A permalink, or permanent link, is a static web address that readers of a blog or news source can use to reference a specific blog post or entry. Permalinks are enabled by default to provide easily understandable, static web addresses (URLs) for your pages. Customized permalinks make it easier for your readers to bookmark and share your blog posts.
Permalinks are based on the installation directory of your blog. If you move or rename your blog files after setting up permalinks, any permalinks already generated for your blog posts will no longer function properly. For this and other reasons, we strongly recommend that you do not move or rename your WordPress files after activation. Learn more.
Changing your blog web address in your WordPress dashboard will also cause your permalinks to malfunction. In the General section of the WordPress console Settings menu, you'll see two fields that contain web addresses. The WordPress Address (URL) field represents your installation directory. Users who install WordPress themselves, without using the activation tools available in Web Hosting or WordPress Control Panels, can use the next field, Site Address (URL), to change their blog's homepage.
When you activate WordPress, these fields will be filled with the correct information for your blog. You should not modify these addresses unless you have moved or renamed your WordPress files. If you have activated WordPress using the tools in your plan, you should not use this field to move your blog's homepage.
If you see broken links or pages in your WordPress site or blog (for example, a 404 error), the permalink settings may need to be reset.
