Customizing permalinks beyond wp-admin/options

The post title part of a post’s permalink is generally referred to as the post slug. This can be changed on the same page that you write or edit your posts.

In WordPress 2.0, to the right of the post editing box, there is a small box labeled “Post slug” that is probably collapsed. Click on the “+” (plus sign) to expand the box.

In WordPress 2.5, under the Post title, there’s a line that looks something like the following:

Permalink: http://example.com/post-title/ Edit

Click on “Edit” to change the post slug to whatever you want.
