Nothing worse than trying to make a change to improve your site’s usability only to serve up “Page not found” notices to everyone finding you by search, bookmark, or an existing link. Love WordPress plugins like this that make it easy to build your site the right way.

Permalinks makes a blog easily get absorbed by the search engines as well as making a URL neat. Thank you for sharing this.

I remember those times when I first set up a blogsite in WordPress. It took me whole day to figure out how to come up with a very good and clean URLs in my pages and posts. It is very late that I realized I can search for it or even watch it in youtube for there are lots of tutorial in there as well as in Google – just like this posts.

Well this option is not enabled because wordpress doesn’t support this approach. coz it slows down the retrieval of posts from database. On wordpress’s site it says such URL structure is strongly not recommended for performance reasons.

but no doubt it looks a lot cleaner

Yeah, it was one of the first things I did when I installed wp.
It’s stupid that it’s not on this standard. But what is even more stupid that it’s not even in the list of defaults.
If you don’t know anything about these kind of things then you wont figure this out unless you happen to read a post like this.

I’m not sure why people recommend using /%post_id%/%postname%. I like the cleaner look of just %postname% better the way you use it. I’d assume since it is closer to the root directory that it would also be better for SEO.

Thanks for your reply and explaining it to me.

I get your point and I was doing the same thing too. But then I came across this : http://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Permalinks#Structure_Tags

It’s mentioned there : “Starting Permalinks with %postname% is strongly not recommended for performance reasons.”

you can further click on the link provided there to see how it effects the performance and can create problem under some cases. I will assume this is also the reason, blogs like mashable, techchurch also put date infront of “%post%”.

I have done a bit of research on it. I also have blog setup just like yours and it has more than 700 posts, so , for some while when I apply those changes. I’m gonna lose page rank but it will come back.
