Permalink Structure

So right now my site is displaying http://www.example.com/blogpost

but I want it to automatically permalink as http://www.example.com/blog/blogpost

I can’t set it this way in the permalinks section because then pages that aren’t inside the blog also get the parent of “blog” as in http://www.example.com/blog/not-a-blogpost

I have Home>BlogPage>BlogPost structure but it still insists on taking out the middle man when I go to a blog post and just auto permalinking http://www.example.com/blogpost

So I’ve searched everywhere and I can’t find a way to do this, it seems like it would be a piece of cake. Is it even possible? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

well the permalink you give affects ALL posts in your website.
though i am not clear on your requirements, i guess what you are looking out for is:
/%category%/%postname%/

Here’s an example.

http://patricktilghman.com

I have the three projects on the bottom that are seperate from the blog. I want them to have their own url structure like /filmlandscape or /project/filmlandscape

then there is the blog at the top when you click follow, I want the posts within the blog to read /follow/%postname%

Every reported solution I’ve seen leads back to the link you gave, but I can’t find anything in it with relevance to this problem.
If I’m correct it seems like I’m trying to make all posts outside of the three “projects” at the bottom have a permalink parent of /follow/

Alrite..
so for the bottom 3, use pages instead of posts.
and for blogs i think its working fine now: http://patricktilghman.com/follow/temporary

Oh thank the lord, I found the answer.

Thank you for your help, Shadez, I really appreciate the effort. The “projects” have to be posts, I can’t make them pages, it has something to do with the way the theme is set up.

Here is a link if anyone else comes across this problem.
