Add post title to your URL

When you click on a post link in your site it takes you to that particlular post.  By default, your URL will display the post id #. For example if you have a post named “The best recipe for brownies” by default the URL will read…

http://www.yoursite/?p=1

or something close to it.

You want it to read like this…

http://www.yoursite/The-best-recipe-for-brownies

If you want the URL to display the name of your post in it’s address go to your wp dashboard —> settings —>permalinks and make the following changes…

32

click the “custom structure” button and type in “%postname%”.  Hit the save button and check it out.

Leaving a comment with code in it...

If you would like to leave a comment and you have examples of code you want to show, you must "escape the code". This allows the entire code to show correctly by inserting certain variable around certain tags to make them show. If you don't "escape the code" your code will show up broken, mangled, and it won't be able to be seen correctly. "Escaping the code" is very simple...

  1. Copy your code you want to show
  2. Click here to go to the site to escape the code
  3. Follow the directions, it's so easy
  4. Once you have the escaped code copied, paste it in the comments area where you want
  5. Now you can enjoy life


Go ahead, leave a comment...

I was looking for this. Did it through Headspace 2, but I had some other issues with that plug-in.

This is a lot easier.

Thanks,

Otto
