# Problem with permalink structure

 * I want my new posts to be assigned with a permalink based on the title of each
   post. Example: I create a post titled “Test”. The permalink assigned to this 
   post will be mydomain.com/test/
 * From what I have briefly researched I learned that I should enter this into the“
   Custom Structure” field: “/post-name/”
 * I did so and updated my htaccess, but this didn’t help me achieve the results
   that I wanted. Now my posts, categories, and pages are completely off. I made
   a post titled “Test” and the permalink assigned is “mydomain.com/post-name”.
 * My “Links” category is now assigned this as a permalink: “mydomain.comcategory/
   links/”. That is not a typo. There is no slash between the category and links.
 * You can view my blog to see the live effects of this issue.

 * Ah I’m sorry. This was a very simple issue that was resolved with a bit more 
   reading here on the site. I’ll be sure to do a bit more research before I post
   unnecessary topics. Thanks.
 * I forgot to add percent values before and after the “page-info” text that I entered
   into the custom field provided on the permalink settings page. I basically changed
   what I previously entered (“/page-info/”) into “/%page-info%/” to provide the
   desired results.
