Meaningful names in permalinks
3 replies · Started by Robert on May 18, 2021
IN classic WordPress permalinks by default were "pretty" -- both for pages and posts. For example,
page: https://www.mofsa.org/marianne-oberg/
post: https://www.mofsa.org/spiritual-art/presenting-mofsa-artists/
In working with the new editor on a site created originally with the old editor (Classic plugin) and old GeneratePress, I still see pretty permalinks even when creating a new post with the new editor, for example:
https://mofsa.org/community/2021/05/15/our-journeys-home/
But on a new website created with new editor and new GP, a similar post does not have a pretty permalink:
https://mofsa.org/bobtest/?p=10
My question: How can I get pretty permalinks with GP 2.0.2?. I would like to do that for both posts and pages. (My hosting provider is Bluehost.)
Hi Robert,
The theme itself does not handle permalinks at all - it is completely handled by WordPress:

Hope this helps.
Perfect. That was much easier than another article I read on wordpress.org. it is all fixed on my site now.
Also, on another site I put a pointer to the article you suggested -- much better than what I had before.
I really appreciate your help!
No problem :)
