 * Hello, when I click on an individual post in my blog, the page I am taken to 
   has a URL address of [http://myblog.com/?p=5](http://myblog.com/?p=5) with the
   final number differing for each post’s page,
 * Essentially it reads [http://myblog.com/?p=5](http://myblog.com/?p=5) in the 
   address bar when I would prefer that it read
    [http://myblog.com/the-name-of-my-post](http://myblog.com/the-name-of-my-post)
 * how do I get the post name into the url address for that particular post?
 * It is very unhelpful when looking at shortstat for example as I can’t tell which
   posts are which as they’re all labeled ?p=5 and ?p=6 etc rather than having their
   names attached.
 * Any help appreciated.

 * Go to Options/Permalinks and see if the options on that page are helpful. 🙂
