Permalinks Structure

Hi Josue,

It is the plugins for sure, when I disabled the permalinks plugin the problem with SEO Yoast stopped. I will not be reactivating it. Is there another plugin I can use or another way to get the permalink structure I want? Currently my blog URLs are formatted like http://www.website.com/article-title but i want http://www.website.com/blog-title/article-title
http://www.mindscope.com is the website.

Thanks,

Mary

Hi Josue

I have an index page I created for my blog, it can be seen here > http://www.mindscope.com/mindscope-recruiting-and-staffing-blog/ . I tried to set that page as the blog when I first set it up but it changes my blog layout, so I set it back to no page for the blog. Is there a way to preserve my formatting?

Thanks,

Mary

Hi Josue,

Thanks so much! It worked :)
Now how does that impact my permalinks structure? I noticed that the permalinks on the posts are still the same, without the blog name.

Again, thanks for all your help!

Hi Josue,

That looks like it could be my solution but quick question and little more explanation before I go ahead with it: I have posts that are not blogs, for example press releases and resources that I would ideally like to have permalinks formatted with their own parent pages int he permalink not the blog title. Press Release Index page http://www.mindscope.com/company/news-and-press-releases/ and an individual press release http://www.mindscope.com/mindscope-cura-version-6-is-here-with-vastly-improved-recruitment-crm-capabilities/. I currently use categories to make them display where I need them. I thought I could use those in the permalinks but it wouldn’t solve the whole problem because as in the press release page there are two extensions I need before the press release title /company/news-and-press-releases/. Ultimately this all steams from my goal to improve google rankings and the user experience and I feel like having a proper site hierarchy would help.

Thanks!

Hi Josue,

As I mentioned above, I thought I could use the categories in the permalinks but it wouldn’t solve the whole problem because for example, on the press releases there are two extensions I need before the press release title /company/news-and-press-releases/. I am starting to feel like what I need is not possible with WordPress which is pretty disappointing. Is there anyway you guys can add a feature to make a page the parent of a post? I feel like that would solve all my issues.

Thanks!

Hi Josue,

So really there is no way to get the site to have a proper hierarchy with permalinks that show it? I can only index the pages so google understands? You mentioned that in my other thread on this issue > https://kriesi.at/support/topic/permalinks-structure/

Thank you for all your help!

Hi Josue,

Okay thanks. I think I will just leave it as is for now. Hopefully WordPress itself will address the issue in an update soon.

Thanks,

Mary
