permalink and web site folder name

  • [ Moderator note: moved to How-to and Troubleshooting. ]

    Hi all,

    setting the permalink as “item name”, the url of each item is set with the name of the article (this is obvious: for example, if the item is called ” article”, the url of the website is automatically set as https://www.miosito .com / name to the possibility for the user to change it at any time).
    So, this automatism there even if the article is called as the name of a site folder wordpress ( for example , ” css ” ) , resulting in error then the opening of the page ( ” You do not have permission to access this document . ” ) .
    It should be allowed to exclude the automatic in the case of the site folders , right?
    Thank you.

  • Hi, @rudijuri. If I’m understanding correctly what you’re asking about here: if the resulting permalink for a post ends up pointing to an actual folder which exists on your server, then the folder takes precedence over the post.

    In other words, if you give a post a name that is already being used by a “real” folder (or file) on your server, then WordPress will defer to the “real” one instead of displaying the post.

    Hi girlieworks,
    Yes it’s so: in that case, if a folder has a same name of the new article, then the default permalink should be different.
    Thanks.
