    Hi all,
    I just created a web site recently, http://www.recipetrazor.com . As I was reading wordpress documents I found this information about the title:
    Title

    The title of your post. You can use any words or phrases. Avoid using the same title twice as that will cause problems….
    I found this info on this link:
    http://codex.wordpress.org/Writing_Posts

    The site is intent is to have people post their recipes online, so many different recipes could be found for the same food title, it’s entirely possible to have three different contributors submit a recipe for Carrot Cake for example.

    My question is: am I going to have a problem if all three contributors use “Carrot Cake” for the title?

    Thank you,

    There will be no problem in publishing such posts with duplicate titles since each post has an unique id, but WordPress will add a serial number to the title in the permalink (in case of same titles), if you had enabled pretty permalinks.

    But will it not cause confusion to your readers? Think about it.

    WordPress will handle it for you.

    Worst case scenario you’ll end up with post titles that look like this..

    Carrot Cake
    Carrot Cake-2
    Carrot Cake-3

    ..and so on.. or something to that degree if i remember correctly..
