 * Hello,
    I noticed there is a problem with the permalink that WordPress keeps 
   inserting even though I have tried many times to correct it. I need to get rid
   of the -2 after the correct title of my page which is Mindscaping According to
   a guy who I asked to help me this is because WordPress does not recognize the
   word Mindscaping. I find that information to be troubling because there must 
   be many words that WordPress does not know yet WordPress needs to accept there
   are many words/titles it does not know so the system should be able to accept
   that the owners and creators of a website know what they are doing.
 * How can my problem be corrected?
 * Thank you.

 * The issue is NOT that word; the issue is there is another post that has the slug“
   mindscaping”, so when you add this page, it appends a 2. Do you have an in image
   with that name?
 * When I try to access your site, I get a looping error.

 * Hi Steve
    Thank you very much for the clarification. I do have my Danish counterpart
   that is called /da/mindscaping It is not a problem with the other pages that 
   have same title such as eft and /da/eft

 * This forum is in no way connected to your WP site, so please explain what you
   mean.

 * I figured out how to fix the problem that I could not get into my wordpress site.
   Looking at my pages I realize that it is Polylang and Polylang Slug that must
   be creating the problems. It did not initially do that when I created the website
   but since I last updated my plugins it now creates -2 for all pages which title
   ends the same discarding that IS a distinktion between the two languages

 * My question is – do I even need Polylang considering I have already translated
   the pages myself that need to be translated?…………

 * I have no experience with that, so can’t answer that question.
