 * How do I configure the permalink setting so that my page title show in the url?
   I set up so that WP is showing static pages.
 * I know to use %postname% for posts?
 * Is it %pagename%?
 * Thank you.

 * It works both ways, the pagenames get the pagename in the url if you use postname.
   Btw, [don’t use postname alone](http://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Permalinks#Using_only_.25postname.25)!

 * Thanks for the heads up. Is it still an issue with ver 2.5?

 * Don’t know, but it’s still in the codex, so I’m not going to try and believe 
   me, you don’t want that problem (site AND admin goes down). I juse /id/postname.
