I often have posts with the same name and it can be troublesome unless you leave in date or post_id information.

So maybe there's a way around it but for someone just doing what seemed like a normal way to update a post the url changed - unless I'm totally remembering this incorrectly. :) I don't think there would be that many posts online about this issue if it didn't occur at least pretty commonly though.

Your URL will be broken if you actually changed your post' date. Say, from May 20 to May 27. Of course, your new date will be reflected instead of the old one. But if you just update your post without changing the date, nothing bad will happen to your original URL. Yes, I understand it now. Your URL will be broken if you actually changed your post’ date.

"if you update your post at a later date the url changes to reflect the new date" I often update my posts at a later date but this doesn't happen to me. Is this really true?

“if you update your post at a later date the url changes to reflect the new date”

I often update my posts at a later date but this doesn’t happen to me.
