404 Errors on my Home Page

X Theme
URL: www.littleriverbedandbreakfast.com

This is my first website using WordPress and am just knowledgeable enough to be dangerous. This is my own personal website (I don’t design sites for a living). I am sure I have multiple issues going on but the first one that is standing out to me are the 404 errors I have on the home page.

I went to my home page -> right mouse clicked -> Inspect Element -> Console Tab. Noticed the following errors.

[Error] Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 (Not Found) (cs-head.js.map, line 0)
[Error] Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 (Not Found) (x.js.map, line 0)
[Error] Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 (Not Found) (cs-body.js.map, line 0)

Not sure what to do.

Hello There,

Thanks for posting in!

You can ignore this error as this does not have any impact in your site. Those missing files were just a source map files.

A source map provides a way of mapping code within a compressed file back to it’s original position in a source file. This means that – with the help of a bit of software – you can easily debug your applications even after your assets have been optimized. The Chrome and Firefox developer tools both ship with built-in support for source maps.

Note: Support for source maps is enabled by default in Firefox’s developer tools. You may need to enable support manually in Chrome. To do this, launch the Chrome dev tools and open the Settings pane (cog in the bottom right corner). In the General tab make sure that Enable JS source maps and Enable CSS source maps are both ticked.
