Hi
I don’t have the AMP module active on my site but I do use the mobile plugin.
For some reason the theme is creating pages like this sample below: (note the /amp/ at the back)

This is picked up on my Google search console and creates a 404 page error.

How do I avoid this? Or do I just ignore these errors?

Hi,

If the AMP plugin is not active there will be no links generated with the /amp suffix by the theme, no point is doing so since they do not exist without an AMP plugin.
So such links would lead to 404 pages. Maybe you previously had an AMP plugin active, and the URLs were picked up by Google.

If you don’t use AMP, you could try and remove those URLs from Google
