 * Hi all,
 * I would like to know whether it is possible to change the Yoast slug, without
   changing the permalink. Is there a setting somewhere which I am missing?
 * I would like to change the slug to make it readerfriendly to ‘skivakantie-oostenrijk’
   
   I don’t want the permalink to change to [https://kriski.be/skivakantie/skivakantie-oostenrijk/](https://kriski.be/skivakantie/skivakantie-oostenrijk/)
   however.
 * Thanks!
 * Kind regards, Indira

 * Hello Indira,
 * Thanks for reaching out.
 * It is not possible to change the slug without your changes consequently reflecting
   on the permalinks. So if you want to change the slug to ‘skivakantie-oostenrijk’,
   that will also change in the permalinks.
