# Permalink Problem

 * [13 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/permalink-problem-64/)
 * I did set up a multisite with sub-directories.
    Main site for GErman / sub-directory
   site for English.
 * Unfortunately custom permalinks on the main site do not work.
    they show like
   this: www,mysite.com/blog/post-title
 * on the sub directory site the permalinks work correct.
    [http://www.mysite.com/post-title](http://www.mysite.com/post-title).
 * What have I done wrong and how can I change this.
 * Thanks for your support.

 * You haven’t down anything wrong. WordPress Multisite did that automatically, 
   for reasons I have no idea. To correct that you would have to go to the **Network
   Admin** > **Sites** > **The Site you want** > **Edit** > **Settings** then permalink
   structure and change from /blog/%postname%/ to %postname% or whatever you desire.

 * Thanks for your reply IllusionstarDev.
    Unfortunately I cannot change the permalink
   structure to the desired result.
 * I only have the options of [http://www.mysite.com/blog/](http://www.mysite.com/blog/)
 * The standard option offers this: [http://highimpactspeaker.com/?p=123](http://highimpactspeaker.com/?p=123)
 * But on the site I cannot modify /?p=123

 * One more:
    I cannot change the permalink structure, which is really strange.

 * Thanks IllusionstarDev,
    after two hours I did figure this out. Everything is
   working now.
 * The problem was, that on the Site Appearance/Permalinks it still shows the /blog.
 * Editing a page shows the right link wihtout /blog
 * Thanks again for your time
