In Google Search Console/Webmaster Tools, I found 404 error URLs with this pattern: example.com/page-name/example.com
This is happening to all pages, posts, and even category type.

For example:


Here is the .htaccess file:



Does anyone know what might be causing this?

Your "copyright anchor" in the footer of your page is missing the protocol/scheme (and arguably a URL-path):

<a href="example.com">COSTPRODUCT</a> Copyright © 2017


This will be seen as a relative URL and will consequently result in an invalid link of the form example.com/page-name/example.com.

This is happening to all pages, posts, and even category type.


The above link appears on every page, so yes, you will get a similar 404 being reported on every page.
