    Hi All,
    When I make a new page for some reason it is making a duplicate page in news.
    But when I try to find the duplicate page in the news section it doesn’t exist anywhere not even in my database.
    So if I make a new page it always has -2
    How do I stop this and how do I find these mysterious pages in news?

    Hey Darren,
    Do you mean that in your news section you have duplicate content, or that when making a new page with a certain title it shows as a -2 ?
    If it is the -2 issue, then please check your “trash” for the same title and check your “media” for a file with the same title, this will cause your page with the same title to have a -2
    If this doesn’t help, Can you please include a admin login in the private content area so we can take a closer look.

    Best regards,
    Mike

    Hi Mike,
    Thanks for the reply.
    I have looked through the trash and also the media
    In the private area I’ve put the details you requested also a link to a page that I can’t find.
    It says it news but there is nothing in the news, media or even looking through the database I cannot find the pages.

    Hi,
    WordPress by default creates a single page for each attachment that you have on your site, therefore when you create a new page it gets the -2 added.
    The attachment page is not a true page that you will find listed with your pages, it is dynamically created, but it reserves the permalink.
    One way around this is to go to the image in your media folder and click it so you get the Attachment Details popup, then look for “Edit more details” and click:
    2018-03-11_102156
    Click screen options at the top of the page and check the box “slug”:
    2018-03-11_102405
    Then at the bottom of the page you can change the slug, which is the permalink, to something different so you can create the new page you want.

    Here is another option: How to Hide Media Attachment Pages in WordPress

    Best regards,
