Friendly URLs "double up" in term-driven navigation on Modern pages

Hi everyone,

 

I'm setting up Term-Driven pages for the first time in my environment, and I noticed that when I create a friendly URL, the friendly term I enter is referenced twice in the generated URL when viewing the navigation on a page using the Modern experience. Screenshots say it all, sorry for potato quality:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We have a sandbox environment too in a completely separate tenant, and it has the same issue. Any workarounds?

    I was having this problem, and now it appears to be fixed. I haven't seen anything from Microsoft to suggest it was fixed, so I'm wondering if anyone else can confirm they are still having the problem. If you haven't checked your environment in a few weeks, it might be worth checking again now.

      Yes, appears fixed for me as well, ty.  fyi, while working with a Microsoft support engineer for an unrelated issue about 3 weeks ago, I mentioned this 'duplicate managed-navigation term' issue.  Support person was aware of issue and rough-estimated a fix in December, earlier in the month.

    Can any Microsoft folks weigh in on when we'll see a fix? This has been busted for a while now, and it's a pretty critical part of our site design -- navigation!

    We have this same issue, O365 SharePoint with term-driven navigation.   Happens for Modern list pages and Site Pages.  ty.

  • I have just found the same 'double up' happening on our site for modern site pages. Any workarounds? thanks C
