404 errors on generatepress stylesheets

Hi Linda,

May you kindly link us to the site in question?

You may use the private information field if you prefer: https://docs.generatepress.com/article/using-the-premium-support-forum/#private-information

Hope to hear from you soon. :)

Have done so.

Thank you

Thank you Linda! I tried viewing your website’s pages and I couldn’t see a specific 404 issue.

Moreover, see David’s response here on a similar topic: https://generatepress.com/forums/topic/generateblocks-css-styles-404-not-found/#post-1623808

You could just ignore these alerts as these are style sheet requests as mentioned by David.

Hope this clarifies. :)

Thanks. I did see David's response but he asked questions that were never answered so incomplete. I'm concerned that Google considers them 404s?

“If Google finds a link somewhere on the web that points to a URL on your domain, it may try to crawl that link, whether any content actually exists there or not; and when it does, your server should return a 404 if there's nothing there to find…If you see 404s reported in Webmaster Tools for URLs that don't exist on your site, you can safely ignore them. We don't know which URLs are important to you vs. which are supposed to 404, so we show you all the 404s we found on your site and let you decide which, if any, require your attention.”

Reference: https://developers.google.com/search/blog/2011/05/do-404s-hurt-my-site#:~:text=A%3A%20If%20Google%20finds%20a,there's%20nothing%20there%20to%20find.

As per Google, you can safely ignore them.

If you would like to try to fix them, try regenerating your CSS files as such in GenerateBlocks > Settings: https://share.getcloudapp.com/4guKeOPR

If that doesn’t work, try making it Inline Embedding as opposed to an External file, and then test in Screaming Frog again.

Please clear all caching mechanisms set in your website before testing.

Kindly let us know how it goes. :)

Thank you very much!

You’re welcome Linda! Glad to be of assistance! Feel free to reach out anytime you’ll need assistance with anything else. :)
