Hi Jeff,

Thanks for the reply. The problem I have is that I can’t get onto the category page in order to change the slug back, as it throws the error. As the only place to edit it is on the page, this makes it a little tricky.

I guess I’d need to run an update query on the DB to do this but I’m not familiar with running sql queries from the command line, so if you could tell me how, that’d be awesome.

I have tried creating a new DB user and logging into the DB but got a response saying the DB wouldn’t allow the connection. Didn’t want to mess around too much without knowing how.

Thanks for your help.
