Slug name with spaces

Archived Lasse Pedersen ● ago

I have accidently created a few slug names with spaces instead on _.

Now I'm not able to delete them. The system says 'undefined' when i try to delete and they cannot be updated either.

Is there a trick to delete then?

Lasse,

Could you please clarify how did you create slugs with spaces? As system doesn't do it. Did you create them manually in database?

If so, you need to edit record of object where slug is stored.

No, I just added a space in the slug field, it accepted.

I forgot to write that it is while creating statuses in the administration part.

Now it makes sense. Just thought it was while creating topic.

Now you need to enter database with PHPMyAdmin or another Db Management tool and in "statuses" table remove record with status that has space in slug.

We'll put extra check on adding statuses.

Now since 3.0.2 release, slug is not editable while adding/editing status
