Creating a password protected page deletes my other password protected page

  • I currently have one password protected page.
    Then, I create another one, and the previously created password protected page gets deleted.

    UPDATE: Actually, it is happening with *any* page, not just password protected pages… The only way I am actually able to create a new page is by logging out of my WordPress installation entirely, clearing cache, cookies, etc. Then I can re-log in, and it allows me to create ONE new page, but then any new page from there overwrites it.

    What is going on? Please help.
    Thanks.

    have you checked directly in the post table of the database to see the activity for the new post creation and revisions?

    Yeah, it appears to use the most recent Page ID and keeps editing / overwriting that one for some reason. Revisions seem to save as new IDs in the _posts table, though.

    Maybe it has something to do with caching or a web server configuration issue? I’ve never run into this problem before today, so I’m a bit unsure where to begin. I’m on a new wifi network, but haven’t had any other issues.

    To rule out any plugin or theme specific conflict, try:
    – deactivating ALL (yes all) plugins temporarily to see if this resolves the problem (plugin functions can interfere). If this works, re-activate them individually (one-by-one) to find the problematic plugin(s).
    – switching to the unedited default Theme (Twenty Seventeen.) for a moment using the WP dashboard (theme functions can interfere like plugins).
