  I’d like to create a page permalink at doublehockeysticks.com/2012, but every time I try to type the permalink as 2012, it changes to 2012-2. How do I get it to be 2012?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi there,

  That would be because “2012” is a reserved term, for your yearly archives.

  Examples:
  * All of 2012: http://doublehockeysticks.com/2012/
  * All of 2011: http://doublehockeysticks.com/2011/
  * March 2011: http://doublehockeysticks.com/2011/03

  http://doublehockeysticks.com/twenty-twelve/ would work, if you want. :)
