# permalink with unwanted value

 * Good morning.
    I have encountered this behavior with page permalinks.
 * I create a page with the permalink settings based on its name.
    For example for
   the test page [http://www.mysite.it/test](http://www.mysite.it/test)
 * This is correctly populated and after publication this is regularly achieved.
 * If I subsequently decide to assign the same page to parent page Home I find, 
   after the save page command, a permalink that I cannot modify with this structure:
   [https://www.mysite.it/crea-il-tuo-sito-web-con-i-blocchi/test/](https://www.mysite.it/crea-il-tuo-sito-web-con-i-blocchi/test/)
 * In order to remove the “crea-il-tuo-sito-web-con-i-blocchi” I have to disassociate
   the test page from the parent page Home.
    The association from one page with 
   other parent page, different from Home, work properly. For now, therefore, I 
   am not using the association between any pages and Home; however, with the increase
   of the number of pages , this is not the best solution. The WP environment and
   all plugins are in the latest version. The theme is Twenty Twenty-One I work 
   on W7 and use firefox. Thanks in advance to those who can help me. Paolo

 * as far as I understand, the Home page (“/crea-il-tuo-sito-web-con-i-blocchi”)
   is the parent page’s slug. The test page (“/test”) is a sub-page of the parent
   page, there for the URL becomes “/crea-il-tuo-sito-web-con-i-blocchi/test/”.
 * You can change the Home page slug(“/crea-il-tuo-sito-web-con-i-blocchi”) to something
   else.

    Yes, it is possible that this is the case. The problem for me is 
   that for the 2 default pages from the Twenty Twenty-one theme, Home and Blog,
   the slug field is not configurable in the user interface as it is for the other
   pages created by me. I don’t know where and how it is possible to change the 
   slug (in the code for example?). A greeting Paolo

 * Pages is not tied to a theme. You can change any page’s slug. Screenshot: [https://i.imgur.com/UMEwaWT.png](https://i.imgur.com/UMEwaWT.png)

    The problem is that even if I put a slug of my liking when I save
   the change to the page, the unwanted text automatically reappears as a permalink.
   I solved it (temporarily at least) by assigning the home role to a page created
   by me.
