Dear Developers,

I created the Pages with the slug [Advertiser] and Page Name is also [Advertiser]

and URL is

http://mydomain.com/advertiser

and I created the Forum with the name of [Advertiser] but the Problem is in slug

it is taking [Advertister-2].

Why it is taking Advertiser -2

and the URL is

http://mydomain.com/forums/forum/advertisers-2

I want to create forum with the Slug of [advertiser] instead of -2

I need help to solve this Problem.

will you Guide me How can I do this.

Many Thanks.

Gulzar Ahmed

WordPress runs post slugs through a sanitization filter to make sure there are no collisions. As such, no two slugs can be the same, regardless of the type of content that it is.
