Custom Permalink Not Used On Revised Post / Mark Original

    I’ve tried this multiple times now. But a revised post is not using the custom slug/permalink from the original post and instead is using its title to re-generate the URL.

    I used to have a permalink plugin on the site but that’s been removed.

    Additionally, I thought that when a post is revised that it is marked as the Original for easy identification. I’m not seeing that either.

    Weird behavior. Could use some help. Thanks.

    I’m not following. The revision that is created is a clone of the original, it doesn’t get its own URL because it’s in DRAFT mode. When you publish the revision, it copies its contents back onto the original, which would continue to use whatever slug is configured for it. You cannot edit/modify/revisionize the slug if that’s what you’re trying to do.

    I’m not sure about the “Original” tag not being shown. If you’re revised and published the same post multiple times, it could be that the original original is no longer around (trash maybe?). Without seeing your database, I can’t say for certain.
