Posts with Titles are being published with "untitled" URL

[Colwynn_Design]

Issue Summary

I have 20+ draft blog posts that I created before the update to ghost 5.0. When I publish them, the titles are not being used in the URL for the blog post.

This was not happening with the draft posts I published before the update.

I do not have these set to auto-publish. I am manually publishing them so that I can proof read before they go live. I am checking they have titles, and even deleting and rewriting the title doesn’t make a difference.

When I publish, the URL is (e.g): https://www.colwynn.com/untitled-3/, instead of Rock Roses

Steps to Reproduce

1. Select “Drafts” from dashboard
2. Select blog post I wish to publish.
3. Make edits after proof reading.
4. Click “Publish”
5. Click “Continue”
6. Post is published with “untitled” URL.

It’s likely you / Ghost saved a draft post before adding the title, so Ghost created the untitled-n slug. So, go back to the published post to edit the post URL, and click update. You’ll need to click on the top-right ‘button’ to open Post Settings.

It’s a good idea to add the post title first to avoid this.
