# Problem using Elementor

 * Hello!
 * I have been using Elementor with this plugin, but I have encountered an error
   upon using this plugin. I am able to generate a page duplicate just fine, but
   the slug field is not actually stored in the database, which Elementor uses to
   allow me to edit the page. This causes a 400 error.
 * I have found a solution, in duplicatepage.php to add a line:
 *     ```wp-block-code
        'post_name' => $post-> 'some unique string'
       ```
   
 * to the $args array. This lets me get around having to manually assign a post,
   but I would like to receive updates in the future. Is there another known solution
   to fix this? Or would it be possible to have this added in a future update for
   other Elementor users.
 * Thanks for any help!
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fproblem-using-elementor-2%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)

 * Hi [@member5614](https://wordpress.org/support/users/member5614/) ,
 * Thank you for the detailed bug report and solution suggestion!
 * This issue was reported several months ago and our development team has been 
   working on it. It’s likely already **fixed in the latest version** of Duplicate
   Page.
 * **Please try this:**
    1. Go to **Plugins → Duplicate Page**
    2. Check if there’s an **update available**
    3. Click **Update** to the latest version
    4. **Deactivate and reactivate** the plugin
    5. Try duplicating an Elementor page again and see if the slug issue is resolved
 * If the issue is **still present** after updating to the latest version, please
   let me know and we can investigate further.
 * Thank you for your patience!
 * Best regards,
   WP File Manager Support
