I have created two custom post types, each with it's own slug. Each custom post type contains some articles with the same title.
So ideally I would have . .
customposttype1/mainarticle/
customposttype2/mainarticle/
Instead I get . . .
customposttype1/mainarticle/
customposttype2/mainarticle2/ <-- with the extra 2 on the end
The permalinks are set to "postname".
Any help would be appreciated.
This is normal WordPress behaviour. Any time it detects that a slug is a duplicate - regardless of post-type or parents or categories - it will append a number to differentiate the newer version. As far as I know, there is no way to override this.
