 * When it displays the permalink as “/links-2” it means you have two pages with
   the title “Links.” Just cutting the -2 off the end will break the URL.

 * Hi,
 * Set your desired permalink and add this code in htaccess:
 *     ```
       # BEGIN WordPress
   
       <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
       ErrorDocument 404 /index.php?error=404
       RewriteEngine On
       RewriteBase /
       RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
       RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
       RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
       </IfModule>
   
       # END WordPress
       ```
   
 * Thanks,
 * Shane G.
