 * Hi
 * I’m using WP 2.8 ver., theme Atahualpa
 * I am need someone’s support with changing PERMALINK.
 * I have a page and the default permalink is:
    [http://www.crossxborder.com/?page_id=28](http://www.crossxborder.com/?page_id=28)
 * This page’s title is ‘English’ so I want to make the URL showing:
    [http://www.crossxborder.com/English](http://www.crossxborder.com/English)
 * I already checked the WP support page but I guess I need little more than that.
 * I will also need to change my submenu under English and also sub-sub menu…
 * Your support would be appreciated.

 * you will want to use
    `/%postname%/` more than likely – but review this [http://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Permalinks#Choosing_your_permalink_structure](http://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Permalinks#Choosing_your_permalink_structure)

 * thank you very much for the quick respond.
 * So now it says I need to add these to .htacess
 * <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On RewriteBase / RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}!-
   f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
 * I guess I need little more time to solve this since I am already feeling lost.
   
   I will work on it and I might post another help here…

 * Hi,
 * Once you change the permalinks and old post does not work then you need to add
   this code in htaccess file:
 * # BEGIN WordPress
 * <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    ErrorDocument 404 /index.php?error=404 RewriteEngine
   On RewriteBase / RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}!-
   d RewriteRule . /index.php [L] </IfModule>
 * # END WordPress

 * [@shane](https://wordpress.org/support/users/shane/): do you actually bother 
   reading any of the posts?
 * [@yosh66](https://wordpress.org/support/users/yosh66/): Can you use FTP to access
   your site? If so, I could talk you through creating an .htaccess file.
