After you restore a property page from the WordPress trash, its URL ends in ‘__trashed’ instead of the clean address.
Why this happens. This is standard WordPress behavior. When a page sits in the trash and something else claims its address, WordPress renames the trashed page by appending ‘__trashed’ to its permalink. Restoring the page does not remove that marker automatically.
How to fix it. Edit the restored page’s permalink slug back to the clean version:
- In the WordPress page list, open Quick Edit for the restored page.
- Remove ‘__trashed’ from the Slug field and save.
- Clear your site cache so menus and listing pages pick up the clean links.
WordPress then automatically redirects the old ‘__trashed’ address to the clean one, so visitors and search engines are not affected.
If you are running ads. Update your ads to point at the clean address so they load directly without going through a redirect. The redirect can otherwise drop ad-tracking parameters.
