Living Hell with Permalink URL

  • Hi,

    I know my problem is common, but after a day of reading, All the tips I found didn’t help me.

    Please Help.

    I have a page called STYLE where, in the editing page, the permalink displayed is :
    https://mydomain.com/wp/style/

    When I click on “View page” it goes to:
    https://parisjibtrip.com/wp/style-2/
    with an error saying “redirection loop mistake”.

    No other page is called STYLE (name or slug).

    Here is what I tried already:

    1- erase the page STYLE then permanently erase it and start again… no success
    2 – Rename the permalink, click on OK or UPDATE, to name it as /style-2.. no success
    3 – Pray… no (yet) success

    Please, my mental health is at stakes.

    Francis

  • Try emptying the trash bin and see if that changes anything.

    If emptying trash didn’t help, try making page and make something like the-style. Something unique.

    Thanks guys. The trash doesn’t help.

    To take another helps of course but for referencing and SEO, it’s not really ideal. Is my quick fix but is is not really satisfying.

    I can ‘t access the SQL database since the hoster don’t let access (I know it’s weird: It’s OVH) so I cant change it on the Post Table…

    Thanks again guy… I guess there is no fix for this.

    Thanks guys. The trash doesn’t help.

    Just to make sure we are talking about the same trash bin – the trash bin in the WordPress dashboard, not the one on your local computer – if you go to your Dashboard and select: Pages > All Pages, if there is actually anything still in the WordPress trash bin, you will see it listed something like this:

    All (20) | Published (20) | Trash (3)

    The same thing applies to Posts. If the trash indicator is visible, then you still have deleted pages in the trash, and until you remove them, it will cause problems with page or post slugs if you create a new page with the same title.

    I know you have probably already looked, but it’s worth double checking just to make sure the WordPress trash is really empty. Especially since you are now getting a 404 for old slugs named style-2 and style-3.

    Hi Clayton,

    Thanks for the double checking… I did this many times.

    Even if I trash and then go to the trash and ask to delete it permanently (In dashborad/pages), when I create a page called STYLE, the permalink takes the name mydomain.com/Style (it appears when you edit the page in the dashboard), but the URL is mydomain.com/style-2…

    It looks like there is a redirection from one to another which lead to a loop…

    Thanks again Clayton,

    I hope someone will come up with some magic ??

    Cheers,

    F
