# Permalink while creating post

 * Hello guys,
 * Obviously it is the default behaviour of WordPress that once I typed in a title
   for my post a permalink is generated. But what when I then change the title again?
   The permalink won’t be updated.
 * Can I change this behaviour?
 * Regards

 * You can edit the permalink on Edit Post/Edit Page.

 * Hello emsi,
 * I know but it would be much more comfortable if the permalink gets automatically
   updated when I change the title during post creation.

 * Why? The moment the first draft/revision is saved, the permalink is created. 
   If permalinks changed ad-hoc – especially on multi-author blogs – that could 
   create issues.

 * You’re right, in case of multi-author this wouldn’t make sense but for single-
   user blogs I really don’t see the point why the permalink shouldn’t be adjusted
   automatically when I change the title again.
