 * Could I change the address of pages and categories to
 * [http://www.site.com/About](http://www.site.com/About)
 * instead of
 * [http://www.site.com/?page_id=32](http://www.site.com/?page_id=32) (or ../?cat
   =5)
 * Is something that has to do with mod_rerwite?
 * Thank you 🙂

 * These are called Permalinks and you can learn all about them at [http://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Permalinks](http://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Permalinks)
 * Check the requirements as not all servers will work with them, but most do.
 * Or plunge right in on your Administration Panels and click Options, Permalinks
   and read the instructions there.
