Hi Здравко
Thanks for your comment. You're correct.
Single page has unique ID but we're storing ID's in mySQL DB(In WordPress) from different pages. In DB, we found some duplicate ID's and getting unexpected folder structure.
Thank you

codeconfigs, I cannot be more concrete without more exact point/example what are you doing and it's going wrong accordingly.

There is no way to exist duplicate IDs. Every file/folder ID identifies in unique way particular file/folder. Though, keep in mind that ID identify the file/folder unit as such, neither path nor name. The same file/folder may be moved on other place and will keep its ID on the new path (and eventually name). At the same time on the old path another file may get up with different ID, of course. If you don't clearly understand this, you may get in confusion! If you are familiar with local FS params, Dropbox file/folder ID is something very similar to inode (roughly, you can count them as same things; I hope this analogy can help you clarify the things). Is it possible to have duplicate inode in particular partition on your computer? 😉

That sounds like a logical mistake due to misunderstanding of IDs nature.
