Fix Service Items

  • Hello,
    I am learning wordpress development and I encountered a problem.
    I created service items and gave them descriptions and then created pages for each item with the parent being services; thus both the page and the item have the same slug.
    It worked for some time. When I clicked on the item it’d take me to the page I created.
    But now when I click on the item, instead of taking me to the page I created for the item, it takes me to a page with the item name and description displayed.

    Any ideas how I can fix this?

  • Hi,

    what is your permalink setting set to? Have you tried changing it?

    The link to the item is /services/transmission and the page is /services/transmission. Changing the transmission item link to /services/transmission-2/ but when I click on the item to go to the page, it displays the /services/transmission-2/.

    Please go to settings > Permalinks and hit save. Check if the issue persists after that.

    Sorry for the late reply. But I do not follow.

    Please go to your backend, there you should see a settings menu item on the right bottom. When hovering on it, a submenu appears. This submenu has “Permalinks”. Go to that page and hit “Update permalinks”.

    Then check if the issue persists.

    Hey. Thank you for the timely response.
    I clicked on the “Save changes” button but nothing was different. I believe the button is for changes on that page.

    Saving permalinks actually sometimes fixes issues like this. Can you please share a link to your site, where the issue becomes visible?
