I don't know why Wordpress worked follow that way

I have a problem with a Wordpress permalink.

These are my steps to show the problem:

1) in admin > pages: I create new page call "GoodMorning" and I have slug "goodmorning", on frontend, I run ://my_domain/goodmorning will show the content of this page

2) Now, I run ://my_domain/find-me/goodmorning it will auto redirect to ://my_domain/goodmorning

/find-me/ : this is any name and this text does not exist on wordpress slug, category, page, post, ....

Please let me know why. I want it to show a 404 page when I run ://my_domain/find-me/goodmorning.

Thanks All.

Adding this (to functions.php) should stop that redirect.

remove_action('template_redirect', 'redirect_canonical');

If you look at the documentation for redirect_canonical here:

Will also attempt to find the correct link when a user enters a URL that does not exist based on exact WordPress query. Will instead try to parse the URL or query in an attempt to figure the correct page to go to.

I assume that's what you're trying to prevent based on your question.

If you need the other functionality of redirect_canonical you can just cancel the redirect by returning false to this filter, like so:

add_filter('redirect_canonical', '__return_false');

You need to flush your permalinks configuration afterwards:

  1. In the main menu find "Settings > Permalinks".
  2. Scroll down if needed and click "Save Changes".
  3. Rewrite rules and permalinks are flushed.
