Hi,

Does anyone know a plug in for Word Press that will turn the title of post and add it to the
URL and not just a number. Here is what it looks like now
How to Launch a New Product | transparentlaunch.com

I want it to look like http://transparentlaunch.com/how_to_launch_a_product

I also have a number of other blogs that I would like to customize this for.
I have been told there are some free plugins for word press that can do this
anyone know what they are?.

If there is not any does anyone have any ideas how to do this.... easily (no knowledge of coding)

Appreciate any assistance!
Kind Regards

Go to options, and change your permalink structure to custom and put:

/%category%/%postname%/

or just /%postname%/ if you don't want the category name in the address

just a related question: why do WP page url's look and end like folders .../my-post/ but they don't act like folders, you can't add something to complete it eg typing /my-post/index.php in your browser, it will give an error

Just wondered if my dbase server crashes fatally how to resurrect those urls in plain php or html...

Thanks

  To get to the admin menu in wordpress, just type domain.com/wp-admin and it will take you to the admin section. You will need to login with an admin account to make changes.
  
  Use either All-In-One SEO or Platinum SEO, and also Permalink Moved Plugins. Then use the post editor to modify the url to be whatever you want it to be.
  
  Thanks
