    Hi there

    All of a sudden I am getting some of the above after every url. Nothing has been done to the website so I wondered if you had come across this and possible might know what it is. I have looked at permalinks and all fine but then nothing has been touched so really weird.

    Many thanks.

    Your permalinks is definitely set to something other than the default option? Try using the “post name” option in permalinks.

    They are already set to post name.

    As I said nothing has been done to the website it just started doing that all of a sudden.

    Hi There,

    You could try testing for a plugin conflict. You can do this by deactivating all third party plugins, and seeing if the problem remains. If it’s fixed, you’ll know a plugin caused the problem, and you can narrow down which one by reactivating them one at a time.

    Hope it helps 🙂

    Hi there

    Nothing I do can get rid of the extra bits in the url

    https://www.opencollege.info/about/?v=346407d570ed#

    I have checked the permalinks – all fine
    I have checked the plugins one by one – all fine
    I have checked the htaccess file – all fine

    This has happened all of a sudden

    Any other Ideas?

    Hi Eileen,

    That URL is coming from standard base address setting in Woocommerce. When you choose Geolocation with caching support for page, it will add that ?v=xxxx string because it’s capturing the visitors base address

    You can see more info here: https://woocommerce.wordpress.com/2015/07/02/making-geolocation-static-cache-friendly-in-2-4/

    Hope this explains it.
