page url shows a -2 and cannot be changed

  • Hi,
    I am in the process of creating a site in which a lot of demo content was brought in.

    I have built the pages I need and have removed the demo content.

    I am finding on a few of my pages, say ‘services’, references ‘services-2’ as it’s page url.

    I cannot get it to change even though there is no other services page.

    Any idea on this?

  • Have you emptied the trash?? Or do you have pages and categories with the same name (WP doesn’t like that)?

    Usually happens when there is a post or page with the same name in the Trash. Delete all your trash items permanently, then try to rename your slug.
