Now we know the importance of Permalinks in WordPress Blogs. Restructuring Permalinks is pretty easy if we follow some simple and easy steps. We can find Permalinks Link in WordPress Settings. Clicking on Permalinks we will get the Options, and select the option “Custom Structure”. Enter the selected permalink structure there.
Permalink Structures are like
“/Category/Postname”
“/YYYY/MM/DD/PostName”
“/Category/PostName”
Enter the above code and don not press the “Save Changes” button. We need to have one more step to follow. We need to modify the file “.htaccess” which is located on our hosting server where the WordPress Blog is installed. Check the root where the main domain of your site is located for “.htaccess”, if available then change its “Permission mode” to “777”. If the file is not available then create an empty note pad and name it as “.htaccess” and upload it to the root where your main domain is placed. Change its “Permission mode” to “777”. This can be easily done by just right click on the fine and change the attributes. Most of the FTP clients or File Manager of your Host will allow right click on the files.
Now again go back to your Permalinks Section and click on “Save Changes” button. That’s it, you are done with the changes. Check your blog for verification. Don’t forget to change the file attributes to safe mode like “660” or “644” after the process.
