    hi guys

    with the new version (2.51) how does one edit the page slug for any given page? i can't find that option anywhere here on the [edit page] page.

    i see this in the page source:

    <div id="pageslugdiv" class="postbox if-js-closed">
    <h3>Page Slug</h3>
    <div class="inside">
    <input name="post_name" type="text" size="13" id="post_name" value="choose-the-type-of-property-you-want" />
    </div>
    </div>

    but there's nothing called "Page Slug" on my [edit page] page! h

    what am i missing?

    thanks for any help.

    is your post saved? - mine doesn't seem to require that, but I'm asking anyway.

    What format of permalinks are you using?

    ohhhh see that's an excellent question - I guess you can't have slugs if you can't have slugs.

    I should have thought to ask that, thanks iridiax.

    hey

    i'm set to default permas.

    did the upgrade from the prev version make a change i don't know about?

    The default permalinks don't use the slugs, so you don't need to see them.
    When you set your permalinks to something different than the default - they will appear.

    Don't pages create slugs anyway? On a site I'm currently working on, they do, even though I hadn't fiddled with the permalink settings yet.
