 * Wordpress version 5.1.1.
    If I put the title “Test my page” the permalink becomes**
   test-my-page**. I want to be able to use backslash in the permalink ( like before),
   but it’s not possible anymore. The link resets back to the title ones. For example
   I want **test/my-page** but once I confirm it resets back to **test-my-page**.
 * Any solution for this problem ? I am already using the classic editor plugin.

 * There are certain characters that are not allowed in slugs. These characters 
   are replaced with a dash.
    If you want it to look like a folder and subfolder,
   make a `test` page and then a child page for `my-page`. If it’s really a post,
   make a `test` category or tag and then put `my-page` in that category or tag.
