Could you try these, please? Knowledge Base » Common Troubleshooting Tips

yes i’ve check all that from you link you gave me. Nothing has changed since this break. no new plug in upgrades or additions. Same theme as well.

Okay.

Could you submit your site’s info? Let me know after you sent it, please. Thanks! s2Member® » Private Contact Form

And how can I reproduce the permalinks problem to see it? Is it after you do something in particular, or after a certain time, or it still seems random to you?

I have just submitted my info to access my site and sever via the private contact form.

The permalinks problem happens randomly. I would reset the permalinks then sometimes several hours later or days later the issue arises again.

Thanks, got the email.

s2Member doesn’t touch the permalinks, and I haven’t seen anyone else reporting this problem, so it’s something else in your installation.

I see that you have 47 active plugins, plus a couple of must-use ones, and 37 inactive ones. I really think it’s one of those others doing this to your permalinks.

I know it seems like s2Member because it started happening around the time of your last update for it, but sorting your plugins by last modified in FTP, I see that after s2Member (May 17) you updated BuddyPress (May 17) and Squirrly SEO (May 20).

I’d first test deactivating Squirrly SEO for some time to see if you have to reset permalinks again after a while.
