## Beskriuwing

Normally it is not possible to have a page slug (the page’s name in the URL) that
is a number. For example this will not work: `yoursite.com/about/2/`. That URL conflicts
with paged content feature where you can posts and pages with multiple pages of 
content by adding `<!--nextpage-->` within your content.

This plugin allows you to have pages with numbers as slugs by giving up the ability
to have paged content pages which isn’t a big deal as most people don’t use paged
content pages anyway.

Code contributions and bug reports are welcome via [this plugin’s GitHub repository](https://github.com/Viper007Bond/allow-numeric-stubs).

## Ynstallaasje

 1. Go to your admin area and select Plugins  Add New from the menu.
 2. Search for “Allow Numeric Slugs”.
 3. Click install.
 4. Click activate.

You can’t have a post with a numeric slug like “2020.” Wordpress will automatically
add a “-2” to the end of it. This plugin solves the problem instantly.This developer
passed on in 2019. I’m praying for his soul and the comfort of his family.

## Feroaringslog

#### Version 3.0.0

 * Ditch all of the old fragile hackery of this plugin in favor of just hooking 
   into the WordPress function that ensures that slugs are unique. It’s what was
   adding the `-2` suffix in the first place.

#### Version 2.2.0

 * Update for WordPress 4.4’s rewrite rules.
 * PHP 7 compatibility by renaming class constructor. Also drops unneeded references.

#### Version 2.1.0

 * Update for WordPress 3.3’s rewrite rules.

#### Version 2.0.1

 * Re-add the `save_post` filter after fixing the slug incase multiple posts are
   updated in one pageload.

#### Version 2.0.0

 * Recoded for WordPress 3.0+. WordPress now won’t let you manually enter a numeric
   slug — it will prefix “-2” onto the end of it so that the page is viewable. This
   new plugin version works around it.

#### Version 1.0.0

 * Initial release.
