Steps to reproduce the issue

  1. Create a new module (Any Type)
  2. Set Position to: example_topic_1 and save the module
  3. Now edit the module an try to change the position to: example_top

Expected result

You should be able to add any custom module position.

Actual result

There is a conflict with the position name, Joomla won't let you add a new custom position if there is another with the same word at the beginning.

@jeckodevelopment Please try with the exact example mentioned above
First: example_topic_1
Then: example_top
In my example there is a match after the underscore: _top

Ok.
Problem solved by deleting 523 trashed modules + clearing the browser cache + clearing the joomla cache + clearing the browser cookies
Thanks for your support.
