 * Hi
 * We have many worpdress sites since 10 years
    last version WP, few plugins, we
   all disabled them to see if the problem was coming from another plugin
 * The problem :
 * For some pages we have customized the permalinks
 * lets say for instance site.com/custom
 * then if we create an article with custom at the beginning of the url like :
 * site.com/custom-blabla
 * then this url will show the homepage ! instead of showing the article (or page)
   just created
 * the worst thing is that it creates a duplicate page of the homepage under a different
   url which is a big problem for SEO
 * I just checked : actually adding anything after site.com/custom-anything leads
   to the same problem, so anyone could create multiple duplicate urls of the homepage…
 * Tx for your help,

 * Hi [@deepblue5](https://wordpress.org/support/users/deepblue5/)
 * As you said that you are many wp websites from 10 years so, how long you are 
   using this plugin?
 * Did you just start using this plugin? If you are using this plugin from last 
   couple of years/months so, how long you are facing this issue?
 * Which plugin version you are using?
 * Does it doing this issue for pages or post or for both?
 * As per your desciption it perceived that your homepage url is site.com/custom
 * Does it correct? If yes, so have you define this page as homepage from wp settings?
 * Please provide me the details so, i can help you out i can.
 * Thanks,
    Sami
