    Hi,

    I am getting the following error "Resource ’2’ is already using the alias ’about’. Please enter a unique alias". I initially did an Import HTML and then repeated the Import (to see what would happen) and ended up with duplicate pages. So I Deleted the duplicates. However, when I edit the extant pages they appear to be in conflict with pages that have been deleted. Bug?

    The deleted Resources are marked with a line-through. Presumably for Undelete. I’d really like to get rid of them completely.

    Evo 1.0.0. FF. Not sure if this is the best board for this.

        Thanks Dimmy, hadn’t spotted the Trashcan.

        However, I think that if something is deleted then it seems a little bit odd that it can conflict with live resources.

        Probably a ’feature’ rather than a bug.
        • Well, you still have the option of undeleting the conflicting document, in which case you’d have a problem with the duplicate aliases. So yes, I’d say it’s a feature to prevent duplicate aliases in all the documents in the database, however they are flagged.
