== Reproduction Report
=== Description
This report validates whether the issue can be reproduced.
=== Environment
- WordPress: 6.9
- PHP: 8.3.29
- Server: PHP.wasm
- Database: WP_SQLite_Driver (Server: 8.0.38 / Client: 3.51.0)
- Browser: Firefox 147.0
- OS: Windows 10/11
- Theme: Twenty Twenty-Five 1.4
- MU Plugins: None activated
- Plugins:
* Test Reports 1.2.1
=== Actual Results
1. ✅ Unable to reproduce — The reported issue does not occur in this
environment.
=== Additional Notes
When creating posts with empty titles:
- Permalink structure `/%postname%/`: WordPress automatically appends a -2
suffix to the slug (ie: https://example.com/6-2/). Permalink functions
correctly.
- Permalink structure `/blog/%postname%/`: WordPress does not append a -2
suffix to the slug (ie: https://example.com/blog/6/). Permalink still
functions correctly.
Both permalink configurations handle empty post titles without errors.
