Links/Permalinks | WordPress.org

How do I change the links to relate to the name of the page? For example, http://www.matthewbarley.org/?page_id=77 displays my Media page but I’d rather it read http://www.matthewbarley.org/Media.

Thanks in advance!

Admin Dashboard>Settings>Permalinks

in the text field add

/%postname%/ and save

Make sure your .htaccess file or web.config is writable by WordPress. If it is not, a message will appear on how to set it up.

Thanks, I made that change and the result is better but not quite there. For example, it says http://matthewbarley.org/sample-page/ on some pages. I inputed /%postname%/ into Custom Structure but it keeps reverting to Post name http://www.matthewbarley.org/sample-post/?

Review the requirements for Permalinks here.
