 * When I create a post blog the default URL created is – [http://www.iphindia.org/archives/10925](http://www.iphindia.org/archives/10925)
 * I want the word** archives** to be replaced by **article**
 * I want the default URL should be -http://www.iphindia.org/article/10925
 * Is there any way to do this ..

 * use ‘article’ as a [category base](http://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Permalinks#Category_base_and_Tag_base)
   in:
 * Admin Dashboard>settings>permalinks with a custom permalink of `/%postname%/`
   and a a page or post ‘slug’ of 10925. The result will be //http:/domain.com/category
   base/post or page slug
 * This will affect all posts or pages.
