Guid issue

    Hi,
    When I duplicate a post, it seems that the GUID (use for rss feed) is not properly formatted.
    Normaly, it looks like http://www.domain.com/?p=6455 but when I duplicate a post, the GUID use the same name as the basis and appends the “-copy” string to it. I can therefore have identical GUIDs if 2 posts were created from the same origin. Unfortunately With duplicated GUIDs, my rss feed doesn’t validate… Is this an known issue?

    Hi @abrebion,
    I’m doing some tests and it looks like you’re right.
    Can you confirm that it’s happening only if you click on Clone with the Status checkbox enabled under Settings→Duplicate Post, tab What To Copy, and it does not occur if you copy to a new draft?

    Hi,
    Yes I confirm.
    Status is checked under settings > what to copy
    Issue occurs only when I clone, not when I copy to a new draft.

    Hi,
    thank you for your help!
    I think I found what causes the bug, it shouldn’t be too hard to solve but I want to test the solution very carefully.

    I’ll keep you informed, in the meantime I’d suggest you to copy to a new draft (or clone after disabling the Status checkbox) and thenpublish the post, so the guid is generated as unique…

    Thank you very much for reporting the bug! I hope I can give you news about it soon.
