#32048 new defect (bug)

Uploaded file reserves a name, page can't be named it.

Description

1) Upload a file-name.png file to media library.
2) Publish a page named "file-name".
3) Note that (if site is set to post-name permalink) the page is now file-name-2
4) Try to rename the attachment and then give the page the natural name, and it still doesn't work.

This might have a similar root cause as bug #13459.

  • Component changed from General to Permalinks

Note that (if site is set to post-name permalink) the page is now file-name-2

It's done to avoid a conflict like #15665 or #24612. I don't see an easy solution here, any suggestions?

Try to rename the attachment and then give the page the natural name, and it still doesn't work.

Deleting the attachment and re-uploading it under a different name should work.

Replying to SergeyBiryukov:

Deleting the attachment and re-uploading it under a different name should work.

So there is no way to prefer that page to have the first name slug, or disable this rarely used example.com/imagename access to media files?

I wonder if this is a wontfix. This is the permalink system working as intended. I think having an uploads permalink stolen implies that it is somehow of lesser value than a post.

Still happening on 4.7.4
