 original forum topic is here:
 https://wordpress.org/support/topic/shows-post-url-form-instead-for-page/

 In short: created "page" inside WP Admin > Pages menu, and in it's source
 code the shortlink displayed is wrong (using form for posts, instead of
 pages):

 wrong:

 {{{
 <link rel='shortlink' href='https://mywebsite.com/?p=995' />
 }}}

 correct:
 {{{
 <link rel='shortlink' href='https://mywebsite.com/?page_id=995' />
 }}}

 proposed fix:
 https://wordpress.org/support/reply/8941661/

 original code:

 {{{
 if ( 'page' === $post->post_type && $post->ID == get_option(
 'page_on_front' ) && 'page' == get_option( 'show_on_front' ) ) {
 $shortlink = home_url( '/' );
 }}}


 should be:


 {{{
 if ( 'page' === $post->post_type ) {
 $shortlink = home_url( '?page_id=' . $post_id );
 }}}

 No longer get 404 from the shortlink url @ page's source code.

 Thanks!
