    Hi,

    Using Remobile Pro theme and I've been updating / amending my portfolio page (6 times!), now the URL permalink for the portfolio page reads http://localhost/Communicatent.com.au/wordpress/portfolio-6/

    Any ideas how I remove the -6? I've re-saved / refreshed my permalinks in settings, still showing -6

    Using localhost so can't provide URL link.

    Thanks!

    You may still have old posts/portfolio items with the same name in your WordPress trash or as saved entries in the database.

    A plugin like WP-Optimize - https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-optimize/ - will remove all those saved database entries. Then you should be able to edit the slug of the posts and remove the -6.

    WP-Optimize is easy to use, but read what is checked to delete; you may have Drafts that you want to not delete. I use it manually and Deactivate between uses.

    Also if you use a WordPress cache plugin be sure to flush the cache before you try to rename the post slugs.
