 * Hi,
 * first of all congratulations for your great plugin.
 * I need it mainly to put my pages in order. I thought it was possible to group
   them, to reach this goal I have used the ‘child’ feature … only to find out that
   child pages have their permalink changed with the name of the container page.
   
   Is it possible to avoid this, retaining the original permalink? (website.com/
   page-name)
 * Many thanks in advance for your help!
 * A.
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fnesting-pages-without-permalink-changes%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hi, I’m using [https://wordpress.org/plugins/permalink-manager/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/permalink-manager/)
   in conjunction with this plugin and it works as you need it to.

 * Nested Pages uses the core parent/child relationship along with menu_order for
   nesting/ordering. This is the expected behavior within WordPress (this is how
   the default listing works). For now, there is no method within the plugin to 
   override that functionality.

 * Yes exactly, if he needs that functionality the Nested Pages and Permalink Manager
   plugins work very well together.

 * Many thanks for your help Chaoley and Kyle.
 * I have tried to find something similar to what I need, I was sure that since 
   many sites have TONS of pages I would find something to put them in order.
 * To my greatest surprise, there are no such plugins: Kyle, yours is the closest
   to my needs, even if it does not cover them exactly.
 * Kyle, I was asking myself, will your plugin integrate this ‘archiving’ feature
   in the future? It would be nice to get a tree structure, with the option to change,
   or not, the permalink.
 * Again, many thanks!
