[Technews theme] Changing posts’ titles doesn’t affect local preview URLs, so browser still shows old URLs like this: Publii/sites/my-site/preview/old-title.html
Is that the way is intended to work?
Will it affect my website once published too? (still can’t test that)
What I’m pointing out is not the suffix itself, I try to make it more clear:
The post slug doesn’t automatically change if I change the title of the post. On Adding, editing and deleting posts is mentioned
If left blank Publii will automatically generate this
but the “automatically” is meant to be only on post creation and not on later title modifications.
So that is well designed since it is not recommended that you change the post slug after a post is published. If you do change a post slug after publishing a post, all external existing links to that post will now be “broken” and no longer work since there is no URL redirection. My only suggestion is to make it clear in the above linked documentation, especially for beginners.
