After reading this thread I’m still struggling with this issue.
I have a contact page. I want it to be in /contact and NOT /contact-2. WordPress will let me name it anything but /contact
Brand new installation of WordPress with a new, clean database. The trash is empty, there are no drafts. I cannot change the name to simply read contact as a permalink.
Having a contact page with a URL of /contact-2/ is not acceptable in my situation.
Any ideas?
