New save permalink?

  • I’m not sure this is a 4.4 feature, but I’ve seen it only since updating:

    When you enter a title now, it automatically saves to permalink (it doesn’t wait for you to save / publish your post).

    What happens is: you end up changing your title 5 seconds later, but your permalink doesn’t change. Then you publish and your auto-shares (Facebook, etc) auto share the permalink you don’t want. You have to either change the permalink, then change all your auto posts, or you have to just accept the permalink you didn’t want.

    I’m also seeing it sometimes auto create a number permalink instead of a title, so when I publish, same problem, but with a number.

    Again, not sure if this is a 4.4 thing or one of my plugins has updated and started doing this, like Yoast (I only have a couple plugins).

  • I have seen the same. I always write the post first and put the title when I am finished and last week, most of the posts permalink were numbers. That was not there before 4.4.
