Hello,

In the "Pages" section of the backoffice, make sure you are in "Advanced Editing" mode, select your page, and click "Edit Page Content". Scroll down to the "Filename" field and enter "headphone.html", save, and click Publish.

Will he also need to find the old page and delete it? Seems we have changed some page names and now have orphan pages. Seems it is best to name them as you make them?

Correct. Changing the filename of a page/moreinfo page will cause ShopSite to generate the new page but the old page will not be deleted. It is probably better to use the Copy Page option to make a copy of the page and give it the new file name and then delete the original page. If you don't do this you will need to manually remove the file using ftp, ssh, telnet etc or create another page in ShopSite with the old file name and then delete that page.
