. If you visit https://www.wudrecords.co.uk/homepage, the page loads just fine.
Steps I've taken:
- Disabled all plugins
- Switched themes
- Checked permalink settings
- Confirmed the correct page is set as the homepage in Reading Settings
- Checked .htaccess is fine
- Run a scan with Wordfence to ensure there are no infected files
- Replaced all core WordPress files

So there is something in:
1) your server (nginx or Apache)
2) your files
3) your database
Download your whole site (files and database) and look for this string: /news/wud-records-our-bands-on-tv
Maybe you find there the solution.
Which is leading you there. Have you asked your hosting about it?

Hi there,
the only thing I could think of is to check Settings -> General -> Site Address (URL). Other than that requires to check server (Nginx/Apache) config files.
