Media items hogging pretty permalinks

It’s not your permalink settings, it’s the fact that foo.jpg was uploaded first and “stole” the slug foo – you need to change it to something else, then set your page slug.

Go to Media > foo.jpg > Edit (if you are in grid view, you need to go to “Edit more details”)

enter image description here

From this page you can edit the permalink/slug (just like pages/posts, right beneath the title field) and set it something that isn’t foo.

Now go re-save your page with slug foo.
