Wordpress Plugin - Slugs
I wanted to update a few slugs/titles for our site (brisbaneeventhire.com.au) but am having trouble understanding what the system is doing.
Usually the WP plugin will sync a new slug/page if the title is changed in IO so I was ready to redirect the old pages.
The end result after 3 title changes however is confusing (and annoying me). It shouldn't be this difficult to update a title. I altered the following inventory names in IO:
1. "Tiffany Chiavari Wedding Chair w/Cushion - Gold" to "Tiffany Chiavari Chair - Gold"
2. "Tiffany Chiavari Wedding Chair w/Cushion - Clear" to "Tiffany Chiavari Chair - Ghost"
3. "Tiffany Chiavari Wedding Chair w/Cushion - White" to "Tiffany Chiavari Chair - White"
On the website, all 3 titles updated immediately. Happy days.
In WP and the website slugs however is a different story...
"Gold" created a new page per the new title AND kept the old page separate
"Ghost" replaced the old page, did not create a new page but kept the old slug
"White" replaced the old page, did not create a new page but kept the old slug
I then did a full manual sync of the site and a THIRD "Gold" page was created with the same name as the original but there was no effect on white or ghost.
?
It's also extremely frustrating to have to redo all meta data and page titles when wanting to simply update a product title...is there an easier way to all of this and what has happened above?
The same question
Any updates on this?

Hi Phill...have you had a chance to look at this?
I have another example where when we added a vendor item, the category page decided to then link to the vendor item instead of the original item.
Why would it change out the products? It's a pain because we don't bother adding descriptions to vendor items, the pricing is different etc...

Hi Richard,
Just wanted to update you to let you know I am still working on a good solution to this for you. As of right now it is looking like a solution to this will have to be part of the updates we work on this summer, but I will update you if I come up with a good answer in the meantime.
