I created a Story called "A Deadly Fuck" and saved it to draft, then later changed the name to "The Black Rabbit", but this is what the link looks like...

Yeah, for continuity of SEO and performance reasons (an endless redirect list) I guess the URL doesn't keep in step with title changes. But since it's in draft, I'd expect the slug to keep track until such time as it is approved for publication.
Not sure there's a clean fix right now. Since it's changed radically like that, maybe raise a help desk ticket and ask if the slug can be changed to match the title?

Thank you, WW! I'm OK with leaving it, just wanted to point out it was happening
We have the same issue in the forums if a thread is renamed. So the development team are aware there is an issue with slugs and are going to buy some pellets.
Just a note to say as WW says, this isn't a bug it is the intended behaviour. If names change dramatically we would have to look at them on a case by case basis to work out if we want the hassle of handling redirects.
Thanks for your response, Dan I had just thought since in draft, it wouldn't save the title until I hit 'Submit.'
