 * Hello there,
 * i have problem with my posts url links. I mean sometimes, somehow after creating
   new post, url of that post takes the form like [http://example.com/1234/](http://example.com/1234/)
   instead of [http://example.com/post-name/](http://example.com/post-name/) and
   after clicking that link on website its return page error “not found”, my direct
   links in settings are set to “post name”.
 * Anyone know what’s going on?
 * Thanks in advance

 * Is your htaccess ? read-only ? as it might be possible that even though you have
   selected in your settings to post-name but your htaccess is not being updated

 * This should help you out – go through it
    and may be u can ask your hosting company
   as well if mod_rewrite permission is available on ur host
