Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Singular

An example: A post titled "A Witty Quote" for example, has a post slug (which is used in a post's permalink) of 'a-witty-quote'. A second post titled "A wiTTy QUoTe" (or something similar) would have a post slug of 'a-witty-quote-2'. If you want the second post slug to be 'a-witty-quote' instead of 'a-witty-quote-2', use this plugin.
If you're asking, it probably isn't! To be useful, the following should all be true: You have a blog that uses a permalink structure incorporating the date, or some other unique path. You write posts that have the same title (or that would sanitise to the same title) regularly. You don't like the second and third posts having '-2' and '-3' appended.
No. Singular merely repeats Wordpress' own method of creating a post slug. That is, it takes the title of the post and sanitises it. All Singular does is skip the code that checks for a duplicate that could possibly add a numeral suffix.
If you have a unique permalink structure similar to that described above, no. However, the numeral is put there for a reason. If you store archives by category, for example, and two posts in the same category have a similar title, both posts will resolve to the same permalink. Which one will take priority is up to your .htaccess file. Ensure you understand the implications of fiddling with your permalink structure before you run with this. That said, it won't actually delete any posts, it just might make them hard to find...
