 * I’m experiencing an issue where jobs with identical names are not being assigned
   the correct numerical suffix and as a result, are generating 404 errors.
 * For example, here’s a job entry with the suffix added but produces the 404 error:
   [http://www.conductorsguild.org/job/music-director-3/](http://www.conductorsguild.org/job/music-director-3/)(
   admin panel – [http://screencast.com/t/2CN6NDNCKSKO](http://screencast.com/t/2CN6NDNCKSKO)).
 * Thoughts?

 * well that’s odd, but here’s a different example. I created a new job titled “
   music Director” and the system assigned a -2 suffix: [http://screencast.com/t/nY5tMTA3SiJ0](http://screencast.com/t/nY5tMTA3SiJ0)
   and the frontend produces the 404 error: [http://screencast.com/t/uYwQuFUcgJ](http://screencast.com/t/uYwQuFUcgJ)
 * FYI, I had to set that job to draft so it doesn’t show on their live site. but
   I don’t know why it would assign a numeral lower than one that already exists(-
   3).

 * It’s appended by WordPress.
 * Are you using cloudflare or any caching?

 * We do use the CDN that is part of WPengine (MaxCDN).

 * When you next get the 404, flush WPE cache.

 * Interestingly enough, that didn’t work but what did seem to clear things up was
   disconnecting the site from CDN entirely for 24 hours, then reactivating.
 * Is this something you’ve encountered otherwise with installs at WPE or something
   I should bring up to them directly related to WP Job Manager?
