Hello,

So here is an interesting potential bug I encountered this morning while trying to change the title’s and slugs for some place categories. The slugs of 2-3 of my categories gained the -1 postfix, meaning that the slug must already be used by the site. But…those slugs are not already being used. Very weird.

Hi,

it could be a post title, a location, or any other item that takes a slug, not just a taxonomy value.

Hi Alex thanks for the reply. I’m 100% positive that I do not have any of the above. I’m going to try to delete the categories that are bugged and and recreate them to see if that works.

That didn’t work. Is there a way to scan your site to see what could be using a slug? It’s funny because I just tried to create a category using a slug that I know for a fact that I’m already using, and guess what it let me use it….somethings bugged here.
