Options>> Permalinks

Here we find the following options (DEFAULT, D? AY NAME, MONTH and name, number and customized structure).

DEFAULT ... is the default setting that brings our blog. The default setup is the domain name we have followed since a number that matches the number of post / article that we introduced in the system, we in the database.

D? AY NAME ... urls in this configuration, we will find our domain, followed by the date and name of post.

MONTH AND NAME ... as shown find the month and post the name of our blog urls

Number in this case what we will see our domain followed by the entry number in the database of our post / entry.

Customized structure will make a special mention this option because it will allow us to fully customize our urls. Then I leave a list of all the default options that could be incorporated into the urls as would be the category of articles, post date, the name-title of our article, among others.

The basic list is as follows:

% Year%>>> The year of your article with 4 digits eg 2009% monthnum%>>> Month of year number, eg 04, if we refer to April%>> ;> Day of the month in which you create the post, always numeric and 18 would be a good example. % Hour%>>> Time of day, ie 13% minute%>>> Minute of the creation time of the article from our blog: for example 37. % Second%>>> With this command we will refer to the second of time in which we wrote our article, for example 24% postname%>>> With this command we refer to the title of our article. If this white space would automatically would separate the words with dashes, for example our title is "WELCOME TO OUR BLOG" in the url would show "welcome-to-our-blog". % Post_id%>>> This would show the id of each post, what is the id? Is the identification number of each item, each time we introduce a new entry in our blog by registering on the database, these post, are associated with an accession number. It is a natural number, integer and positive. egory%>>> Category of our article. % Author%>>> Author who wrote the article

HOW TO CHOOSE OUR FRIENDLY URLS? Well, it's something you have to bear in mind from the beginning, if you want to promote yourself, your name on the network, it is reasonable in the url you post your full name for each article you write is your name the to appear.

Ie: /% author% /% postname%

And they would show such entries www.midominio.com / Jiminy Cricket-/ this-is-the-title-of-my-post

in the following example we want to position our business blog resources for individuals and businesses, so in the field will custom structure: / recursos_empresariales / particulares_empresas / egory% /% postname%

Apart from showing the key words "corporate resources", "private" and "business" every url, category contains articles and their titles as well. As you can see, you can play with millions of possibilities. Focus on the keywords you want to promote.

Permalinks in wordpress panel and once you do steps 1 and 2, save the changes

STEP 4

Using our ftp manager, go to the root of our domain and act as follows:

If the file HTACCESS

I open it and add the content you already have, the sentence that yields wordpress mod_rewrite

If there is no htaccess file

Climb the txt file that generated in Step 2. And rename it by removing the ". Txt" and adds one point ahead in the following manner leaving the file name:

>>>>>> htaccess.txt. htaccess

RECOMMENDATIONS

a) Verify that there really is not that file (htaccess) and not hidden. b) Backing up the. htaccess to replace it if it already exists in case of mistake or fault. c) For advanced users you can put htaccess file read-only permissions. d) post or modify previous entries automatically. e) Be careful with spaces, is a very typical failure to modify and configure these options, do not put spaces or even complete custom structure, nor within the htaccess file if so would not work.
