 * I’ve noticed there’s an “old slug” in the database on several posts even though
   I never changed the title of the post. Anyone know why it’s doing this or if 
   it’ll cause search engine issues?
 * Thanks.

 * It’s probably created during auto save or revision. I doubt it’s been used and
   are just garbage inside your database so it won’t cause any issues.
