    I recently migrated a small 2-page site to an internal server using the Duplicator plugin. Now I am having trouble getting the results page to show.

    I am able to edit the page, but anytime it is viewed it returns 404 Not Found citing the url does not exist

    To find out what is causing the problem, enable logging on your WordPress site.

    The wp-config.php file should include the following lines just before the line “/ * That’s all, stop editing! Happy blogging. * /”:

    define ('WP_DEBUG', true);

// Enable Debug logging to the /wp-content/debug.log file
define ('WP_DEBUG_LOG', true);
/ * That’s all, stop editing! Happy blogging. * /

    After it, reproduce the 404 error and see the fatal errors on your wp-content/debug.log file.

    After finding the cause of the problem, we can move on to the solution.

    One more idea:
    Please check that if there is a “Search Results” page in the Pages menu of your WP Admin area, the slug of this page must be “search_gcse”.
    If it does not exist, deactivate and activate the WP Google Search plugin to create this page.
    If it exists, you can try deleting the page and re-creating it by deactivating and activating the plugin.

    I have had the same issue, and noticed that the Search Page Target URL is showing: “/search_gcse_trashed/” and it would not change by deactivating and activating the plugin.
    Any idea? How can I delete the page “/search_gcse_trashed/” and get the page “/search_gcse/ back”?</p>
    <p>Thanks

    You can restore the page from the trash.
    Alternatively delete this permanently, then deactivate and activate the plugin.

    You can delete the page this way:
