I duplicated an event. In the duplicate I tried to edit the permalink (by pressing the edit button below the event title above the description). when I click apply and update the page it reverts to the old permalink. I have made sure I am pressing ok after the edit. Once the page reloads after pressing the update (for the event) it refreshes with the original permalink. |

changing permalinks on other events that are not duplicates does work on my site. |

Hello, Please see my reply here on the add to cart option not working as expected: https://eventespresso.com/topic/ticket-selector-redirecting/#post-230204 Next, if there is an existing event with the new URL, then it cannot be re-used. Could you check to see if this is what is happening? If you definitely want to re-use the URL, then you’ll want to edit the original event to add some extra characters (e.g. a number to the end) and save changes. Then go to to the new event and adjust the URL and save changes. — |

WIth all plugins except event espresso ones disabled I still get the error. To reproduce: interestingly if I edit the permalink before publishing the duplicate event then it works. I have also confirmed that using this method I can get a second duplicate of the original to have the permalink that I want as long as I change it before hitting publish the first time. |

Hi, I tested those steps and I was able to edit the URL for an event after duplicating it, publishing it, editing it and then saving the changes: What web browser are you using? — |
|
Tried it on both Chrome and firefox with the same result |

What are you chanigng the permalink from and to? Which EE plugins did you have activated? I tested your steps above on multiple test sites and could not reproduce the same problem so need to try and narrow this down some, I can edit the duplicate permlinks at any time before/after publishing the events. Its also possible for this to be a theme conflict, have you tried switching to a default theme and re-testing? |
