# URL String Issues

 * Hi all, I”m temporarily managing a site after a colleague left and have created
   a page but the URL string needs to be formatted in a specific way, .com/news/
   insight/blog-title. The colleague no longer has access to the site to easily 
   troubleshoot this issue obviously and it wasn’t covered in his handover.
 * The URL string: .com/news/insight/blog-title, relates to our top line nav and
   several widgets across the site which pull from /news OR /Insight.
 * All other pages in the /insight section follow this convention, and no matter
   what I do, this new page cuts /insight out and only publishes to /news/blog-title.
   
   The lack of /insight/ in the URL string means the new blog doesn’t appear on 
   the /insight page, nor does it appear in another page where the widget pulls 
   from the /insight page. Its creating an additional issue for my reporting as 
   we can link to the page directly but it isn’t discoverable on my website anywhere.
 * In creating the page, I used an existing /insight page as a template and have
   checked all the categories, tags and settings are the same for the original and
   new pages but am getting nowhere. Hope someone can help.

 * Hi, permalinks are set to ….com/%category%/%postname%/
 * This set up has previously allowed us to post blog content at news/insights/blog-
   post without issue so I don’t know what would be different about this post.
