: New Wordpress posts generate 404 error I had a working installation of WordPress, and I recently encountered an issue where when I tried to login to the back-end, the browser would redirect

I had a working installation of WordPress, and I recently encountered an issue where when I tried to login to the back-end, the browser would redirect to the login URL of the previous domain WordPress was installed on.

I fixed this by reinstalling WordPress, and I can now login to the backend, but any new posts I make, or old posts I have generate 404 errors.

Additionally, if I try to navigate to any category page, I again receive a 404 error.

I have looked at the wp_posts table of my database, and the GUID field each contains the correct domain name and URL structure.

What should I be checking here?

Site in question.

Clear every information on your MySQL database for wordpress and try reinstalling. It's possible the new database is conflicting with the old one.

Adding to this answer:

Could be permissions issues with your .htaccess file as well.

Try resaving your permalink structure (even if they seem correct). Sometimes when you are messing with wordpress, the htaccess file gets out of wack. I've had a similar issue to what you are describing and resaving the permalinks fixed the problem.

Check in the wp_options table for the option siteurl and make sure it contains the value of your new domain name.
