RESOLVED.

This turned out to be not an issue with the WordPress site. It was due to the retention of a legacy site which is now gone and the problem no longer exists.

Hi Threadie,

To answer your question, I received a link from the person who is is concerned about his personal information. The link remained active, even after deleting the same file in WordPress.

I spent a lot of time worrying about this yesterday. When my brain cleared I realised where I think the duplicate file is.

I am now fairly certain that the file is not located in WordPress but is located in a legacy website on the same ISP. The website which predated the migration to WordPress. A decision had been made to retain the legacy site for a period. It should have been deleted later but wasn’t. ??

I very much appreciate your input, which helped me to realise that I had to look outside WordPress.

[Once I have confirmed the above, I will mark this thread as resolved.]

Thank you @threadi.

I just deleted my backup plugin (All-in-One WP Migration) but it made no difference. The file is still in there somewhere (assuming the change would propagate immediately). ??

Thank you for your detailed response and advice, which will help me probe this issue further.

I’m not sure how to show code here, sorry.
