    Hello everyone, I hope this is the right place to submit this.

    I`ve been using wordpress for a while now.. Everything has been working smoothly. But today I got into a little problem. When I try to delete a post or page it comes right back.. The post/page is “deleted” ( you know, fading out with the red color ) but when I press F5 or click on the post or pages tab the “deleted” post/page comes right back on the list…?!

    I dont get any error message or anything.. the posts just dont want to get deleted it seems.. Any ideas?

    Thanks.

  • If you go to EDIT, then scroll to the bottom and press DELETE PAGE it seems to work for me… If that doesnt then set it to PRIVATE, then go to EDIT –> DELETE PAGE and it should work…Its a good enough work around until it gets figured out…

    Is there an actual fix for this problem? So you can delete without having to go into the post or page?

    I encountered the same problem and finally found the solution. When we created our site originally, it was for an alternate domain in our list. Example www*altdomain*com. (Yes, periods changed to asterisks so these won’t be real URLs) However, when we finally moved all of our primary web pages, and reset the DNS records accordingly, if we went to www*altdomain*com/blog it would rewrite the URL to www*primarydomain*com/blog.

    Except that in our Options | General page in WordPress, we still had www*altdomain*com as the URL.

    Once reset to www*primarydomain*com in Options | General, I could delete posts (and have them STAY GONE), add categories, etc. And JavaScript is re-enabled.

    Hope that helps someone.
