Bug when changing page name

Hi Joe,

It looks ot me like there's a bug in the page settings page. When you go into this page to edit settings for an existing page, then click on the Page Name textbox, then click away from here then the page url is updated from eg. ~/mypage.aspx to ~/1mypage.aspx (the 1 is inserted). Then you are unable to save the page as the error 'the page already exists' is shown.

Now I know how to reproduce it I can simply avoid it when making changes, although it's caused problems in the past when I've tried to do updates, the page url changes, and I'm then unable to save so I've changed the url for the page leading to potential SEO issues.

Thanks,
Matt

Re: Bug when changing page name

One safe way to do it is to remove all content from the page, delete the page and then re-create it and put the content back. By deleting it it will delete the previous friendly url and then you can create it again using the previosu url without conflict.

Hope it helps,

Joe
