I’m using custom post status to basically just adds an additional “featured” status. status section looks like this.

,'status' => array(
    'draft' => array(
           'label' => 'Draft'
    )
    ,'publish' => array(
           'label' => 'Published'
    )
    ,'featured' => array(
           'label' => 'Featured'
    )
)

Problem is kind of two sided but I think one is related to another. When I set a post to the featured status it changes the update button to be “Publish” which when clicked reverts the post back to being the publish status. Now part two, because of the above it seems like something strange is happening when you change a slug and then update the status, basically reverting the slug back to its previous form.

Since this is relatively hard to explain I made a quick video link to show exactly what happens.

Just a note dropbox crushes the poo out of this thing if you play it in browser so you may want to download to view so you can actually see whats going on.

Thanks for any help.
