It's still there, but you'll never find it
Okay, the world didn't explode (where's the kaboom?)-- Good thing.
Both posts are still there, neither disappeared-- Also Good thing.
Both links now point to the newer post-- makes sense.
Bug or misfeature?

Feature or misfeature - or something I haven't got around to fixing yet.
I think some people would like the ability to keep adding new posts that take the same URL, but for many it will just be confusing. I'll be adding some code to sort this out - the second post that maps to the same URL will get a _2 appended, or something like that.
There'll also be a field so that you can manually alter the URL for an individual post.

"I think some people would like the ability to keep adding new posts that take the same URL..."
Okay, I can understand that. ("Today's Weather," comes to mind as a possibility... you'd always want the most recent version.) But for continuing updates, wouldn't a category be better? (Sudden thought: We can't assign a post to more than one category, can we?)

Yay!
Okay, let's try something mean:
I note the links to individual posts are of the form "http://[sitename]/[post title]. Let's see what happens if you give the same title to two posts...

Dude, not correct. [sitename] is nothing. And [post.title] (notice the . inbetween) gives you the actual title of the post, not the article link. You need [post.path] for the path to the post.

Was using "sitename" and "post title" as placeholders, not variable names.

Gotcha. Once we get the docs on tags we'll be able to get the full path to a particular post without having to type it in manually...

Successfully created a new "include" template! Note the "Useful Stuff" in the sidebar.
(Observation: Too much stuff "just works" around here. THIS is a BETA?)
