3683,It is possible to create multiple categories with the same name and same slug,johnbillion,rob1n,"This is a trivial one, I know.

It is possible to create multiple categories with the same name and/or same slug, and doing so breaks all concerned categories.

To recreate:

1. Go to Manage -> Categories in the admin panel.

2. Create a new category.

3. Create another category with the same name and/or same slug.

4. Place some posts into these categories (so they show up on the blog) and then attempt to browse one of the categories via the blog. A 404 Not Found error is returned on all categories concerned.

=================

Desired Behaviour:

Either the user is alerted that they are attempting to create a duplicate category, or the duplicate category is created with a numerical suffix on the slug (eg. articles-2) much the same as is done with multiple blog posts that have the same titles.

IMO the first option would be preferable.",defect (bug),closed,normal,2.3,Administration,2.1,normal,fixed,dev-feedback 2nd-opinion,
