 * This page ([http://riverstonewellnesscollaborative.com/phillip-bass-2/](http://riverstonewellnesscollaborative.com/phillip-bass-2/))
   is a clone from another one. Even when I edit the permalink, no matter the name
   I put in there, it would always add “-2” at the end off it.
 * How can I get rid of that addition?
 * Thank you

 * Hi [@nomorext](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nomorext/),
    once the post
   is copied usually my plugin has no other effect on WordPress standard behaviour,
   which is that you can’t have two identical permalinks, obviously. I see that 
   [http://riverstonewellnesscollaborative.com/phillip-bass/](http://riverstonewellnesscollaborative.com/phillip-bass/)
   exists, so WordPress adds a `-2` to make sure the new permalink is different.
 * What’s strange is that [http://riverstonewellnesscollaborative.com/phillip-bass/](http://riverstonewellnesscollaborative.com/phillip-bass/)
   is actually an attachment page, but usually it should be something like `http://
   wp.example.net/path_to_post/post_name/attachment_name.` I suppose there is something
   that’s changing attachments permalinks?
    A quicker solution to the problem without
   touching the permalink structure would be to go in the Media Library and edit
   the permalink of the image.
 * Let me know if this helps!
