Permalinks in WordPress
Sometimes you will receive 404 errors in WordPress which may be due to permalink settings
go into your WP admin area and click on settings > permalinks > save changes
Permalinks control the URL’s that WordPress generates, by default it uses “ugly” urls, so the URL to a post would be domain.com/?p=123 But with permalinks you can turn the links into something more readable
So on the permalink page, check “custom structure” and then put this in the box:
/%postname%/
And then save changes
Now on publishing a new post, the link on browser will be the name of the post instead of ugly url
For example :
domain.com/?p=123 would be replaced domain.com/Name_of_post
By default postnames appear in browser, but if the setting is lost, we can follow the steps above
