Manually changing the database isn't really a viable option for me, I'm afraid. I have thousands of posts and no way of immediately knowing which were affected by this issue. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/slugs-and-duplicates#post-8492 Tue, 26 Jun 2007 03:51:36 +0000 sambauers 8492@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Now fixed in Subversion repository. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/slugs-and-duplicates#post-8421 Sun, 24 Jun 2007 01:21:06 +0000 sambauers 8421@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Ticket here:</p> <p><a href="http://trac.bbpress.org/ticket/671" rel="nofollow">http://trac.bbpress.org/ticket/671</a> </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/slugs-and-duplicates#post-8420 Sun, 24 Jun 2007 01:16:08 +0000 sambauers 8420@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>I think there is a problem with the upgrade script that causes this. There is no problem creating new topics.</p> <p>You can manually edit the slugs in the database if you have this problem on a production site.</p> <p>I'll raise a ticket about this though. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/slugs-and-duplicates#post-8356 Thu, 21 Jun 2007 13:40:39 +0000 marky 8356@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>During the upgrade. Admittedly, I haven't tried it when making new topics with duplicate names yet. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/slugs-and-duplicates#post-8337 Thu, 21 Jun 2007 01:27:10 +0000 sambauers 8337@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Did this happen during the upgrade? Or when making the topics? </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/slugs-and-duplicates#post-8312 Wed, 20 Jun 2007 13:45:11 +0000 marky 8312@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>I've noticed when multiple topics share the same topic name, the slug gets modified a little strangely. For example, if I have four topics named "Test" the slugs would be:</p> <ul> <li><a href="http://www.example.com/topic/test" rel="nofollow">www.example.com/topic/test</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.example.com/topic/test-1-2" rel="nofollow">www.example.com/topic/test-1-2</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.example.com/topic/test-1-2-3" rel="nofollow">www.example.com/topic/test-1-2-3</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.example.com/topic/test-1-2-3-4" rel="nofollow">www.example.com/topic/test-1-2-3-4</a></li> <li>And so forth...</li> </ul> <p>I'd imagine by the 50th topic, the URL would become quite unwieldy. Surely only the last slug number is necessary. Is there any way to fix this? Since these are supposed to be permalinks, it's somewhat urgent. </p>
